Khối lượng phát hành trái phiếu trung tâm dữ liệu liên kết với Microsoft tăng lên 3,9 tỷ USD amid nhu cầu mạnh mẽ từ nhà đầu tư

The ME News report states that on August 18 (UTC+8), a $3.9 billion bond issuance linked to Microsoft attracted over $8 billion in investor demand, prompting the issuer to increase the deal size by approximately $1 billion from its original target. The bond will be issued through a subsidiary of QTS Realty Trust LLC, backed by Blackstone, to finance a data center project in Georgia, USA. The debt is expected to be issued by two special-purpose limited liability subsidiaries of QualityTech LP, a subsidiary of QTS. The coupon rate for this bond issuance is expected to be around 6% at the back end, with the bond being issued at a discount to achieve an effective yield in the mid-to-high 7% range. Although the bond is anticipated to receive an investment-grade rating, its yield level is comparable to that of a single-B rated junk bond. Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley held conference calls with investors last week to present the bond offering. These banks are acting as underwriters for the transaction, and the bond has been marketed to the market for several consecutive days. This bond deal could be priced as early as Tuesday, but discussions are still ongoing, and the final issuance plan may still change. (Source: BlockBeats)
