New Issue: Sumitomo Mitsui sells $5.8 billion offering of notes in five parts

Chicago, Jan. 4 – Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. sold $5.8 billion of notes in five parts (A1/A-) on Tuesday, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The deal broke down into one tranche of senior floating-rate notes due 2026 and four fixed-rate notes with tenors of three years to 10 years.

Both the floating-rate tranche and one tranche of the fixed-rate notes have a three-year tenor.

The bank sold $300 million of floating-rate notes and $1.5 billion of 5.464% senior notes due 2026. Both notes priced at par, with the spread on the fixed-rate notes 130 basis points above Treasuries.

The floating-rate notes will have interest based on SOFR plus 143 bps, payable quarterly.

The issuer also priced $1.5 billion of 5.52% notes with a five-year tenor at par. The spread was 130 bps to Treasuries.

Seven-year notes priced out as $1 billion of 5.71% notes, also at par. Spread pricing came at 160 bps to the benchmark Treasury.

The longest tranche priced as $1.5 billion of 5.766% notes with a 10-year tenor, at par. The spread was 200 bps to the benchmark Treasury.

Except for taxation reasons, none of the tranches are callable.
