Analysis · BBT · Finance
Beacon Financial finalized terms on its subordinated notes offering, increasing the size to $175 million from the $125 million indicated earlier today. The notes carry a 6.25% fixed rate for five years, then float at SOFR plus 215 basis points. Proceeds will refinance $75 million of 2029 notes and fund general corporate purposes. The upsize and investment-grade ratings (Baa3/BBB-) suggest solid institutional demand, but the additional $50 million in debt adds modest leverage.
