PureCycle Technologies has finalized its $250 million convertible senior notes offering, a critical capital raise given its recent cash burn and net losses. The notes carry a 4.75% interest rate and an initial conversion price of $11.08 per share, which is a premium to the current stock price of $8.88. A significant portion of the proceeds will be used to repurchase higher-interest Green Convertible Notes, improving the company's debt structure and extending its financial runway. This offering is part of a larger concurrent capital raise that includes a common stock offering, which collectively is highly dilutive to existing shareholders.
