  • Long-dated maturities (due 2056) provide extended financing term for the issued notes

Insights

TL;DR: ET priced $2.0B of long-dated subordinated notes to repay revolver borrowings and support partnership liquidity; terms are explicitly stated.

The Partnership issued two tranches of junior subordinated notes due 2056 totaling $2.0 billion, with fixed coupons of 6.500% (Series 2025A) and 6.750% (Series 2025B). Net proceeds are stated as $1.980 billion before offering expenses and are intended to repay borrowings under the revolving credit facility and for general partnership purposes. The offering is registered on Form S-3 and expected to close on August 25, 2025, subject to customary conditions. The filing also discloses that underwriter affiliates are lenders under the revolver and may receive repayment proceeds, which is a disclosed related-party flow.

TL;DR: Two long-dated junior subordinated tranches were priced, locking in fixed coupons and providing near-term liquidity via $1.98B net proceeds.

The transaction establishes long-dated (2056) junior subordinated debt with stated fixed coupons of 6.500% and 6.750%, creating a predictable interest expense profile for these instruments. The stated use of proceeds is repayment of revolver borrowings and general partnership purposes, which directly converts short-term revolver exposure into long-dated subordinated paper. The underwriting agreement contains customary representations and indemnities and identifies major banks as joint book-runners; affiliates of those underwriters are lenders under the revolver and may receive repayment proceeds. Closing remains subject to customary conditions.
