Euronet Worldwide Announces Offering of $125 Million of Convertible Debentures

LEAWOOD, KANSAS—September 28, 2005—Euronet Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ: EEFT), a leading electronic payments provider, today announced that it plans to offer to qualified institutional buyers, pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, $125 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Debentures due 2025. Euronet also plans to grant to the initial purchaser an option to purchase up to an additional $15 million aggregate principal amount of the debentures.

The debentures will be unsecured obligations of Euronet, subordinated in right of payment to Euronet’s secured credit facilities and any secured renewel, refinancing or replacement thereof, and will be convertible, under certain circumstances, into common stock of Euronet. The debentures may not be redeemed by Euronet prior to October 2012. Holders of the debentures may require Euronet to repurchase some or all of the debentures in October 2012, 2015, and 2020 and upon certain specified corporate transactions.

Euronet intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include share repurchases, acquisitions of non-US entities or other strategic investments. The closing of the sale of any debentures is subject to Euronet’s satisfaction with the final terms, including conversion premium and coupon rate.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy any securities. The offering will be made only to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The securities to be offered have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
