Clarivate Commences Offer to Purchase for Cash Certain of its Outstanding Debt Securities

NEW YORK, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Clarivate Plc (NYSE: CLVT) (“Clarivate”), a leading global provider of transformative intelligence, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Clarivate Science Holdings Corporation (the “Company”), has commenced a cash tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase the outstanding notes described below, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated September 17, 2026 (the “Offer to Purchase”).

The Company is offering to purchase in the Offer its 3.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”) for the consideration described below, subject to a $75,000,000 cap on the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased in the Offer (the “Tender Cap”) subject to proration and the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase. Subject to applicable law, the Company may, but is under no obligation to, eliminate, increase or decrease the Tender Cap at any time prior to the Expiration Date. In the event proration is required with respect to the Notes, the Company will multiply the principal amount of each valid tender of such Notes by the proration rate and round the resulting amount down to the nearest $1,000 principal amount in order to determine the principal amount of such tender that will be accepted pursuant to the Offer. The excess principal amount of Notes not accepted from the tendering Holders will be promptly returned to such Holders, and if this excess principal amount of Notes is less than $2,000, the Company may either accept or reject all such tendering Holders’ validly tendered Notes in its sole discretion. Additionally, the Company may increase the amount of Notes accepted for payment in the Offer by no more than 2% of the outstanding Notes without amending or extending the Offer, and may also increase or decrease the percentage of the Notes accepted for payment in the Offer (including by more than 2% of the outstanding Notes) by a press release or other public announcement that is widely disseminated by Clarivate by no later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the third business day before the scheduled Expiration Date. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this press release have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

The “Total Consideration” payable per each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered for purchase will be based on the Fixed Spread, plus the Reference Yield based on the Reference Security as quoted on the Bloomberg Reference Page as of 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 23, 2026, unless extended by the Company with respect to the Offer (such date and time, as the same may be extended by the Company with respect to the Offer, the “Price Determination Date”). Unless extended, promptly after the Price Determination Date, Clarivate will announce in a press release, among other things, the Total Consideration. In addition to the Total Consideration, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer will receive accrued and unpaid interest on those Notes from the last interest payment date with respect to those Notes to, but excluding, the Settlement Date (the “Accrued Interest,” and the payment thereof, the “Accrued Coupon Payment”).

The Offer is scheduled to expire on the Expiration Date, which is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 23, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company. Tenders of Notes may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 23, 2026, but, except as provided in the Offer to Purchase or required by applicable law, may not be validly withdrawn thereafter.

The “Settlement Date” will be the second business day after the Expiration Date and is expected to be September 25, 2026.

The Offer is subject to certain conditions as described in the Offer to Purchase. If any condition is not satisfied, the Company is not obligated to accept for payment, purchase or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered Notes, in each case subject to applicable law, and may terminate or alter the Offer. The Offer is not contingent upon the tender of any aggregate minimum principal amount of Notes (subject to minimum denomination requirements as set forth in the Offer to Purchase).

The Company has retained Citigroup Global Markets Inc. to act as dealer manager (the “Dealer Manager”) for the Offer. Global Bondholder Services Corporation will act as the Tender and Information Agent for the Offer. For additional information, please contact: Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at +1 (800) 558-3745 (toll-free) or +1 (212) 723-6106 (collect). Requests for documents and questions regarding the tendering of Notes may be directed to Global Bondholder Services Corporation by telephone at (212) 430-3774 (for banks and brokers only) and (855) 654-2015 (for all others toll-free) or to the Dealer Manager at its telephone number. Copies of the Offer to Purchase are available at: https://www.gbsc-usa.com/clarivate/. You may also contact your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the Offer.

Holders of Notes are advised to check with each bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold Notes as to when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from a beneficial owner in order for that Holder to be able to participate in, or withdraw their instruction to participate in the Offer before the deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and DTC for the submission and withdrawal of tender instructions may be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase.

This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell the Notes or any other securities. The Offer is made only by and pursuant to the terms of the Offer to Purchase and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law. The information in this press release is qualified by reference to the Offer to Purchase. None of the Company, Clarivate, the Dealer Manager or the Tender and Information Agent makes any recommendation as to whether Holders should tender their Notes pursuant to the Offer. Holders must make their own decisions as to whether to tender Notes, and, if so, the principal amount of Notes to tender.
