The New York City Transitional Finance Authority (“TFA”) announced the successful sale of $1.2 billion of future tax secured subordinate bonds, comprised of approximately $1.08 billion of tax-exempt fixed rate bonds and roughly $118 million of taxable fixed rate bonds. Proceeds from the sale will be used to refund certain outstanding bonds for savings. The refunding achieves approximately $184 million in total debt service savings, which is primarily spread evenly across Fiscal Years 2024 through 2027.
During the retail order period for the tax-exempt bonds, TFA received over $422 million of orders from retail investors, of which about $418 million was usable.
Final yields ranged from 2.39% to 3.46%.
The tax-exempt bonds were underwritten through TFA’s underwriting syndicate led by book-running lead manager BofA Securities, with RBC Capital Markets and Siebert Williams Shank serving as co-senior managers.
TFA also sold approximately $118 million of taxable fixed rate bonds via competitive bid. The bid attracted 11 bidders, with BofA Securities winning at a true interest cost of 4.597%.
