<div id="readability-page-1"><article>DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (“Advanced Energy”) (Nasdaq: AEIS), a global leader in highly engineered, precision power conversion, measurement, and control solutions, announced today the closing of its previously announced private offering of $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “notes”), which amount includes the full exercise of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase an additional $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the notes.Advanced Energy received net proceeds from the offering of the notes of approximately $1,128.1 million after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and after deducting offering expenses payable by Advanced Energy. Advanced Energy used $69.0 million of the net proceeds from the offering to pay the cost of the capped call transactions it entered into in connection with the offering, as described below. In addition, Advanced Energy paid approximately $442.4 million of the net proceeds from the offering and issued approximately 1.98 million shares of its common stock, collectively, in exchange for approximately $438.3 million aggregate principal amount of its previously issued 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 convertible notes”), as described below. Advanced Energy intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including potential retirement of the remaining 2028 convertible notes.The notes will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the notes will not accrete. The notes will mature on May 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The initial conversion rate is 1.9655 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $508.78 per share, representing a premium of approximately 50% over the closing price of the common stock of $339.19 per share on May 13, 2026. Advanced Energy will satisfy any conversion elections by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted, and paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at Advanced Energy’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of its conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted.Advanced Energy may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, at its option, on or after May 21, 2029 if the last reported sale price of Advanced Energy’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading-day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which Advanced Energy provides the related notice of redemption. In addition, Advanced Energy may redeem for cash all, but not less than all, of the notes at any time if the amount of the notes that remains outstanding is less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes initially issued under the indenture, subject to certain conditions described in the indenture. The redemption price for any such redemption will be 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant redemption date. If Advanced Energy undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the notes), holders may require Advanced Energy to repurchase for cash all or part of their notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.In connection with the pricing of the notes and the exercise of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional notes, Advanced Energy entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the notes, the same number of shares of common stock initially underlying the notes.The cap price of the capped call transactions is $678.38 per share, which represents a premium of 100.0% over the last reported sale price of Advanced Energy’s common stock of $339.19 per share on May 13, 2026, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.Contemporaneously with the pricing of the notes in the offering, Advanced Energy entered into certain separate and individually negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2028 convertible notes to exchange approximately $438.3 million aggregate principal amount of the 2028 convertible notes for approximately $442.4 million in cash and approximately 1.98 million shares of Advanced Energy’s common stock on terms that were negotiated separately with each holder (each, a “note exchange” and collectively, the “2028 convertible note exchanges”). The terms of each note exchange depended on several factors, including the market price of Advanced Energy’s common stock and the trading price of the 2028 convertible notes at the time of each such note exchange. Advanced Energy expects that holders of the 2028 convertible notes that exchanged their 2028 convertible notes may enter into or unwind various derivatives with respect to Advanced Energy’s common stock (including entering into derivatives with one or more of the initial purchasers in the offering or their respective affiliates) and/or purchase or sell shares of Advanced Energy’s common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the notes. This activity could affect the market price of Advanced Energy’s common stock.In connection with the issuance of the 2028 convertible notes, Advanced Energy entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the “existing convertible note hedge transactions”) with certain financial institutions (the “existing counterparties”). Advanced Energy also entered into separate warrant transactions (the “existing warrant transactions”) with the existing counterparties. In connection with the 2028 convertible note exchanges, Advanced Energy entered into agreements with the existing counterparties to unwind a portion of: (i) the existing convertible note hedge transactions in a notional amount corresponding to the principal amount of the 2028 convertible notes exchanged and (ii) the existing warrant transactions with respect to a number of shares equal to the notional shares underlying such 2028 convertible notes exchanged. In connection with such terminations and the related unwinding of the existing hedge position of the existing counterparties with respect to such transactions, such existing counterparties and/or their respective affiliates may sell shares of Advanced Energy’s common stock in secondary market transactions and/or enter into or unwind various derivative transactions with respect to Advanced Energy’s common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the notes. This activity could affect the market price of Advanced Energy’s common stock. In connection with such terminations, Advanced Energy received on a net basis from the existing counterparties an aggregate of approximately $44.6 million.The notes were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The notes and any shares of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any U.S. state securities laws or in any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.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 under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. This press release does not constitute an offer to purchase or notice of redemption with respect to the 2028 convertible notes.About Advanced EnergyAdvanced Energy Industries, Inc.
