Company Announcements

PITTSBURGH & CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 21, 2026-- The Kraft Heinz Company (“Kraft Heinz”) (Nasdaq: KHC) announced today the pricing terms and the accepted tender amounts in respect of the previously announced offer by Kraft Heinz Foods Company, its 100% owned subsidiary (the “Issuer”), to purchase for cash (the “Tender Offer”) up to the maximum combined aggregate purchase price of $1,100,000,000, excluding accrued and unpaid interest (the “Maximum Tender Amount”), of its outstanding 4.375% Senior Notes due June 2046 (the “2046 Notes”) and its 4.875% Senior Notes due October 2049 (the “2049 Notes” and, together with the 2046 Notes, the “Notes” and each, a “Series” of Notes), from each registered holder of the Notes (the “Holders”), pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated May 7, 2026 (the “Offer to Purchase”). Capitalized terms used in this release but not otherwise defined have the meaning given in the Offer to Purchase.

The applicable total consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase (the “Total Consideration”) was determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the Fixed Spread (as defined below) for the applicable Series specified below over the applicable Reference Yield (as defined below) based on the bid-side price of the applicable Reference Treasury Security specified below, as calculated by the Dealer Managers (as defined below), today at 10:00 a.m.New York City time.

Because the maximum combined aggregate purchase price, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, of the 2046 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 20, 2026 (the “Early Tender Time”), exceeded the Maximum Tender Amount, the Issuer accepts for purchase $1,379,414,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 2046 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time (representing approximately 49.51% of the aggregate principal amount of 2046 Notes outstanding), using a proration factor of approximately 78.77% in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, so that the maximum principal amount of the 2046 Notes accepted for purchase does not result in the maximum combined aggregate purchase price (excluding accrued and unpaid interest) exceeding the Maximum Tender Amount. The Issuer will not accept for purchase any of the 2049 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time, or any Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time. Notes tendered and not accepted for purchase will be promptly returned or credited to the applicable Holder’s account.

The Issuer will pay Holders who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw their 2046 Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Time, and whose 2046 Notes have been accepted for purchase, the applicable Total Consideration, inclusive of the applicable Early Tender Premium, as set forth in the table above.

Settlement for the 2046 Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and that are accepted for purchase will occur on May 26, 2026 (the “Early Settlement Date”), the third business day after the Early Tender Time.

The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m.New York City time, on June 5, 2026, unless extended with respect to a Series of Notes (such time and date, as they may be extended, the “Expiration Time”) or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase.

Kraft Heinz has engaged BofA Securities, Inc. (“BofA Securities”), Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“Citigroup”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“Deutsche Bank Securities”) and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) to act as dealer managers (collectively, the “Dealer Managers”) in connection with the Tender Offer and has appointed Global Bondholder Services Corporation to serve as the Tender Agent and Information Agent for the Tender Offer. Copies of the Offer to Purchase are available at https://www.gbsc-usa.com/kraftheinzcompany/ or by contacting Global Bondholder Services Corporation via telephone at (855) 654-2015 (toll free) or (212) 430-3774 (for banks and brokers).
