Private Offering

indie Semiconductor (NASDAQ: INDI) has priced its private offering of $190 million 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029, upsized from the initially announced $175 million. The company granted initial purchasers a 13-day option to purchase an additional $28.5 million in notes.

The notes will be convertible into cash, shares, or a combination thereof at an initial conversion rate of 194.6188 shares per $1,000 principal amount, equivalent to $5.14 per share, representing a 27.5% premium to the December 3 closing price. The company expects net proceeds of approximately $183.3 million, with $20.3 million allocated for capped call transactions to reduce potential dilution. The remaining proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The successful pricing of this convertible offering amid challenging market conditions signals institutional confidence in indie's growth trajectory in the automotive solutions space. The terms, including the 100% cap premium and 27.5% conversion premium, are competitive for the semiconductor sector. The option for additional $28.5 million notes provides extra flexibility for expansion.

The structured hedging through capped calls helps manage market impact and protects against excessive dilution, particularly important given indie's current market cap of $946 million. The 3.50% coupon rate is attractive in the current high-rate environment, suggesting strong market positioning and growth potential in the automotive semiconductor space.
