Starwood Property Trust Prices $500M Sustainability Bond Offering at 5.875% Due 2029
Summary
Starwood Property Trust priced a $500 million private offering of 5.875% unsecured senior notes due 2029. This follows the company's announcement of the offering earlier today and a $600 million bond offering in May. The company recently reported a decline in Q1 EPS and significant loan foreclosures. The proceeds will primarily finance green and social projects, and also redeem $500 million of existing 4.375% senior notes due 2027. This extends the maturity of a significant portion of debt by two years but at a higher interest rate, impacting future interest expenses. The offering is expected to settle on July 10, 2026.
