The New York City Transitional Finance Authority (“TFA”) announced today the successful sale of approximately $1.0 billion future tax secured subordinate bonds, comprised of $850 million of tax- exempt fixed rate bonds and $140 million of taxable fixed rate bonds.

During the retail order period for the tax-exempt bonds, TFA received $295 million of retail orders, of which approximately $234 million was usable.  During the institutional order period, TFA received $1.2 billion of priority orders, representing 2.0x the bonds offered for sale to institutional investors.

Final stated yields on the tax-exempt bonds varied by coupon and maturity, ranging from 1.00% for the 2019 maturity to 3.16% for the 4% coupon maturing in 2042, 3.40% for the 3.375% coupon bond maturing in 2045 and 2.91% for the 5%  coupon maturing in 2045.

The tax-exempt bonds were sold via negotiated sale through TFA’s underwriting syndicate, led by book-running senior manager Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, with BofA Merrill Lynch, Citigroup, Jefferies, J.P. Morgan, Loop Capital Markets, Ramirez & Co., Inc., RBC Capital Markets and Siebert Cisneros Shank & Co., L.L.C.  as co-senior managers.

TFA also sold $140 million of taxable fixed rate bonds via competitive bid. The taxable bonds maturing in 2020 through 2029 attracted seven bidders, with J.P. Morgan winning at a true interest cost of 2.909%.
