$500 Million Senior Subordinated Notes Offering Pricing
TransDigm Group priced its offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of additional 6.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2034 (the "New Notes") of TransDigm Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary. The New Notes will be issued at a price of 100.375% of their principal amount plus accrued interest from February 13, 2026.

As previously announced, TransDigm Inc. issued $1,200 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2034 on February 13, 2026 (the "Initial Notes"). The New Notes will be an additional issuance of the Initial Notes, and the New Notes will be of the same class and series as, and otherwise identical to, the Initial Notes, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price.
The New Notes and related guarantees are being offered pursuant to a confidential offering memorandum only 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 of 1933 (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.
