Audio By Carbonatix

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar 4, 2026--

Yext, Inc. (NYSE: YEXT), the leading brand visibility platform, today announced that it is amending its previously announced “modified Dutch Auction” tender offer for shares of its common stock to decrease the maximum aggregate purchase price of shares to be repurchased in the tender offer from $180,000,000 to $140,000,000. The decision follows a re-evaluation by Yext of the value of borrowing additional funds under Yext’s existing credit facilities due to the increased cost of such capital as a result of recent macro-economic developments, including geopolitical tensions, significant stress in the private capital markets, and increased inflationary concerns.

In connection with the amendment, Yext has extended the expiration time of the tender offer from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 12, 2026 to 5:00 p.m., New York City Time on March 18, 2026 (unless further extended or earlier terminated). The closing price of Yext’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on March 3, 2026, the last full trading day before the amendment of the tender offer, was $5.67 per share.

Based on information provided by Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, LLC, the depositary for the tender offer, to date, 3,000 shares have been tendered for purchase in the tender offer. Stockholders who have validly tendered and not withdrawn their shares do not need to re-tender their shares or take any other action in response to the amendment and extension of the tender offer.

The information agent for the tender offer is D.F. King & Co., Inc. For all questions relating to the tender offer, please call the information agent toll-free at (800) 967-4614; banks and brokers may call the dealer manager, BofA Securities, Inc. at (646) 855-6770.

None of Yext, the members of its board of directors, the dealer manager, the information agent or the depositary, or any of their respective affiliates, makes any recommendation as to whether any stockholder should participate or refrain from participating in the tender offer or as to the purchase price or purchase prices at which stockholders may choose to tender their shares in the tender offer. Stockholders must make their own decision as to whether to tender their shares and, if so, how many shares to tender and the price or prices at which their shares should be tendered. In doing so, stockholders should consult their own financial advisors, tax advisors and/or brokers and read carefully and evaluate all of the information in the offer to purchase, the related letter of transmittal and other related materials (as they may be amended or supplemented), including the reasons for the tender offer.
