Travel + Leisure Co. Announces Pricing of $900 Million of Senior Secured Notes Due 2031
Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE:TNL) (the "Company") announced today the pricing of its private offering (the "Offering") of $900 million aggregate principal amount of its senior secured notes due 2031 (the "Notes"). The Offering is expected to close on May 20, 2026. The closing of the Offering is subject to the satisfaction of customary and market conditions.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this Offering to redeem all of the Company's outstanding 6.625% secured notes due July 2026, towards repayment of outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and, to the extent there are any remaining proceeds, for general corporate purposes.
The Notes will bear interest at the rate of 6.250% per year. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing December 1, 2026. The Notes will mature on June 1, 2031 unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their terms. Prior to June 1, 2028, we will be entitled at our option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus a "make-whole premium" plus any accrued and unpaid interest. At any time on or after June 1, 2028, we may redeem all or a portion of the Notes at certain redemption prices above their face amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. On or after June 1, 2030 we will be able to redeem the Notes at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The Notes were offered at a price of 100% of their principal amount.
The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), any state securities laws or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States, or for the benefit of U.S. persons, except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws. Accordingly, the Notes were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be "qualified institutional buyers," as that term is defined under Rule 144A of the Securities Act, or to non-"U.S. persons" in offshore transactions in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.
A confidential offering memorandum for the Offering of the Notes has been made available to such eligible persons. The Offering is being conducted in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in such confidential offering memorandum.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, a solicitation to buy or an offer to purchase or sell any securities. No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offer, or solicitation to buy, if at all, will be made only by means of a confidential offering memorandum.
