Compass ( (COMP) ) has shared an announcement.

On January 8, 2026, Compass, Inc. announced it had priced an upsized private offering of $850 million in 0.25% convertible senior notes due April 15, 2031, with an option for initial purchasers to buy an additional $150 million, targeted to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A. The senior unsecured notes, guaranteed by key Compass subsidiaries, carry an initial conversion rate implying a $15.98 per-share conversion price—about a 35% premium to the January 7, 2026 NYSE closing price—and are supported by capped call transactions with a $23.68 cap, or a 100% premium, designed to limit potential dilution from conversion. Compass plans to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, including, if its previously announced merger with Anywhere Real Estate Inc. is completed, repaying portions of Anywhere’s existing indebtedness and covering merger-related costs, as well as funding the capped call transactions, a move that would strengthen the combined entity’s balance sheet and could influence trading dynamics in Compass’s Class A stock and the notes as counterparties hedge their positions.

The most recent analyst rating on (COMP) stock is a Hold with a $12.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Compass stock, see the COMP Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on COMP Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, COMP is a Neutral.

The score reflects improving cash generation and a firmer operating narrative (record Q3, positive EBITDA guidance, and OpEx discipline), supported by strong price trend vs. key moving averages. Offsetting these positives are ongoing profitability challenges (negative margins/ROE), limited valuation support due to a negative P/E and no dividend yield data, and merger-related legal/financing complexity.
