Business Wire
BXP, Inc. (NYSE: BXP) (“BXP”), the largest publicly
traded developer, owner and manager of premier workplaces in the
United States, announced today that its operating partnership,
Boston Properties Limited Partnership (“BPLP”), has agreed to sell
$850.0 million of 5.750% senior unsecured notes due 2035 in an
underwritten public offering through J.P. Morgan Securities LLC,
Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, PNC Capital Markets LLC, TD
Securities (USA) LLC, Truist Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo
Securities, LLC, as joint book-running managers. The notes were
priced at 99.961% of the principal amount to yield 5.756% to
maturity. The notes will mature on January 15, 2035, unless earlier
redeemed. The offering is expected to close on August 26, 2024,
subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The estimated net proceeds from this offering are expected to be
approximately $841.9 million. BPLP intends to use the net proceeds
from the sale of the notes for the repayment of debt, which may
include funding all or a portion of the redemption of the $850.0
million aggregate principal amount of BPLP’s 3.200% senior notes
due 2025 that are scheduled to mature on January 15, 2025 (the
“2025 Notes”). Pending such use, BPLP may invest the net proceeds
in short-term, interest-bearing deposit accounts.
The impact of this offering was not previously reflected in
BXP’s earnings guidance for third quarter and full year 2024. BXP
estimates the offering will reduce third quarter and full year 2024
(1) net income attributable to common shareholders (EPS) by
approximately $0.005 per share and $0.02 per share, respectively,
and (2) diluted funds from operations (FFO) per share by
approximately $0.005 per share and $0.02 per share, respectively,
due to increased net interest expense associated with the
offering.
BPLP has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus
and a preliminary prospectus supplement) with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the offering to which this
communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the
prospectus and the preliminary prospectus supplement in that
