Sysco Offers Two C$750M Notes for Proposed Deal
Specified failure of the Jetro Restaurant Depot acquisition triggers mandatory redemption at 101% of principal plus accrued interest.
Sysco Corporation (SYY) and its wholly owned subsidiary Sysco Holdings Corporation are offering C$750,000,000 of 4.250% senior notes due October 3, 2030, and C$750,000,000 of 4.800% senior notes due October 3, 2034. Interest is payable semiannually on April 3 and October 3, beginning April 3, 2027. Estimated net proceeds are approximately C$1.49 billion after underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses.
The issuers intend to use the proceeds, alongside other financing and cash on hand, to pay the cash consideration and related costs for Sysco’s proposed acquisition of Jetro Restaurant Depot; the notes offering is not contingent on closing. If the acquisition does not close by March 30, 2028 (or a later date agreed by the parties), Sysco gives written notice that the merger agreement has terminated, or Sysco notifies the trustee in writing and publicly announces that it will not pursue the deal, the issuers must redeem the notes at 101% of principal plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. As of June 27, 2026, pro forma total debt after the acquisition and financing transactions would have been approximately $34.4 billion. The notes are unsecured senior obligations and are structurally subordinated to liabilities of non-guarantor subsidiaries.
