Digital Realty issues €1bn of 5.125 percent green notes due 2036
Digital Realty's euro finance subsidiary issued €1bn of guaranteed notes Friday, adding long-dated unsecured debt to fund eligible green projects.
The proceeds are substantial.
The notes mature in 2036, pay 5.125 percent annually and were sold at 99.289 percent of principal. Digital Realty reported about €985.8m of net proceeds after discounts and estimated expenses.
The company intends to allocate an equivalent amount to renewable energy, efficiency, pollution-control, clean-transport, water and green-building projects. Pending allocation, it may temporarily repay revolving credit, acquire properties or businesses, fund development, hold interest-bearing investments or meet other corporate needs, while the indenture restricts additional debt and requires a pool of unencumbered assets.
