issuer rating financial
"Issuer rating(s) Long term ilA/Stable 07/01/2026"
An issuer rating is a standardized assessment of how likely an organization is to meet its financial obligations, similar to a credit score for a borrower. Investors use it to judge risk: higher ratings suggest lower chance of default and typically mean cheaper borrowing costs and lower yields, while lower ratings signal higher risk, potential price volatility for bonds, and a need for closer scrutiny when deciding whether to invest.
senior unsecured debt financial
"Senior unsecured debt Series C ilA Series D ilA Series F ilA"
A senior unsecured debt is a loan or bond that a company must repay before other unsecured obligations but is not backed by specific assets as collateral. Think of it as being earlier in line for repayment, like a preferred ticket in a queue, but without a guarantee you’ll get property if the company fails; that priority reduces risk compared with junior debt and affects expected interest rates and recovery prospects for investors.
Series G financial
"rating on bonds to be issued ... through the expansion of Series G"
Series G is a later-stage class of financing or preferred shares issued by a company, typically after several earlier funding rounds. For investors it signals continued capital raising at a more developed stage and can change who owns what and who gets paid first in a sale or bankruptcy—think of it as adding a new slice to the ownership pie with its own rules about payment order and conversion into common stock.
refinancing existing debt financial
"The proceeds from the issuance will be used mainly for the company's ongoing activity and for refinancing existing debt."
