Capital One Closes $1.75B Subordinated Notes Offering

Capital One Financial Corp (NYSE:COF), a $78 billion market cap financial services giant, announced the closure of a public offering of $1.75 billion in subordinated notes, according to a recent SEC filing. The offering, which concluded on Thursday, involved the sale of 6.183% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2036. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company currently trades near its 52-week high of $207.24 and shows signs of being slightly undervalued based on its Fair Value assessment.

The transaction was managed by a syndicate of underwriters including Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) & Co. LLC, Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) Securities, LLC, and Capital One Securities, Inc.

The notes, which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, were offered via a registration statement on Form S-3. Capital One reported that the sale was conducted in accordance with an underwriting agreement dated January 28, 2025.
