Pinnacle West sells $300M senior notes

Pinnacle West Capital Corp. sold $300 million of its 2.25% senior notes due Nov. 30, 2020.

The company plans to use proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including the repayment at, or prior to, maturity of its $125 million term loan.

Until the proceeds are used for those purposes, Pinnacle West said it may also temporarily invest the proceeds in highly liquid short-term investments such as institutional money market funds, deposit the net proceeds with banks, repay short-term borrowings or temporarily utilize the proceeds in its business.

Interest is payable semiannually May 30 and Nov. 30, starting May 30, 2018. The notes have a spread to benchmark Treasury of 43 basis points, according to a Nov. 28 free writing prospectus. The issuance was expected to be rated A3 by Moody's, BBB+ by S&P Global Ratings and A- by Fitch Ratings.

Barclays Capital Inc., Mizuho Securities USA LLC, SunTrust Robinson Humphrey Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities acted as joint book-running managers.

S&P Global Ratings and S&P Global Market Intelligence are owned by S&P Global Inc.
