CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 13, 2025--

Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC) (the “Company” or “Semtech”) today announced the closing of its offering of $350 million in aggregate principal amount of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”) and the full exercise of the option granted to initial purchasers of the Notes to purchase an additional $52.5 million aggregate principal amount of Notes (the “Greenshoe Option”) in a private placement (the “Offering”). Total net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $391.2 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

Semtech expects to use (i) approximately $220.6 million of the net proceeds from the Offering, together with the issuance of approximately 3.0 million shares of Semtech’s common stock, as the consideration for the exchange of approximately $219.0 million aggregate principal amount of its existing 1.625% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), (ii) approximately $63.1 million of the net proceeds from the Offering, together with the issuance of approximately 2.2 million shares of Semtech’s common stock, as the consideration for the exchange of $61.95 million aggregate principal amount of its existing 4.00% convertible senior notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes” and, together with the 2027 Notes, the “Existing Notes”), which constitutes the remaining outstanding amount of the 2028 Notes and (iii) approximately $107.6 million of the net proceeds from the Offering and approximately $3.5 million of cash on hand to repay in full the term loan outstanding under Semtech’s senior credit facilities.

Following the closing of the Offering and the closing of the exchanges of the Existing Notes, which are expected to occur on October 14, 2025, Semtech’s outstanding debt will consist of approximately $100.5 million in aggregate principal of the 2027 Notes and approximately $402.5 million in aggregate principal of the 2030 Notes.

A summary of terms of the 2030 Notes and the related capped call transaction is as follows:
