T1 Energy Announces Pricing of Upsized Public Offering of Convertible Senior Notes Due 2031

AUSTIN, Texas and NEW YORK, April 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- T1 Energy Inc. (NYSE: TE) ( “T1,” “T1 Energy,” or the “Company”) today announced the pricing of its previously announced underwritten public offering of $160.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.00% convertible senior notes due 2031 (the “Convertible Notes” and such offering, the “Offering”). The Offering was upsized from the previously announced $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $151.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and the Company’s estimated offering expenses. In addition, the Company has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $24.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes, solely to cover over-allotments. The Offering is expected to close on April 17, 2026, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering for (i) construction and development of infrastructure and purchase of production line equipment relating to Phase 1 of its G2_Austin solar cell fab with 2.1 GW of capacity and (ii) general corporate purposes. The Company is targeting a larger financing solution, that includes a significant debt component, to fund the remaining balance of capital expenditures for Phase 1 of G2_Austin.

The Convertible Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2026. The Convertible Notes will mature on April 15, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Before January 15, 2031, holders may convert their Convertible Notes at their option only in certain circumstances. At any time from, and including, January 15, 2031 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders. The Company will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 146.9724 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $6.80 per share of common stock and represents a conversion premium of approximately 40% above the last reported sale price of $4.86 per share of the Company’s common stock on The New York Stock Exchange on April 14, 2026. If a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture that will govern the Convertible Notes) occurs, or if the Company calls a holder’s Convertible Notes for redemption, then the Company will in certain circumstances increase the conversion rate for a specified period of time for holders who convert their Convertible Notes in connection with that make-whole fundamental change, or who convert their Convertible Notes that are called for such redemption.

The Convertible Notes will not be redeemable prior to April 20, 2029. The Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after April 20, 2029 and prior to the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the common stock equals or exceeds 130% of the conversion price for the Convertible Notes on (1) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (2) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice.

If a “fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture that will govern the Convertible Notes) occurs, then, subject to certain exceptions, holders may require the Company to repurchase their Convertible Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

Santander and J.P. Morgan are acting as lead bookrunning managers, BTIG, HSBC and Societe Generale are acting as joint bookrunning managers, and Roth Capital Partners and Johnson Rice & Company are acting as co-managers for the Offering. The Company has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as well as a preliminary prospectus supplement with respect to the Offering to which this communication relates.
