NewtekOne, Inc. Announces Extension of Exchange Offer for its Notes due 2026
BOCA RATON, Fla., Jan. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewtekOne, Inc. (“NewtekOne”) today announced that the expiration date with respect to its previously announced offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) its outstanding 5.50% Notes due 2026 (the “Old Notes”) for an equal principal amount of newly issued 8.50% Fixed Rate Senior Notes due 2031 (the “New Notes”) has been extended to January 23, 2026 in order to provide holders of Old Notes additional time to participate in the Exchange Offer and exchange their Old Notes for New Notes prior to the scheduled maturity of the Old Notes on February 1, 2026.
The Exchange Offer will now expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time on January 23, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by NewtekOne (such date and time, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the “Expiration Date”). In order to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer, an Old Note must be validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted by NewtekOne. The settlement date for the Exchange Offer will occur promptly following the Expiration Date, and is expected to be January 28, 2026 (the “Settlement Date”).
Because the Settlement Date for the Exchange Offer will now fall after the January 15, 2026 record date for the final interest payment on the Old Notes prior to the scheduled maturity of the Old Notes on February 1, 2026, any holder of Old Notes (whether or not exchanged in the Exchange Offer) as of such record date will receive this final interest payment; note, the first interest payment on the New Notes will be net of the amount of interest paid on the Old Notes from the Settlement Date to but excluding the February 1, 2026 interest payment date of the New Notes.
All other terms of the Exchange Offer, other than the Expiration Date, which has been extended to give holders additional time to participate, including the conditions to its consummation, remain unchanged.
