WhiteFiber Upsizes Convertible Notes to $270M, Adds $198M Note Exchange
WYFI has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $10.51 on elevated volume (2.0× avg).
Summary
WhiteFiber priced its convertible senior notes offering at $270 million, up from the $250 million announced yesterday. The notes carry a 5.00% coupon, mature in 2032, and convert at $33.84 per share — a 25% premium to the last sale. Concurrently, the company is exchanging $198.15 million of its existing 4.500% notes due 2031 for about $118.5 million in cash and 6.3 million shares. Net proceeds of roughly $259.8 million will fund the exchange and data center expansion. The exchange could trigger substantial selling by holders unwinding hedges, pressuring the stock near term. This follows the company's recent $60 million North Carolina site acquisitions and strong Q2 results.
