New York, April 25 - BB&T Corp. sold $1 billion of three-year notes (A2/A/A+) in two parts on Monday, a source close to the sale said late in the day.
The $300 million of three-year floating-rate notes priced at par to yield three-month Libor plus 70 basis points. This was at the low end of guidance in the Libor plus 75 bps area.
A $700 million tranche of 2.05% three-year fixed-rate notes sold at 99.954 to yield 2.066% with a spread of Treasuries plus 95 bps. This was also at the tight end of talk in the 95 bps to 100 bps range.
Both notes are non-callable.
Bookrunners were BB&T Capital Markets and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.
Proceeds are being used for general corporate purposes.
The financial services company is based in Winton-Salem, N.C.
