By Abigail W. Adams

Portland, Me., Feb. 28 – Five9 Inc. priced an upsized $650 million of five-year convertible notes after the market close on Tuesday at par with a coupon of 1% and an initial conversion premium of 30%, according to a company news release.

Pricing came at the rich end of talk for a coupon of 1% to 1.5% and at the midpoint of talk for an initial conversion premium of 27.5% to 32.5%, according to a market source.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (lead left), Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC were bookrunners for the Rule 144A offering, which carries an upsized greenshoe of $97.5 million.

The initial size of the offering was $600 million with a greenshoe of $90 million.

The notes are non-callable until March 22, 2027 and then subject to a 130% hurdle.

They are putable upon a fundamental change.

The notes will be settled in cash, shares or a combination of both at the company’s option.

In connection with the offering, the company entered into capped call transactions with a cap price of $122.18, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sales price of stock.

The company will repurchase $313.1 million of its outstanding 0.5% convertible notes due 2025 for $304.9 million in cash.

Net proceeds are expected to be $633.5 million or will be $728.8 million if the greenshoe is exercised in full.

Approximately $81.3 million of net proceeds will be used to cover the cost of the call spread, $304.9 million will be used to fund the repurchase of the 0.5% convertible notes due 2025 with any remaining amounts to be used for general corporate purposes.
