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.
tender offerfinancial
A tender offer is a proposal made by a person or company to buy shares from existing shareholders at a set price, usually higher than the current market value, within a specific time frame. It matters to investors because it can lead to a change in ownership or control of a company, and shareholders must decide whether to sell their shares at the offered price.
Rule 144A is a regulation that makes it easier for companies to sell private bonds to large investors without going through all the usual rules that apply to public sales. It matters because it helps companies raise money more quickly and privately, often attracting big investors looking for special deals.
regulation sregulatory
Regulation S is a set of rules that allows companies to sell securities (like shares or bonds) to investors outside the United States without having to follow all U.S. securities laws. It matters because it makes it easier for companies to raise money from international investors while still complying with U.S. regulations.
securities actregulatory
A securities act is a law that governs the offering, sale and disclosure of stocks, bonds and other investment products to the public. It requires companies to provide clear, truthful information—like a product label for an investment—so buyers can understand risks and value before they invest. For investors, these rules reduce fraud, promote transparency, and help ensure fair access to market information.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Oceaneering International, Inc. (“Oceaneering”) (NYSE: OII) announced today that it intends to offer $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2034 (the “2034 Notes”) in a private placement to eligible purchasers.
Oceaneering intends to use the net proceeds from the proposed offering, together with cash on hand, if necessary, to fund the purchase of any and all of its 6.000% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Tender Notes”) validly tendered and accepted for purchase in the concurrent cash tender offer announced today (the “Tender Offer”). If the Tender Offer is not consummated or the net proceeds from the offering exceed the total consideration payable in the Tender Offer, Oceaneering intends to use the remaining net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment, redemption, or repurchase of outstanding indebtedness.
The 2034 Notes will be offered and sold to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The offer and sale of the 2034 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Any offers of the 2034 Notes will be made in the United States only by means of a private offering memorandum pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
This press release does not constitute an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any of the Tender Notes. The Tender Offer is being made only by and pursuant to, and on the terms and conditions set forth in, the Offer to Purchase dated June 24, 2026.
