Insights

Sunoco's $1.9B upsized debt offering demonstrates strong market confidence while increasing leverage to fund Parkland acquisition.

Sunoco LP has successfully priced an upsized $1.9 billion private offering of senior notes, consisting of $1 billion in 5.625% notes due 2031 and $900 million in 5.875% notes due 2034. The market's reception appears robust, as evidenced by the 10.6% increase from the initial offering size of $1.7 billion and the ability to price at 100% of face value.

The yield differential between the two tranches reflects the term premium, with only a 0.25% step-up for the additional three years of duration on the 2034 notes. This relatively tight spread suggests investors are comfortable with Sunoco's longer-term credit profile despite the leverage increase from the Parkland acquisition.

The inclusion of a special mandatory redemption provision offers investors protection if the Parkland acquisition falls through by May 2026. This debt-financed portion of the acquisition complements Sunoco's previously announced preferred equity offering, creating a balanced funding approach that distributes the financial burden across different capital instruments.

The successful upsizing indicates strong institutional appetite for Sunoco's credit, but investors should recognize this substantial debt issuance will increase the company's leverage ratios and interest expense in the near term. The strategic rationale for the Parkland acquisition will need to deliver sufficient operational synergies and cash flow enhancement to justify this significant increase in financial obligations.

DALLAS, Sept. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("Sunoco") today announced that it has priced at 100% a private offering (this "offering") of 5.625% senior notes due 2031 in an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion (the "2031 notes") and 5.875% senior notes due 2034 in an aggregate principal amount of $900 million (the "2034 notes," and collectively with the 2031 notes, the "notes"). This offering was upsized from an initial offering size of $850 million aggregate principal amount of the 2031 notes and $850 million aggregate principal amount of the 2034 notes. The sale of the notes is expected to settle on September 18, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Sunoco intends to use the net proceeds from this offering (i) on the closing date (the "Effective Date") of Sunoco's acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Parkland Corporation ("Parkland" and such acquisition, the "Parkland Acquisition"), together with the net proceeds of the previously announced private offering of its Series A Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (the "Preferred Equity Offering"), to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Parkland Acquisition and related transaction costs, with the remaining proceeds, if any, to be used for general corporate purposes, and (ii) prior to the Effective Date, to temporarily reduce the borrowings outstanding under Sunoco's revolving credit facility and pay interest and fees in connection therewith. This offering is not contingent on the completion of the Parkland Acquisition or the Preferred Equity Offering, and neither the Parkland Acquisition nor the Preferred Equity Offering is conditioned on the completion of this offering.

If (i) the Parkland Acquisition has not been completed on or prior to May 5, 2026 (the "Special Mandatory Redemption Date"), or (ii) prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, (a) the Arrangement Agreement, dated as of May 4, 2025, among Sunoco, Parkland and certain of their respective affiliates, is terminated or (b) Sunoco will not pursue the completion of the Parkland Acquisition or has determined in its sole discretion that the completion of the Parkland Acquisition cannot or is not reasonably likely to be satisfied by the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption at a price equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date.

This offering of the notes has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, the notes may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
