Conversion and Redemption Terms

These include covering the cost of capped call transactions, repurchasing a portion of its 1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (2025 notes), and repurchasing common stock through privately negotiated transactions. 

In the event of the initial purchasers exercising their option, the remainder of the proceeds will be allocated for general corporate purposes.

Notably, holders have the right to convert their notes under specific conditions before December 15, 2028, with a conversion rate initially set at 28.9361 shares of Tandem’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $34.56 per share. 

Tandem is restricted from redeeming the notes before March 22, 2027, but may opt to redeem them afterward under certain conditions.

Capped Call Transactions 

To mitigate dilution to its common stock resulting from any conversion of the notes, Tandem has entered into capped call transactions. 

Additionally, Tandem anticipates hedging activities by option counterparties, which may impact the market price of its common stock and the notes.

Repurchasing of Notes 

Concurrently with the notes offering, Tandem has entered into privately negotiated transactions to repurchase approximately $246.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 2025 notes, further reinforcing its financial strategy.
