Blue Owl secures $750m bond financing to repay revolving credit borrowings
Blue Owl Capital has raised $750m through a new investment-grade bond issue, with proceeds earmarked to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facilities, according to a report by Bloomberg.
Blue Owl Capital secured $750 million in investment-grade bond financing to repay debt under its revolving credit facilities, Bloomberg reported. The bond issue, initially set at $500 million, saw strong investor demand and was expanded to meet that higher target. The 10-year notes were priced with a yield 2.20 percentage points higher than comparable US Treasuries, slightly tighter than initially anticipated.
According to unnamed sources, investor interest peaked at around $3.3 billion, nearly four times the final amount raised. The funds were issued by Blue Owl Finance with guarantees from several entities, including Blue Owl Capital. The proceeds will be utilized to pay down existing revolving credit borrowings. This year, three Blue Owl funds have collectively raised $1.8 billion through four note offerings, indicating continued access to the debt markets despite increased scrutiny in the private credit sector.
