CyberArk Software Ltd. Announces Pricing of Upsized Private Offering of $1.1 billion of 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030

NEWTON, Mass. & PETACH TIKVA, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CyberArk Software Ltd. (Nasdaq: CYBR) (“CyberArk”), the global leader in identity security, today announced the pricing of $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Notes”) in a private offering (the “Offering”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The offering size was increased from the previously announced offering size of $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes. In connection with the Offering, CyberArk has granted the initial purchasers of the Notes a 13-day option to purchase up to an additional $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The sale of the Notes to the initial purchasers is expected to settle on June 10, 2025 subject to customary closing conditions.

The Notes will not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. The Notes will mature on June 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date.

CyberArk may redeem for cash (1) all of the Notes at any time on or prior to the 31st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date if certain tax-related events occur and (2) all or any portion (subject to certain limitations) of the Notes, at any time, and from time to time, on or after June 20, 2028, and on or before the 31^st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at its option at any time and from time to time, if the last reported sale price per share of CyberArk’s ordinary shares exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Holders of the Notes will have the right to require CyberArk to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the Notes) at a cash purchase price of 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In connection with certain corporate events or following CyberArk’s delivery of a notice of redemption, CyberArk will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for holders who elect to convert their Notes in connection with such corporate event or notice of redemption, as the case may be.

The Notes will be convertible based on an initial conversion rate of 1.9614 ordinary shares of CyberArk per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $509.84 per share, which represents a conversion premium of approximately 30.0% to the last reported sale price of CyberArk’s ordinary shares on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 5, 2025). Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding February 15, 2030, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders of the Notes only upon the satisfaction of specified conditions and during certain periods. On or after February 15, 2030 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day preceding the maturity date, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders of Notes at any time regardless of these conditions. Conversions of the Notes will be settled in cash, ordinary shares of CyberArk or a combination thereof, at CyberArk’s election.

When issued, the Notes will be CyberArk’s senior unsecured obligations and will rank senior in right of payment to any of CyberArk’s unsecured indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; equal in right of payment to any of CyberArk’s unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of CyberArk’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of CyberArk’s subsidiaries.

In connection with the pricing of the Notes, CyberArk entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain of the initial purchasers of the Offering and/or their respective affiliates and/or other financial institutions (in this capacity, the “Option Counterparties”). The capped call transactions are expected to cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes, up to the number of shares of CyberArk’s ordinary shares that will initially underlie the Notes. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Notes, then CyberArk expects to enter into additional capped call transactions with the Option Counterparties. The capped call transactions are expected to generally reduce the potential dilution to the ordinary shares of CyberArk upon any conversion of Notes and/or to offset any cash payments CyberArk is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the converted Notes, as the case may be, in the event that the market price of CyberArk’s ordinary shares, as measured under the terms of the capped call transactions, is greater than the strike price of the capped call transactions, with such reduction of potential dilution and/or offset of cash payments subject to a cap. The cap price of the capped call transactions will initially be approximately $686.32 per share, which represents a premium of approximately 75.0% over the last reported sale price of the ordinary shares of CyberArk of $392.18 per share on June 5, 2025, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

CyberArk has been advised that, in connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the Option Counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the ordinary shares of CyberArk concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes. This activity could have the effect of increasing (or reducing the size of any decrease in) the market price of the ordinary shares or the Notes at that time. In addition, the Option Counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to the ordinary shares and/or by purchasing or selling ordinary shares or other securities of CyberArk in secondary market transactions from time to time prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so following any conversion, repurchase or redemption of the Notes, in each case, if CyberArk exercises the relevant election under the capped call transactions, and in connection with any negotiated unwind or modification of the capped call transactions). This activity could also cause an increase or avoid a decrease in the market price of the ordinary shares of CyberArk or the Notes, which could affect the ability of holders of Notes to convert the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of the Notes, it could affect the number of ordinary shares, if any, and value of the consideration that holders of Notes will receive upon conversion of the Notes.

CyberArk estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $1,072.4 million (or $1,218.8 million if the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Notes), after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by CyberArk. CyberArk intends to use approximately $96.8 million of the net proceeds from the Offering to pay the cost of the capped call transactions, and the remaining net proceeds for working capital or other general corporate purposes. CyberArk may also use a portion of the net proceeds to make acquisitions or investments. However, CyberArk has not entered into any agreements or commitments for any specific acquisition or investment at this time. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Notes, CyberArk expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes to enter into additional capped call transactions with the Option Counterparties and for general corporate purposes. Pending these uses, CyberArk intends to invest the net proceeds in high-quality, short-term fixed income instruments which include corporate, financial institution, federal agency or U.S. government obligations.

The Notes were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The offer and sale of the Notes and the ordinary shares of CyberArk issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, the Notes and such ordinary shares, if any, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any offer or sale of, the Notes (or any ordinary shares of CyberArk issuable upon conversion of the Notes) in any state or jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification thereof under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
