Tandem Diabetes Care, Inc. (NASDAQ: TNDM), a global insulin
delivery and diabetes technology company, announced today that it
intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors,
$250.0 million aggregate principal amount of its Convertible Senior
Notes due 2029 (the “notes”) in a private placement (the
“offering”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified
institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Tandem also intends to
grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase,
within the 13-day period beginning on, and including, the first
date on which the notes are issued, up to an additional $37.5
million principal amount of notes.
The notes will be general unsecured obligations of Tandem and
will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears. Upon
conversion, Tandem will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash,
shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of
its common stock, at its election. The interest rate, initial
conversion rate and other terms of the notes will be determined at
the time of pricing of the offering.
Tandem expects to use the net proceeds from the offering,
together with cash on hand, to pay the cost of the capped call
transactions described below, to repurchase for cash certain of its
1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 notes”) and to
repurchase up to $30.0 million of its common stock in privately
negotiated transactions, each as described below. If the initial
purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes,
Tandem expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale
of the additional notes to enter into additional capped call
transactions and the remainder for general corporate purposes,
which may include additional repurchases of the 2025 notes from
time to time following this offering, or the repayment at maturity,
of the 2025 notes.
In connection with the pricing of the notes, Tandem expects to
enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions with one
or more of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates
and/or certain other financial institutions (the “option
counterparties”). The capped call transactions will cover, subject
to customary adjustments, the number of shares of Tandem’s common
stock that will initially underlie the notes. The capped call
transactions are expected to offset the dilution to Tandem’s common
stock as a result of any conversion of the notes, with such offset
subject to a cap.
In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the
capped call transactions, Tandem expects that the option
counterparties or their respective affiliates will enter into
various derivative transactions with respect to Tandem’s common
stock and/or purchase shares of Tandem’s common stock concurrently
with or shortly after the pricing of the notes, including with, or
from, certain investors in the notes. This activity could increase
(or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of
Tandem’s common stock or the notes at that time.
In addition, Tandem expects that the option counterparties or
their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by
entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to
Tandem’s common stock and/or purchasing or selling shares of
Tandem’s common stock or other securities of Tandem in secondary
market transactions following the pricing of the notes and prior to
the maturity of the notes (and are likely to do so during the
observation period relating to any conversion of the notes on or
after December 15, 2028 that is not in connection with a
redemption, or, to the extent Tandem elects to unwind a portion of
the capped call transactions, following any repurchase, redemption,
exchange or early conversion of the notes). This activity could
also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price
of Tandem’s common stock or the notes, which could affect a
noteholder's ability to convert its notes and, to the extent the
activity occurs following conversion or during any observation
period related to a conversion of notes, it could affect the amount
and value of the consideration that a noteholder will receive upon
conversion of such notes.
Concurrently with the pricing of the notes in the offering,
Tandem expects to enter into one or more privately negotiated
transactions with one or more holders of the 2025 notes to
repurchase for cash certain of its 2025 notes on terms to be
negotiated with each holder (each, a "note repurchase
transaction"). The terms of each note repurchase transaction will
depend on a variety of factors. No assurance can be given as to how
much, if any, of the 2025 notes will be repurchased or the terms on
which they will be repurchased. This press release is not an offer
to repurchase the 2025 notes, and the offering of the notes is not
contingent upon the repurchase of the 2025 notes.
In connection with any note repurchase transaction, Tandem
expects that holders of the 2025 notes who agree to have their 2025
notes repurchased and who have hedged their equity price risk with
respect to such notes (the “hedged holders”) will unwind all or
part of their hedge positions by buying Tandem’s common stock
and/or entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions
with respect to Tandem’s common stock. The amount of Tandem’s
common stock to be purchased by the hedged holders or in connection
with such derivative transactions may be substantial in relation to
the historical average daily trading volume of Tandem’s common
stock. This activity by the hedged holders could increase (or
reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of Tandem’s
common stock, including concurrently with the pricing of the notes,
resulting in a higher effective conversion price of the notes.
Tandem cannot predict the magnitude of such market activity or the
overall effect it will have on the price of the notes or Tandem’s
common stock.
Additionally, in connection with the issuance of the 2025 notes,
Tandem entered into capped call transactions (the “existing option
transactions”) with certain financial institutions (the “existing
option counterparties”). To the extent Tandem effects any note
repurchase transactions, it intends to enter into agreements with
the existing option counterparties to terminate a portion of the
existing option transactions in a notional amount corresponding to
the amount of 2025 notes repurchased (such terminations, the
“unwind transactions”). In connection with any such termination of
any of the existing option transactions, Tandem expects such
existing option counterparties and/or their respective affiliates
will unwind various derivatives with respect to Tandem’s common
stock and/or sell shares of Tandem’s common stock concurrently with
or shortly after pricing of the notes. This activity could decrease
(or reduce the size of any increase in) the market price of
Tandem’s common stock at that time and could decrease (or reduce
the size of any increase in) the market value of the notes.
As discussed above, Tandem also intends to use up to $30.0
million of the net proceeds from the offering to repurchase shares
of its common stock. Tandem expects to repurchase such shares from
purchasers of notes in the offering in privately negotiated
transactions with or through one of the initial purchasers or its
affiliate concurrently with the pricing of the offering (the “share
repurchases”), and Tandem expects the purchase price per share of
Tandem’s common stock repurchased in the share repurchases to equal
the closing price per share of Tandem’s common stock on the date of
pricing of the offering. These share repurchases could increase, or
reduce the size of any decrease in, the market price of Tandem’s
common stock, including concurrently with the pricing of the notes,
resulting in a higher effective conversion price for the notes. No
assurance can be given as to how much, if any, of Tandem’s common
stock will be repurchased or the terms on which they will be
repurchased. This press release is not an offer to repurchase
Tandem’s common stock, and the offering of the notes is not
contingent upon the repurchase of Tandem’s common stock.
The notes and any shares of Tandem’s common stock issuable upon
conversion of the notes have not been and will not be registered
under the Securities Act, any state securities laws or the
securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so
registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction
not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and other applicable securities laws.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a
solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities nor shall
there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction
in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful
prior to the registration or qualification thereof under the
securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
