TD ANNOUNCES NON-VIABILITY CONTINGENT CAPITAL SUBORDINATED NOTES ISSUE
The Toronto-Dominion Bank today priced a United States public offering of $1-billion (U.S.) of 5.146-per-cent non-viability contingent capital subordinated notes due 2034, which will constitute subordinated indebtedness of TD. The notes are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).
The notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.146 per cent per annum (paid semi-annually) to, but excluding, Sept. 10, 2029 (the reset date). On and after the reset date, to, but excluding Sept. 10, 2034, interest on the notes will reset at an interest rate per annum equal to the sum (paid semi-annually), as determined by TD or its designee, of (i) the prevailing U.S. treasury rate plus (ii) 1.500 per cent. The notes will mature on Sept. 10, 2034. The expected closing date of the offering is Sept. 10, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions.
TD may, at its option, with the prior written approval of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (Canada), redeem the notes on Sept. 10, 2029, in whole at par plus accrued and unpaid interest on not more than 60 nor less than 10 days of notice to the holders.
The net proceeds from this transaction will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the redemption of outstanding capital securities and/or the repayment of other outstanding liabilities. The notes are expected to qualify as Tier 2 capital of TD for regulatory purposes.
TD Securities, BofA Securities, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, NatWest Markets and Standard Chartered Bank are the joint book-running managers on the issue.
