Sensata Technologies Holding plc and Certain Subsidiaries Announce Early Tender Results and Amendment of Cash Tender Offers
SWINDON, United Kingdom, June 1, 2026 — Sensata Technologies Holding plc (NYSE: ST) (“Sensata”) and its indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries Sensata Technologies B.V. (“STBV”) and Sensata Technologies, Inc. (“STI”) (each subsidiary, an “Offeror” and collectively, the “Offerors”) announced today the early tender results of the Offerors’ previously announced tender offers (each, individually with respect to the relevant series of senior notes, a “Tender Offer” with respect to such series, and collectively, the “Tender Offers”) to purchase up to $350,000,000 in total cash consideration payable, excluding the applicable accrued and unpaid interest (the “Maximum Tender Offer Amount”), for certain senior notes issued by the respective Offerors (collectively, the “Notes”).
Sensata and the Offerors also announced that the Offerors have amended the Tender Offers to increase the Maximum Tender Offer Amount from $350,000,000 to $400,000,000 (the “Tender Offer Increase”; the Maximum Tender Offer Amount, as so increased, the “Increased Maximum Tender Offer Amount”).
The terms and conditions of the Tender Offers are set forth in the Offerors’ Offer to Purchase dated May 15, 2026 (as amended by the Tender Offer Increase, the “Offer to Purchase”). Other than the Tender Offer Increase, all of the terms of the previously announced Tender Offers remain unchanged. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this press release have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.
The aggregate principal amount of the 4.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (Rule 144A CUSIP 81725W AK9 / Reg S CUSIP N78840 AM2) issued by STBV (the “STBV 2029 Notes”) that was validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 29, 2026 (the “Early Tender Deadline”) was $553,580,000. Accordingly, tenders of STBV 2029 Notes, considered alone, exceeded the Increased Maximum Tender Offer Amount for the Tender Offers. STBV expects to accept for purchase STBV 2029 Notes having an aggregate purchase price approximately equal to the Increased Maximum Tender Offer Amount of $400,000,000, which STBV 2029 Notes, at the purchase price of $985 per $1,000 of principal amount, have an aggregate principal amount of approximately $406,091,000.
The amount of STBV 2029 Notes expected to be accepted for purchase was determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Offer to Purchase. Under the terms of the Offer to Purchase, the STBV 2029 Notes had Acceptance Level Priority 1 (as defined in the Offer to Purchase).
13415267.10
STBV expects to elect to exercise its right to make payment on June 2, 2026 (the “Early Settlement Date”) for the STBV 2029 Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to or at the Early Tender Deadline and that are accepted for purchase.
Because the total cash consideration payable, excluding the applicable accrued and unpaid interest, for the STBV 2029 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline exceeds the Increased Maximum Tender Offer Amount, the applicable Offerors do not expect to accept for purchase all Notes that have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to or at the applicable Early Tender Deadline. Rather, in accordance with the Acceptance Priority Levels described in the Offer to Purchase, (a) STBV expects that the purchase of the STBV 2029 Notes will be prorated in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tender Offer at a rate of approximately 69.1448%, after excluding notes not subject to proration in order to satisfy minimum denomination requirements, (b) STI does not expect to accept for purchase any of the 4.375% Senior Notes due 2030 issued by it, and (c) STBV does not expect to accept for purchase any of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2030 issued by it. As described in the Offer to Purchase, Notes tendered and not accepted for purchase will be promptly credited to the tendering holder’s account.
The consideration to be paid for the STBV 2029 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to or at the applicable Early Tender Deadline per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes accepted for purchase pursuant to the applicable Tender Offer is the “Total Consideration” for the STBV 2029 Notes, as described in the Offer to Purchase. The Total Consideration includes an early tender premium of $50 per $1,000 principal amount of STBV 2029 Notes accepted for purchase. All holders of STBV 2029 Notes accepted for purchase will also receive, with respect to their STBV 2029 Notes, the applicable accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date with respect to such STBV 2029 Notes to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date, if and when such STBV 2029 Notes are accepted for payment.
The Tender Offers commenced on May 15, 2026 and are scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 15, 2026, unless extended by the applicable Offeror or earlier terminated with respect to any Tender Offer. However, because the aggregate principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Deadline exceeds the Increased Maximum Tender Offer Amount, no tenders of Notes submitted after the Early Tender Deadline are expected to be accepted for purchase in the Tender Offers.
The withdrawal deadline for the Tender Offers was 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 29, 2026 and has not been extended. Accordingly, previously tendered Notes may not be withdrawn, subject to applicable law.
13415267.10
The applicable Offeror’s obligation to accept for payment and to pay for any of the Notes validly tendered in the applicable Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase. The applicable Offeror(s) reserve the right, subject to applicable law, to: (i) waive any and all conditions to the applicable Tender Offer; (ii) extend or terminate the applicable Tender Offer; (iii) increase or decrease the Maximum Tender Offer Amount (as increased by the Tender Offer Increase) without extending or reinstating withdrawal rights; or (iv) otherwise amend the applicable Tender Offer in any respect.
The Offerors have retained Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Barclays Capital Inc. to act as Dealer Managers (the “Dealer Managers”) in connection with the Tender Offers. Questions and requests for assistance regarding the terms of the Tender Offers should be directed to Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC at (800) 828-3182 or by email at gs-lm-nyc@ny.email.gs.com, or to Barclays Capital Inc. at (800) 438-3242 or by email at us.lm@barclays.com. Copies of the Offer to Purchase and any amendments or supplements to the foregoing may be obtained from D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the Tender Offers (the “Tender and Information Agent”), by calling (646) 970-2125 (for banks and brokers only) or (866) 796-3441 (for all others), or via email at Sensata@dfking.com.
None of the Offerors, Sensata, the Dealer Managers, the Tender and Information Agent, the trustees under the indentures governing the Notes, or the guarantors party to the indentures governing the Notes, nor any of their respective affiliates, is making any recommendation as to whether holders should tender or refrain from tendering all or any portion of their Notes in response to the Tender Offers, and no one has been authorized by any of them to make such a recommendation. Holders must make their own decision as to whether to tender their Notes and, if so, the principal amount of Notes to tender. Holders should consult their tax, accounting, financial and legal advisers regarding the tax, accounting, financial and legal consequences of participating or declining to participate in the Tender Offers.
The Tender Offers are only being made pursuant to the Offer to Purchase. This press release is neither an offer to purchase or sell nor a solicitation of an offer to purchase or sell any Notes in the Tender Offers or any other securities of the Offerors. The Tender Offers are not being made to holders of Notes in any jurisdiction or in any circumstances in which the making or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction. In any jurisdiction in which the Tender Offers are required to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Tender Offers will be deemed to be made on behalf of the Offerors by the Dealer Managers, or one or more registered brokers or dealers that are licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction.
