Wolfspeed (NYSE: WOLF) prices $379M converts and $96.9M equity to refinance debt

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Wolfspeed, Inc. entered into private financing deals combining new equity and convertible debt. The company agreed to sell 3,250,030 common shares and pre-funded warrants for up to 2,000,000 additional shares, raising approximately $96.9 million. It also subscribed $379.0 million of 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031, with an initial conversion price of about $20.14 per share. Total anticipated gross proceeds of roughly $475.9 million are expected to be used to redeem about $475.9 million of existing Senior Secured Notes due 2030, aiming to reduce higher-cost debt and lower interest expense while adding a sizable, secured convertible component to the capital structure.

Insights

Capital structure and credit analyst

Wolfspeed refinances high-cost debt with sizable secured converts and equity.

Wolfspeed is raising about $475.9 million via private placements of 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 and new equity, including pre-funded warrants. The notes are secured by substantially all assets and carry a relatively low cash coupon.

Management plans to use the proceeds to redeem approximately $475.9 million of existing Senior Secured Notes due 2030, targeting reduced interest expense and total debt. However, the notes are convertible at an initial price near $20.14 per share, implying potential issuance of up to 22,586,391 shares, plus the new stock and warrant shares.

This transaction shifts risk from pure leverage toward possible future equity dilution and adds a first-and-a-half lien layer in the capital stack. Actual impact on shareholders will depend on future stock performance, conversion behavior and the company’s ability to execute its strategy in targeted end markets such as AI data centers and industrial and energy applications.

Equity Securities Offering

Equity Purchase Agreement

On March 19, 2026, Wolfspeed, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Equity Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Equity Securities Investors”). The Purchase Agreement provides for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of: (i) 3,250,030 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00125 per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants,” and, together with the Shares, the “Equity Securities”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock in a private placement (the “Equity Securities Placement”). The price per Share is $18.458, and the price per Pre-Funded Warrant is $18.448. The closing of the Equity Securities Placement is expected to occur on March 26, 2026 (the “Equity Securities Closing”), subject to customary closing conditions.

The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per underlying share of Common Stock, exercisable at any time until each is fully exercised, and will not expire until each is fully exercised, subject to the ownership limitations described below. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Pre-Funded Warrant is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock, as well as upon certain distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property, to the Company’s stockholders. The Pre-Funded Warrants include a beneficial ownership blocker that provides that the holder may not exercise (nor may the Company allow the exercise of) such Pre-Funded Warrant if, upon giving effect to such exercise, such exercise would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder (together with affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) to exceed 9.99% of the total number of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as determined in accordance with the terms of each Pre-Funded Warrant; provided that the Pre-Funded Warrant holder may decrease (and later increase) such percentage to a percentage not in excess of 9.99% effective on or after the 61st day after notice of such increase or decrease is delivered to the Company.

The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Equity Securities Placement are expected to be approximately $96.9 million, excluding any proceeds the Company may receive upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

The Equity Purchase Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The foregoing description of the Equity Securities Placement, the Equity Securities issued in connection therewith and the Equity Purchase Agreement is a summary and does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the forms of the Pre-Funded Warrant and the Equity Purchase Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Equity Securities Placement, the Company agreed to enter into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Equity Securities Investors at the Equity Securities Closing in the form attached to the Equity Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, among other things, the Company will file a resale registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) no later than 75 days after the Equity Securities Closing to register the resale of the “Registrable Securities” (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) held by them, which generally includes the Shares and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC within certain timeframes set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition, the Equity Securities Investors have customary piggyback registration rights, subject to the limitations set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Company will generally pay all registration expenses in connection with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, regardless of whether a registration statement is filed or becomes effective. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for customary indemnification and contribution provisions. The Registration Rights Agreement will terminate, with respect to each Equity Securities Investor, at such time as such Equity Securities Investor no longer owns any Registrable Securities, and in full and be of no further effect, at such time as there are no Registrable Securities held by any Equity Securities Investor.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is a summary and does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

DURHAM, N.C.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—March 19, 2026—Wolfspeed, Inc. (NYSE: WOLF) (“Wolfspeed”) today announced that on March 19, 2026, it entered into separate, privately negotiated subscription agreements with investors pursuant to which Wolfspeed will place (i) $379,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.5% Convertible 1.5 Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) and (ii) 3,250,030 shares of common stock, at a purchase price of $18.458 per share (the “Shares”) and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock at a price of $18.448 per pre-funded warrant. The issuance and sale of the Notes, Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Private Placements”) is expected to settle on March 26, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. Funds managed by new and existing investors participated in the Private Placements.

Wolfspeed anticipates that the gross proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Notes will be $379.0 million and anticipates that the gross proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants will be approximately $96.9 million, resulting in anticipated aggregate gross proceeds from the Private Placements of approximately $475.9 million, before deducting placement agent and financial advisor fees and other expenses.

Consistent with the Company’s previously communicated strategy to enhance its capital structure, Wolfspeed intends to use the gross proceeds from the Private Placements to redeem approximately $475.9 million of the outstanding Senior Notes in order to reduce higher-cost debt instruments, lower annual interest expense, and reduce total debt. These efforts intend to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet, supporting initiatives to diversify key end markets and capture opportunities in emerging high-voltage applications including AI data centers, industrial and energy, and aerospace and defense markets.

The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), to be dated March 26, 2026, between Wolfspeed, Wolfspeed Texas LLC (the “Guarantor”) and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent”.

The Notes will bear cash interest at a rate of 3.5% per year. Interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2026. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior basis by the Guarantor, and the Notes and the related guarantee by the Guarantor will be senior, secured obligations of Wolfspeed and the Guarantor, secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the Guarantor (the “Collateral”). The Notes and related guarantees (i) will rank equally in right of payment, without giving effect to collateral arrangements, with any existing and future senior indebtedness of the Issuer and the Guarantor, (ii) will be senior in right of payment to any existing and future subordinated obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantor, (iii) will be effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of the Issuer and the Guarantor that is secured by a lien on the Collateral that is senior or prior to the lien on the Collateral securing the Notes (including obligations under Wolfspeed’s existing Senior Secured Notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes”)), (iv) will be effectively senior to all indebtedness of the Issuer and the Guarantor that is not secured by a lien on the Collateral, or that is secured by a lien ranking junior to the lien on the Collateral securing the Notes (including Wolfspeed’s existing 2.5% Convertible Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 and 7.00%/12.00% Second Lien Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2031) and (v) will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities of the non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Noteholders will have the right to convert their Notes at any time at their election (subject to certain limitations) until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The initial conversion rate for the Notes will be 49.6623 shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $20.14 per share of Wolfspeed’s common stock), and will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Conversions of the Notes will be settled in cash, shares of the common stock or a combination thereof, at Wolfspeed’s election. The initial conversion price represents a conversion premium of approximately 20.0% over the last reported sale price of $16.78 per share of Wolfspeed’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on March 18, 2026.

If a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Indenture) occurs, then, subject to limited exceptions, noteholders may require Wolfspeed to repurchase their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.

The Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, for cash at Wolfspeed’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2028, and on or before the 35th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Wolfspeed’s common stock exceeds 175% of the conversion price for a certain period of time if the redemption date occurs on or before March 19, 2029 and 130% of the conversion price for a certain period of time if the redemption occurs on or after March 20, 2029, in each case subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Subject to certain restrictions, each Pre-Funded Warrant will be exercisable at the option of the holder of such Pre-Funded Warrant for the purchase of one share of Wolfspeed’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and William Blair & Company L.L.C. acted as placement agents and financial advisors to Wolfspeed in connection with the offering of the securities. J. Wood Capital Advisors LLC also acted as a financial advisor to Wolfspeed.

The securities (and the shares of Wolfspeed’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants) to be sold in the Private Placements have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state or other applicable jurisdiction’s securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state or other jurisdictions’ securities laws.
