Key Terms

tender offer financial

A tender offer is a proposal made by a person or company to buy shares from existing shareholders at a set price, usually higher than the current market value, within a specific time frame. It matters to investors because it can lead to a change in ownership or control of a company, and shareholders must decide whether to sell their shares at the offered price.

A modified "Dutch auction" tender offer is a way for a company to buy back its own shares by asking shareholders to bid the minimum price at which they are willing to sell and how many shares they will tender, then choosing the lowest price that lets the company repurchase the desired total. Think of it like an auction where the seller sets a price range and the host accepts the lowest acceptable bids until capacity is filled; it matters to investors because it can produce a fair market price for selling shares and affects share supply, per-share value, and takeover dynamics.

schedule to regulatory

A phrase indicating that a company plans or intends to hold an event, publish information, or take an action at a specified future time, but that the timing is not guaranteed and may change. For investors it signals an expected milestone—like an earnings call, product launch, or filing—so think of it as a calendar note rather than a firm promise; timing shifts can affect trading, expectations, and planning.

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Expensify, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXFY) (the “Company”), the easiest way to manage expenses, corporate cards, and travel, today announced that it has commenced a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase for cash up to $25,000,000 of its outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), at a price per share not less than $0.98 and not greater than $1.20, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest. The Tender Offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on June 10, 2026, unless extended or terminated.

If the Tender Offer is fully subscribed, the Company will purchase between 25,510,204 and 20,833,333 shares, or between approximately 30% and 25%, respectively, of the Company’s outstanding Class A Common Stock as of May 4, 2026. Any shares tendered may be withdrawn prior to expiration of the Tender Offer. Stockholders that do not wish to participate in the Tender Offer do not need to take any action. None of the Company’s directors or executive officers will tender any of their shares in the Tender Offer.

A modified “Dutch auction” tender offer allows stockholders to indicate how many shares of Class A Common Stock and at what price within the range described above they wish to tender their shares. Based on the number of shares tendered and the prices specified by the tendering stockholders, the Company will determine the lowest per-share price that will enable it to acquire up to $25,000,000 of shares of Class A Common Stock. All shares accepted in the Tender Offer will be purchased at the same price even if tendered at a lower price.

To tender shares of Class A Common Stock, stockholders must follow the instructions described in the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal that the Company is filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These documents contain important information about the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer.

The Tender Offer will not be contingent upon any minimum number of shares being tendered or any financing conditions. The Tender Offer will, however, be subject to other conditions, which will be disclosed in the Offer to Purchase. The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) believes that a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer is an efficient mechanism that will provide stockholders with the opportunity to tender all or a portion of their shares, subject to the proration provisions described in the Offer to Purchase.

The Board has authorized the Tender Offer. However, none of the Company, the Board, the dealer manager, the information agent, the depositary or any of their respective affiliates are making any recommendation to stockholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares in the Tender Offer or as to the price at which stockholders may choose to tender their shares. No person is authorized to make any such recommendation. Stockholders must decide for themselves how many shares they will tender, if any, and the price within the stated range at which they will offer any such shares for purchase. In doing so, stockholders should carefully read the information in, or incorporated by reference in, the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal (as each may be amended or supplemented), including the purposes and effects of the Tender Offer. Stockholders are urged to discuss their decisions with their tax advisors, financial advisors and brokers.

Citizens JMP Securities, LLC, is acting as dealer manager for the Tender Offer. The information agent for the Tender Offer is Georgeson LLC, and the depositary is Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and all related documents will be mailed to registered holders beginning today.
