Early Convertible Note Repayment Eliminates Share Dilution Risk
According to a company announcement, Los Gatos, California-based Tenon Medical fully paid off its original issue discount senior convertible promissory notes ahead of their scheduled September 11, maturity date. The notes, which carried an aggregate principal balance of approximately $5.16 million, were originally issued on March 11.
By retiring the debt in cash ahead of schedule, Tenon eliminated the risk that noteholders could convert the debt into common stock at a discount to prevailing market prices.
