Knoxville, Tenn., Dec. 13 – Tuesday saw four private placements announced. A subsidiary of Aryzta AG completed a €386 million private placement of fixed- and floating-rate notes in euros and dollars, Allete, Inc. said it plans to sell $80 million of 3.11% 10-year senior notes, Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc. agreed to sell $79.5 million of floating-rate senior secured notes due 2023, and Vasari Energy, Inc. negotiated a $5 million private placement of 7% preferred stock to finance solar power plants.
Aryzta subsidiary Aryzta Euro Finance DAC sold notes in a Schuldschein with maturities between three and seven years and a weighted average maturity of just over four years. The notes have an initial weighted average interest rate of 1.65%. Joint lead managers BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Helaba, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and Mizuho Securities USA Inc. assisted with the sale.
