Fair Isaac Corporation (NYSE:FICO) announced today that it intends to offer, subject to market and certain other conditions, $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2034 (the "Notes") in a private offering that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of FICO.

FICO intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes to repay certain indebtedness outstanding under its existing unsecured revolving credit facility, to fund the redemption in full of $400 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.25% Senior Notes due 2026 that were issued on May 8, 2018 (the "2018 Senior Notes"), to pay related fees and expenses, and for general corporate purposes which may include repurchases of common stock.

On March 11, 2026, FICO plans to provide a conditional notice of its intent to redeem the 2018 Senior Notes on March 26, 2026 subject to the successful issuance of the Notes on terms and in an aggregate principal amount satisfactory to FICO. This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the 2018 Senior Notes.

The Notes will be offered and sold to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, nor shall there be any sales of the Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. This press release is being issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, Rule 135(c) under the Securities Act.
