Western Asset High Yield Defined Opportunity Fund Inc. (HYI) filed its final amendment to Schedule TO reporting the outcome of its issuer tender offer.
The Fund offered to buy back up to 100 % of outstanding common shares at 100 % of net asset value (NAV). Key results:
- Expiration: 21-Jul-2025, 5:00 p.m. ET
- Shares tendered: 9,852,972
- Purchase price: $12.09 per share (NAV on 21-Jul-2025)
Total cash paid is roughly $119 million (9.85 M × $12.09). All other terms of the Offer to Purchase remain unchanged.
The transaction lets participating holders exit at NAV, eliminating any market-price discount. For remaining investors, the reduced share count may lift per-share metrics but also shrinks assets under management and could dampen liquidity.
