Summary
On April 26, 2023, Private Export Funding Corporation (PEFCO or the Company) issued $300 million of Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the Notes) at a spread of +43 bps for a coupon of 3.900%. The Notes drew significant interest from a wide investor base with a couple of strong anchor orders, garnering a total orderbook of approximately $1.0 billion, good for a 3.5x oversubscription. The Company plans to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund outstanding loan commitments. KeyBanc Capital Markets acted as Active Joint Bookrunner on the transaction.
PEFCO is principally engaged in making U.S. Dollar loans to foreign importers to finance purchases of U.S. goods and services. The Company was established by a group of U.S. financial institutions with the support of the U.S. Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the Export Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank) to assist in the financing of U.S. exports through the mobilization of private capital as a supplement to the financing already available through Ex-Im Bank.
