Oak‑Eagle AcquireCo, a subsidiary of the investor consortium backing Electronic Arts’ $55 billion take‑private deal, announced on February 10, 2026 that it would make a tender offer to purchase all outstanding 1.850% senior notes due 2031 and 2.950% senior notes due 2051. The offer is part of the broader merger plan that will make EA a wholly‑owned subsidiary of Oak‑Eagle. The tender offer is conditioned on the completion of the merger and is intended to simplify EA’s debt profile ahead of the transaction’s closing. The offer includes a cash consideration that reflects the notes’ current market value, plus accrued interest, and is set to be finalized by March 16, 2026. This move is a key step in the consortium’s strategy to streamline EA’s balance sheet and prepare the company for private‑market operations, potentially reducing debt servicing costs and freeing capital for future investments.
