Cerence (NASDAQ: CRNC) has entered into privately negotiated transactions to repurchase $10 million aggregate principal of its 1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028. The notes will be repurchased for cash at 92.75% of principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the settlement date.
According to Cerence, buying the notes below par reflects a strategic use of cash intended to reduce interest expense, lower leverage, and remove potential dilution from refinancing the repurchased notes. The company said it will continue to assess its cash and market conditions for the remaining $170 million of notes outstanding through maturity in 2028.
Cerence (NASDAQ: CRNC) announced that Advanced Smart Mobility (AS Mobi) is deploying Cerence Emergency Vehicle Detection (EVD) in its autonomous bus platform field trials across multiple regions in Japan.

According to Cerence, this is its first autonomous bus program in Japan and the first deployment of EVD using exterior microphones. EVD supports more than 1,500 sirens across 47 countries and is designed to distinguish emergency sirens from traffic and environmental noise, complementing cameras, radar, and LiDAR. AS Mobi targets future commercial deployment of its autonomous transportation services in 2027 as it seeks to address Japan’s aging population and driver shortages.
