On October 23, Workday recorded an Intraday Rise of 3.01% in Regular Trading, trading at $209.09 per share, with turnover of $273 million.
The clearest recent catalyst is Workday’s pricing of a $2.5 billion public offering of senior notes announced on October 22, with proceeds planned in part to redeem, repay, repurchase or retire $1 billion of 3.5% notes due April 1, and the remainder for general corporate purposes.
The financing was split into $750 million of 5.7% notes due 2029, $500 million of 6.0% notes due 2031, $750 million of 6.3% notes due 2033, and $500 million of 6.5% notes due 2036, with closing expected on October 24 subject to customary conditions. The transaction points to proactive liability management and balance-sheet flexibility. Earlier in October, analyst views on Workday were mixed, with Stifel raising its target price while KeyBanc downgraded the stock to neutral.
