    Xeris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: XERS), a specialty pharmaceutical company leveraging its novel technology platforms to develop and commercialize ready-to-use injectable and infusible drug formulations, today announced the pricing of concurrent underwritten public offerings of 7,400,000 shares of its common stock (the “Shares”) at a public offering price of $2.72 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $20.1 million, and $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). In addition, Xeris has granted the underwriters of the offering of the Shares (the “Shares Offering”) a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,110,000 Shares and the underwriters of the offering of the Notes (the “Notes Offering”) a 30-day option to purchase up to $11.25 million aggregate principal amount of additional Notes. The sale of the Shares to the underwriters in the Shares Offering is expected to settle on June 30, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, and is expected to result in approximately $18.8 million in net proceeds to Xeris, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by Xeris (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional Shares). The sale of the Notes to the underwriters in the Notes Offering is expected to settle on June 30, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, and is expected to result in approximately $70.5 million in net proceeds to Xeris, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by Xeris (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional Notes). Neither offering is contingent on the completion of the other offering.

    The Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Xeris and will bear interest at a rate of 5.00% per year. Interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2021. The Notes will mature on July 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The initial conversion rate for the Notes is 326.7974 shares of Xeris’ common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $3.06 per share, which represents a premium of approximately 12.5% over the public offering price of Xeris’ common stock in the concurrent Shares Offering of $2.72 per share). The Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders of Notes at any time before the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. Conversions of the Notes will be settled in shares of Xeris’ common stock together with cash in lieu of any fractional share, if applicable.
