Targa Resources Corp. has formally priced and detailed its $1.5 billion senior unsecured notes offering, which was previously announced on February 25, 2026. This offering, comprising two series of notes maturing in 2031 and 2056 with interest rates of 4.350% and 6.050% respectively, is a significant capital event for the company. The proceeds are primarily allocated to repay existing borrowings under its Commercial Paper Program and other indebtedness, including debt incurred for the recent Stakeholder Midstream acquisition and the redemption of higher-interest 6.875% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029.

The successful pricing near par, while the stock trades near its 52-week high, indicates strong market confidence in Targa's financial health and strategic direction.
