Key Terms

cash tender offer, senior notes, indenture, redemption, +4 more

8 terms

cash tender offer financial

"announced the final results and expiration of its previously announced cash tender offer"

A cash tender offer is a public proposal in which an individual or group offers to buy a set number of a company's shares directly from shareholders for a specified cash price during a limited time. It matters to investors because it gives a clear, immediate chance to sell shares at a known price — like a store offering to buy back items at a posted rate — and can affect the stock’s market price, ownership control and liquidity.

senior notes financial

"tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase any and all of the $500 million... 6.000% Senior Notes due 2029"

Senior notes are a type of loan that a company borrows from investors, promising to pay it back with interest. They are called "senior" because in case the company faces financial trouble, these lenders are paid back before others. This makes senior notes safer for investors compared to other types of loans or bonds.

indenture regulatory

"pursuant to the indenture governing the 2029 Notes, to redeem (the "Redemption")"

An indenture is a legal agreement between a company that borrows money by issuing bonds and the people who buy those bonds. It explains the rules the company must follow, like paying back the money and keeping certain financial promises. This document helps both sides understand their rights and responsibilities.

redemption financial

"to redeem (the "Redemption") all 2029 Notes not purchased in the Tender Offer"

Redemption is when an issuer or holder settles a financial instrument by paying it off or returning it for cash, such as a bond being paid at maturity or a preferred share bought back by the company. It matters to investors because redemption changes when and how they get their money back, can cut off future income from the investment, and affects the issuer’s cash needs—think of it like a loan being paid off early or a store refunding a returned purchase.

redemption price financial

"at a redemption price of 101.50% of the principal amount thereof"

The redemption price is the amount of money a person receives when they sell or redeem a bond or investment before it matures. It’s important because it determines how much you get back and can affect your overall profit or loss on the investment. Think of it like the price you get when returning a gift card early—it's the value you receive at that time.

guaranteed delivery procedures regulatory

"exclude any 2029 Notes that may be tendered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures"

Guaranteed delivery procedures are a settlement arrangement that lets a buyer or seller complete a trade even when the actual shares or cash cannot be delivered immediately, by promising to provide them within a short, specified window. For investors this works like reserving and paying for an item that will be shipped later: it reduces the risk of a failed trade and allows participation in offerings or market trades despite paperwork or transfer delays, but it also means you should watch the final settlement date and counterparty obligations.

notice of guaranteed delivery regulatory

"the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (each as defined below)"

A notice of guaranteed delivery is a short, written promise used when investors want to sell shares in a tender offer but cannot deliver the physical or electronic share certificates by the offer deadline. It acts like a post-dated IOU: the seller guarantees they will provide the required documents within a short, specified window while still qualifying for the offer’s price and terms. For investors this preserves their right to participate in a deal while giving extra time to complete paperwork, but it also creates a reliance on timely follow-through to receive payment.

dealer manager financial

"CNX retained Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to serve as the Dealer Manager for the Tender Offer"

A dealer manager is a financial firm — often a broker-dealer or investment bank — that organizes, markets and coordinates the sale of a new securities offering (such as bonds or structured products) to other brokers and investors. Think of it as the project manager and sales team for the deal: its pricing choices, marketing reach and allocation decisions influence how widely the issue is distributed, how competitively it is priced, and how easy it is for investors to buy or sell afterward.

PITTSBURGH, Feb. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CNX Resources Corporation (NYSE: CNX) ("CNX") today announced the final results and expiration of its previously announced cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase any and all of the $500 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 6.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes"). As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 23, 2026, the expiration time for the Tender Offer (the "Expiration Time"), CNX had received tenders for an aggregate principal amount of $420,200,000 of the outstanding 2029 Notes, or 84.04% of the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes outstanding. These amounts exclude any 2029 Notes that may be tendered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the Offer to Purchase and the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (each as defined below).

The Tender Offer was made pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the Offer to Purchase, dated February 17, 2026 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related notice of guaranteed delivery for the Tender Offer (the "Notice of Guaranteed Delivery").

In accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer, CNX will pay the purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the 2029 Notes validly tendered prior to the Expiration Time or pursuant to the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery on February 26, 2026 (the "Settlement Date"). The Purchase Price to be paid for the 2029 Notes is $1,016.10 for each $1,000 principal amount of the 2029 Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2029 Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the Settlement Date. For avoidance of doubt, interest on the 2029 Notes will cease to accrue on the Settlement Date for all 2029 Notes accepted in the Tender Offer. All 2029 Notes purchased on the Settlement Date will subsequently be retired.

Concurrently with the commencement of the Tender Offer, CNX issued a conditional notice, pursuant to the indenture governing the 2029 Notes, to redeem (the "Redemption") all 2029 Notes not purchased in the Tender Offer, at a redemption price of 101.50% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date of March 19, 2026 (the "redemption date"). The Redemption is conditioned on the closing of CNX's contemporaneous offering of new senior notes (the "new notes offering") and its receipt of net proceeds from such offering, and there can be no assurance the Redemption will be completed. The Redemption may be terminated and the redemption notice may be rescinded in the event such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date.

CNX retained Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to serve as the Dealer Manager for the Tender Offer. Global Bondholder Services Corporation served as the tender agent and information agent for the Tender Offer.
