First Majestic Completes US$350 Million Offering of Convertible Senior Notes
Rhea-AI Summary
First Majestic (NYSE: AG) closed a US$350 million offering of 0.125% unsecured convertible senior notes due 2031, consisting of US$300 million initial notes plus a US$50 million over-allotment.
The initial conversion rate is 44.7227 shares per US$1,000 (≈US$22.36 per share). A portion of proceeds will repurchase approximately US$174.7 million principal of existing 0.375% convertible notes due 2027 for about US$214.7 million; remaining net proceeds are for general corporate purposes and strategic opportunities.
The notes and underlying shares are not registered under the U.S. Securities Act and rely on exemptions for any distributions in Canada and the U.S.
Positive
- US$350M new financing closed

- Repurchase reduces 2027 convertible principal by US$174.7M
Negative
- Repurchase paid ~US$214.7M for US$174.7M principal (cash premium)
- New convertible issuance creates potential dilution at US$22.36 conversion price

Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 03 | Convertible notes pricing | Negative | -1.4% | Priced US$300–350M 0.125% 2031 convertible notes with set conversion terms. |
| Dec 03 | Convertible notes launch | Negative | -1.4% | Announced launch of US$300M 2031 convertible note offering and use of proceeds. |
| Nov 20 | Equity stake reduction | Negative | -6.9% | Disclosed sale of 1,060,500 Silver Dollar Resources shares and stake reduction. |
| Nov 05 | Large share sale | Negative | -7.7% | Sold 17.5M Sierra Madre shares for CAD$23.275M gross proceeds. |
| Nov 05 | Earnings and dividend | Positive | -7.7% | Reported record Q3 2025 production, revenue and cash with quarterly dividend. |
Recent corporate actions and even strong Q3 results were followed by negative price reactions, suggesting a tendency for weakness around capital markets and portfolio news.
Over the last few months, First Majestic reported record Q3 2025 results with revenue of $285.1M, EBITDA of $128.6M, free cash flow of $98.8M and cash of $568.8M, yet the stock fell 7.7% after that release. The company also sold sizeable positions in Sierra Madre and Silver Dollar, with those early warning releases coinciding with further declines. More recently, it launched and priced a US$300M–350M convertible notes offering, which saw a 1.38% negative reaction, and today’s closing of that deal follows this sequence of financing and portfolio adjustments.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement confirms closing of First Majestic’s US$350M 0.125% convertible note financing, with proceeds partly used to repurchase about US$174.7M of 2027 notes for roughly US$214.7M. In context of recent record Q3 results and prior equity stake sales, it adds another balance sheet-focused step. Investors may watch how the new notes’ US$22.36 conversion price, future debt profile, and subsequent capital allocation decisions interact with operational performance.
