Executive Summary
YPF announced the expiration and final results of its cash tender offer to repurchase up to $1 billion aggregate principal amount of its 6.950% Senior Notes due 2027 and 2.500%/9.000% Step Up Amortizing Notes due 2029. The company accepted $318.5 million of the 2027 notes and $247.6 million (pre-amortization) of the 2029 notes for purchase, totaling approximately $566.1 million in principal retired. This debt reduction is a credit-positive event that lowers leverage and interest expense, partially offsetting the net loss reported in the 2025 annual filing.
