Broadridge Issues $500M 5.75% Senior Notes Due 2036 to Refinance Maturities

BRBR

Broadridge Financial Solutions priced $500 million of 5.750% senior notes due 2036. Net proceeds, plus cash on hand, will repay outstanding 3.400% senior notes maturing in 2026.

1. Offering Terms

Broadridge Financial Solutions launched an offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes carrying a coupon of 5.750%, with a final maturity date in 2036. The notes were registered under the Securities Act and priced to institutional investors by a syndicate of leading banks.

2. Use of Proceeds

The company plans to deploy the net proceeds from the notes issuance, together with existing cash reserves, to fully redeem its outstanding 3.400% senior notes that mature in 2026. This transaction extends the debt maturity by a decade.

3. Debt Profile Impact

By replacing shorter-term, lower-coupon debt with longer-dated notes at a higher rate, Broadridge shifts interest obligations out to 2036 while locking in funding costs. The move increases annual interest expense but improves liquidity by alleviating near-term refinancing risk.
