Travel & Leisure Co. (NYSE:TNL) announced Tuesday that it has entered into a material definitive agreement for the issuance and sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior secured notes due 2033. The transaction was completed in partnership with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, and BofA Securities, Inc. along with other initial purchasers.
According to a statement released by the company, the net proceeds from the offering are expected to be used to redeem all outstanding 6.60% secured notes due October 2025, repay borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility due June 2030, cover fees and expenses related to the offering, and for general corporate purposes, which may include further debt paydowns. The company maintains strong liquidity with a current ratio of 3.72, and InvestingPro data shows its liquid assets exceed short-term obligations.
The notes will bear interest at a rate of 6.125% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1, beginning March 1, 2026. The notes are senior secured obligations and are equal in right of payment with the company’s existing and future senior indebtedness, including obligations under its credit agreement and other outstanding notes.
The notes are not guaranteed at issuance, but the indenture provides for the possibility of adding, releasing, or terminating subsidiary guarantees under certain conditions in the future. The company has the option to redeem the notes, in whole or in part, prior to August 15, 2028, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued interest. After August 15, 2028, the notes may be redeemed at specified premiums, and at par plus accrued interest on or after August 15, 2030.
In the event of a change of control triggering event, the company will be required to offer to repurchase the notes at 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Travel & Leisure Co. also confirmed that all conditions for the redemption of its 2025 notes have been met, with the redemption scheduled for September 4, 2025.
