HCP HCP Inc

HCP, Inc. (NYSE:HCP) today priced an offering of $800 million of 3.875% senior unsecured notes due 2024. The offering size was increased in response to investor demand. The price to investors was 99.630% of the principal amount of the notes representing a yield-to-maturity of 3.920%.

The net proceeds from the offering after expenses are approximately $789.7 million and will be used together with cash on hand to repay the amount outstanding under HCP’s revolving line of credit, which was $300 million as of August 6, 2014. Such borrowings were principally used to (a) fund a portion of the recent acquisitions disclosed in HCP’s Quarterly Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and (b) repay an aggregate of $87 million of HCP’s medium-term notes, which matured on June 15, 2014. HCP intends to use the remaining net proceeds raised in the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of the cash contribution to its previously announced strategic joint venture with Brookdale Senior Living Inc. or other future acquisitions, investments or repayment of indebtedness.

The offering is expected to close on August 14, 2014, subject to customary closing conditions.
