Gorilla Technology Group Inc. Announces Pricing of $125 Million Senior Unsecured Convertible Bond Offering to Commence NeutraDC Batam Project in Indonesia
Rhea-AI Summary
Gorilla Technology Group (NASDAQ: GRRR) priced $125 million of 7.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes, Series B due June 15, 2031, in a private placement to institutional investors under Section 4(a)(2). The offering is expected to close on or about July 17, 2026, subject to customary conditions.
The Bonds will be issued at par, pay 7.50% interest semi-annually in arrears, and are convertible at an initial rate of 39.2425 ordinary shares per $1,000, implying a conversion price of about $25.4826 per share. This reflects a 52% premium to the July 14, 2026 closing price of $16.77 and includes a downward reset floor of $8.00 and an upward reset cap of $31.85325 (a 90% premium). Interest may be paid in cash or, at the company’s election and subject to conditions, in ordinary shares.
According to Gorilla, net proceeds will fund advance payments to secure committed data center capacity and begin equity purchases of data center equipment for its NeutraDC Batam project in Indonesia, with any remainder for general corporate purposes. The securities are unregistered; Gorilla plans to file a resale registration statement on Form F-3 for the Bonds and underlying shares.
