Insights

Blue Owl Technology Finance raises $400M in 2031 notes to refinance debt.

Blue Owl Technology Finance Corp. has issued $400,000,000 in 6.125% notes due 2031, adding fixed-rate, unsecured term funding to its capital structure. The notes pay 6.125% interest semiannually and mature on January 23, 2031, providing long-dated liability duration compared with its revolving credit facility maturing December 20, 2029.

The company expects to use net proceeds to pay down existing indebtedness, including its senior secured revolving credit facility, effectively terming out a portion of secured, floating-rate borrowings into unsecured, fixed-rate debt. This shifts part of funding from SOFR-based variable costs to a known coupon, which may reduce exposure to future benchmark rate moves while increasing fixed interest obligations.

The indenture includes covenants tied to Investment Company Act asset coverage requirements and a change of control repurchase feature at 100% of principal plus accrued interest if the notes fall below investment grade following a change of control. Future disclosures in company filings may provide more color on leverage metrics and any subsequent use of the revolver after this refinancing step.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On January 23, 2026, Blue Owl Technology Finance Corp. (the “Company”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as successor to Computershare Trust Company, as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”), entered into a Sixth Supplemental Indenture (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture”) to the Indenture, dated as of June 12, 2020, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Base Indenture”, and together with the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), relating to the Company’s $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.125% notes due 2031 (the “Notes”).
The Notes will mature on January 23, 2031, and prior to December 23, 2030 (one month prior to the maturity date of the Notes) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of  (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the treasury rate plus 40 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.125% per year payable semiannually on January 23 and July 23 of each year, commencing on July 23, 2026. The Notes are direct, general unsecured obligations of the Company.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds of this offering to pay down certain of its existing outstanding indebtedness, including its senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). Amounts drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on December 20, 2029.
The Indenture contains certain covenants including covenants requiring the Company to comply with Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor provisions, but giving effect, in either case, to any exemptive relief granted to the Company by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and to provide financial information to the holders of the Notes and the Trustee if the Company should no longer be subject to the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture.
In addition, upon the occurrence of a change of control repurchase event (which involves the occurrence of both a change of control and a below investment grade rating of the Notes by Fitch Ratings, Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. and S&P Global Ratings), the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of purchase.
The Notes were offered and sold pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-289793) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement dated January 20, 2026, a final prospectus supplement dated January 20, 2026, and the pricing term sheet dated January 20, 2026.
