25 Marzo 2024 - 9:01PM
Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. (TSX: BEP.UN; NYSE: BEP) and
Brookfield Renewable Corporation (NYSE, TSX: BEPC) (together with
Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P., “Brookfield Renewable”) today
announced the closing of the issuance of a series of $150 million
of fixed rate green perpetual subordinated notes (the “sub notes”),
which upon settling of a concurrently executed Canadian dollar swap
have an effective coupon rate of 6.78%. The sub notes, which have a
coupon of 7.25%, will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange
under the symbol “BEPJ” and have the same accounting and rating
treatment as our Preferred Limited Partnership (“LP”) Units.
The sub notes will represent Brookfield
Renewable’s thirteenth green labelled corporate securities issuance
and the second issuance under Brookfield Renewable’s 2024 Green
Financing Framework. Brookfield Renewable will use the net proceeds
from the sale of the sub notes to finance or refinance eligible
investments under Brookfield Renewable’s 2024 Green Financing
Framework, including the redemption of its Class A Preferred LP
Units, Series 15 (the “Series 15 Preferred
Units”), which were scheduled to reset in April at
approximately 70 basis points higher than the newly issued sub
notes.
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BofA Securities,
Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and
RBC Capital Markets, LLC acted as joint book-running managers for
the offering.
This news release does not constitute an offer
to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the sub notes
described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these sub notes in
any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the
securities laws of such jurisdiction.
The sub notes were not offered or sold, directly
or indirectly, in Canada or to any resident of Canada.
