DigitalOcean (NYSE:DOCN) plans a cash repurchase of up to $500.0 million aggregate principal of its 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2030 through privately negotiated transactions with certain noteholders. The repurchase will be funded by a concurrent registered direct offering of common stock to participating noteholders, made from an effective shelf registration.
According to DigitalOcean, the transaction is expected to reduce net leverage with minimal change in cash or shares outstanding. Repurchased notes will be retired, and new shares are expected to be largely offset by shares underlying the repurchased notes. The company intends to use its existing share repurchase authorization to repurchase any incremental shares issued to avoid dilution. Pricing of the repurchase will be tied to the volume-weighted average price of the stock over the trading day expected to be July 15, 2026, with closing targeted for July 23, 2026, subject to customary conditions. The company also notes that hedge-related trading by noteholders may be substantial relative to average volume and could adversely affect the stock price.
