SiTime (NASDAQ: SITM) raises $1.35B via 0% convertible notes maturing 2031
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
SiTime Corporation completed a registered underwritten public offering of $1.35 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031. The notes are unsecured, pay no regular interest, and mature on June 15, 2031 unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.
Holders can convert based on trading-price and stock-price conditions before March 15, 2031, and at any time thereafter until shortly before maturity. The initial conversion rate is 0.9611 shares per $1,000, equal to an initial conversion price of about $1,040.47 per share, a 50% premium to the May 19, 2026 stock price.
SiTime received approximately $1.32 billion in net proceeds and spent $121.5 million on capped call transactions with a cap price of $1,734.15 per share, designed to reduce potential dilution or excess cash payments upon conversion. The remaining proceeds are earmarked mainly to fund part of the cash consideration for acquiring certain timing-business assets from Renesas Electronics Corporation and for general corporate purposes.

Insights
SiTime raises $1.35B via 0% convertible notes, largely to fund a strategic asset acquisition.
SiTime issued $1.35 billion of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031, securing long-dated, non-cash interest financing. The initial conversion price of about $1,040.47 per share reflects a 50% premium to the May 19, 2026 stock price, limiting immediate dilution.
Net proceeds of about $1.32 billion are allocated first to a $121.5 million capped call with a $1,734.15 cap, then primarily toward the cash portion of the Renesas timing-business asset acquisition, with any remainder for general corporate uses. Redemption, conversion and “fundamental change” provisions add standard investor protections and optionality.
Future filings on the Renesas asset acquisition and SiTime’s balance sheet evolution for periods after June 15, 2031 maturity, as applicable, will clarify how this large convertible layer interacts with earnings, leverage and equity dilution over time.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Agreement.
Completion of Convertible Senior Notes Offering
On May 22, 2026, SiTime Corporation (the “Company”) completed its registered underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of $1.35 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC as representatives of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”) described in Item 8.01 below, which includes $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes sold pursuant to the full exercise of the Underwriters’ option to purchase additional Notes, solely to cover over-allotments.
The Notes were offered and sold in a public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 26, 2024, which automatically became effective upon filing (File No. 333-277373), including the prospectus supplement filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) under the Securities Act, dated May 22, 2026, to the prospectus contained in the registration statement.
Base Indenture and Supplemental Indenture
The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated May 22, 2026 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (the “Trustee”), as trustee, as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 22, 2026 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.
The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and will not bear regular interest and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. The Notes will mature on June 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Special interest will accrue on the Notes in the circumstances and at the rates described in the Indenture. The Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2031, only upon satisfaction of one or more of the following conditions: (1) at any time during the 30 consecutive trading day period beginning on, and including, the 21st trading day of any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2026, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), exceeds 130% of the conversion price for each of at least five trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the first 20 consecutive trading days of such calendar quarter; (2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price (as defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Common Stock and the conversion rate for the Notes on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as set forth in the Indenture. On or after March 15, 2031 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes at their option at any time, regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture.
The conversion rate for the Notes will initially be 0.9611 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $1,040.47 per share of Common Stock. The initial conversion price of the Notes represents a premium of approximately 50% to the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on May 19, 2026. The conversion rate for the Notes is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the Indenture but will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid special interest, if any. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the Notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the Notes for a holder who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called (or deemed called, in the case of an optional redemption) for redemption during the related redemption period (as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be.
The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to June 20, 2029, except as described below. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation set forth in the Indenture), at its option, on a redemption date on or after June 20, 2029 if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company redeems less than all the outstanding Notes, at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of, and after giving effect to, delivery of the relevant notice of redemption. In addition, the Company may also redeem for cash all, but not less than all, of the Notes at any time if the principal amount of the Notes outstanding at such time is less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes initially issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.
If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), then, subject to certain conditions and except as set forth in the Indenture, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
The Indenture includes customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default. The following events are considered “events of default” under the Indenture:
| • | default in any payment of interest on any Note when due and payable, and the default continues for a period of 30 days; |
| • | default in the payment of principal of any Note when due and payable at the maturity date, upon any optional redemption, upon any cleanup redemption, upon any required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise; |
| • | failure by the Company to comply with its obligation to convert the Notes in accordance with the Indenture upon exercise of a holder’s conversion right and such failure continues for three business days; |
| • | failure by the Company to give (i) a fundamental change company notice or notice of a make-whole fundamental change (each as described in the Indenture), in either case when due and such failure continues for two business days, or (ii) notice of a specified corporate transaction or event (each as described in the Indenture) when due and such failure continues for one business day; |
| • | failure by the Company to comply with its obligations in respect of any consolidation, merger or sale of assets; |
| • | failure by the Company for 60 days after written notice from the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding has been received by the Company to comply with any of the Company’s other agreements in the Notes or the Indenture; |
| • | default by the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to any mortgage, agreement or other instrument under which there may be outstanding, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness for money borrowed with a principal amount in excess of $100,000,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) in the aggregate of the Company and/or any such significant subsidiary, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, (i) resulting in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to its stated maturity date or (ii) constituting a failure to pay the principal of any such indebtedness when due and payable (after the expiration of all applicable grace periods) at its stated maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise, and in the cases of clauses (i) and (ii), such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled or such failure to pay or default shall not have been cured or waived, or such indebtedness is not paid or discharged, as the case may be, within 30 days after written notice to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in accordance with the Indenture; and |
| • | certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or any of the Company’s significant subsidiaries. |
If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur with respect to the Company, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all of the then outstanding Notes shall automatically become due and payable. If an event of default, other than certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default with respect to the Company, occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the outstanding Notes to be automatically and immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture provides that, to the extent the Company so elects, the sole remedy for an event of default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture will, for the first 365 days after the occurrence of such an event of default, consist exclusively of the right to receive special interest on the Notes.
The Indenture provides that the Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to, another person (other than any such sale, conveyance, transfer or lease to one or more of the Company’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries), unless: (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if not the Company) is a qualified successor entity (as defined in the Indenture) (such qualified successor entity, the “successor entity”) organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and such successor entity (if not the Company) expressly assumes by supplemental indenture all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture; and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture.
A copy of the Base Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and a copy of the Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2 (including the form of the Notes included in Exhibit 4.2) and is incorporated herein by reference (and this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document).
Capped Call Transactions
On May 19, 2026, in connection with the pricing of the Notes, and on May 20, 2026, in connection with the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional Notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with the underwriters or their affiliates and certain other financial institutions, pursuant to capped call confirmations in substantially the form filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference (and this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Common Stock upon any conversion of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on a cap price initially equal to $1,734.15 per share (which represents a premium of 150% over the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on May 19, 2026), and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.
Proceeds
The Company’s net proceeds from the Offering were approximately $1.32 billion, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and the estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used the net proceeds from the Offering to pay the $121.5 million cost of the capped call transactions described above. The Company expects to use the remaining net proceeds from the Offering (i) to pay for a portion of the cash consideration of the acquisition of certain assets related to the timing business of Renesas Electronics Corporation as announced on February 4, 2026 and (ii) the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, operating expenses, capital expenditures and administrative expenses.

SiTime Corporation Announces Proposed Convertible Senior Notes Offering
SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 19, 2026 — SiTime Corporation (“SiTime”) (NASDAQ: SITM), the Precision Timing company, today announced its intent to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due in 2031 (the “Notes”) in an underwritten offering (the “Offering”). SiTime also intends to grant the underwriters of the Notes a right to purchase, within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the Notes are first issued, up to an additional $150 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, solely to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of SiTime, with any interest payable semiannually in arrears and will mature on June 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Upon conversion, SiTime will pay or deliver cash, shares of SiTime’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at its election. The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the Notes will be determined at the time of pricing of the Offering.
SiTime expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering (i) to pay for a portion of the cash consideration of the acquisition of certain assets related to the timing business of Renesas Electronics Corporation as announced on February 4, 2026 (the “Acquisition”), (ii) to pay the cost of the capped call transactions described below and (iii) the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option, SiTime expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes to enter into additional capped call transactions and the remainder for general corporate purposes as described above.
In connection with the pricing of the Notes, including the potential over-allotment Notes, SiTime expects to enter into capped call transactions with one or more of the underwriters or affiliates thereof and/or other financial institutions (the “Option Counterparties”). The capped call transactions will cover, subject to customary adjustments, the number of shares of common stock initially underlying the Notes. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments SiTime is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.
In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, SiTime expects the Option Counterparties or their respective affiliates will enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, including with certain investors in the Notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the common stock 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 common stock and/or purchasing or selling common stock or other securities of SiTime in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during the 40-trading day period beginning on the 41st scheduled trading day prior to the maturity date of the Notes, or, to the extent SiTime exercises the relevant election under the capped call transactions, following any repurchase, redemption or conversion of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of the common stock or the Notes which could affect a noteholder’s ability to convert the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of Notes, it could affect the number of shares, if any, and value of the consideration that a noteholder will receive upon conversion of its Notes.
The Notes are being offered pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-277373), including a base prospectus, that was previously filed by SiTime and became effective under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 26, 2024. A preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Offering will be filed with the SEC and will be available on the website of the SEC at www.sec.gov. When available, copies of the preliminary prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to the Offering may be obtained from: Wells Fargo Securities: 90 South 7th Street, 5th Floor, Minneapolis, MN 55402, by telephone at 800-645-3751 (option #5), by e-mail at WFScustomerservice@wellsfargo.com and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Attention: Prospectus Department, 200 West Street, New York, NY 10282, telephone: 1-866-471-2526, facsimile: 212-902-9316 or by emailing prospectus-ny@ny.email.gs.com. Before investing in the Offering, you should read in their entirety the preliminary prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and the other documents that SiTime has filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference in the preliminary prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, which provide more information about SiTime and the Offering.
Wells Fargo Securities, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Barclays, UBS Investment Bank and Morgan Stanley are acting as book-running managers for the Offering. HudsonWest LLC is acting as financial advisor to SiTime.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities 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 the registration or qualification thereof under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

The aggregate principal amount of the Offering was increased from the previously announced offering size of $1.1 billion. The sale of the Notes to the underwriters is expected to close on May 22, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. SiTime also granted the underwriters of the Notes a right to purchase, within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the Notes are first issued, up to an additional $150 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, solely to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Notes will be general unsecured obligations of SiTime and will not bear regular interest and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. The Notes will mature on June 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.
SiTime estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $1.17 billion (or approximately $1.32 billion if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full), after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions and estimated Offering expenses payable by SiTime.
SiTime expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering (i) to pay for a portion of the cash consideration of the acquisition of certain assets related to the timing business of Renesas Electronics Corporation as announced on February 4, 2026 (the “Acquisition”), (ii) to pay the $108.0 million cost of the capped call transactions described below and (iii) the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, operating expenses, capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option, SiTime expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the additional Notes to enter into additional capped call transactions and the remainder for general corporate purposes as described above.
Noteholders may convert all or any portion of their Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2031 only if one or more specific conditions are met. On or after March 15, 2031 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Notes will be convertible in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount at the option of the noteholders at any time regardless of these conditions. Upon conversion, SiTime will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of SiTime’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “common stock”), or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at its election.
The conversion rate will initially be 0.9611 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $1,040.47 per share of common stock, which represents a conversion premium of approximately 50.0% to the last reported sale price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on May 19, 2026). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment in some events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid special interest. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the Notes or if SiTime delivers a notice of redemption, SiTime will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the Notes for a noteholder who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called (or deemed called, in the case of an optional redemption) for redemption during the related redemption period, as the case may be.
SiTime may not redeem the Notes prior to June 20, 2029, except in the event of a cleanup redemption as described below. SiTime may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation described below), at its option, on a redemption date on or after June 20, 2029 if the last reported sale price of the common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which SiTime provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, SiTime may redeem for cash all but not part of the Notes, at its option, if the principal amount of the Notes outstanding at such time is less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes initially issued under the indenture at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If SiTime redeems fewer than all of the outstanding Notes in an optional redemption, at least $150 million aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of, and after giving effect to, delivery of the relevant notice of redemption.
If SiTime undergoes a “fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture that will govern the Notes), then, subject to certain conditions and limited exceptions, noteholders may require SiTime to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
Concurrently with the pricing of the Notes, SiTime entered into capped call transactions with the underwriters or their affiliates and certain other financial institutions (the “Option Counterparties”). The capped call transactions cover, subject to customary adjustments, the number of shares of common stock initially underlying the Notes. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments SiTime is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.
The cap price of the capped call transactions relating to the Notes will initially be $1,734.15, which represents a premium of 150% over the last reported sale price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on May 19, 2026, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.
In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, SiTime expects the Option Counterparties or their respective affiliates will enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes, including with certain investors in the Notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the common stock 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 common stock and/or purchasing or selling common stock or other securities of SiTime in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during the 40-trading day period beginning on the 41st scheduled trading day prior to the maturity date of the Notes, or, to the extent SiTime exercises the relevant election under the capped call transactions, following any repurchase, redemption or conversion of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of the common stock or the Notes which could affect a noteholder’s ability to convert the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of Notes, it could affect the number of shares, if any, and value of the consideration that a noteholder will receive upon conversion of its Notes.
