Preferred stock investors digest U.S. payrolls data; IberiaBank, Huntington see activity
By Christine Van Dusen
Atlanta, May 6 – As investors digested new payrolls data from the United States – which showed the U.S. economy added fewer-than-expected jobs in April – recent new issues from IberiaBank Corp. and Huntington Bancshares Inc. received some attention in the preferred stock market.
The new issue from IberiaBank – $50 million 6.6% series C fixed-to-floating rate noncumulative perpetual preferred stock via Keefe, Bruyette & Woods and BofA Merrill Lynch – traded at $25.30, flat to Thursday. By the close, the notes had jumped up to $25.55.
The bank’s 6.625% series B fixed-to-floating rate noncumulative perpetual preferreds (Nasdaq: IBKCP) traded Friday morning at $25.69, down a penny, before closing at $25.75.
Huntington Bancshares’ new $200 million of its 6.25% series D noncumulative perpetual preferred stock (Nasdaq: HBANO) traded Friday morning at $26.20, up 12 cents. The preferreds closed at $26.17.
The Columbus, Ohio-based bank announced the offering late Monday. Huntington initially sold $350 million of the preferreds on March 14. Another $50 million of a $52.5 million greenshoe was exercised, lifting total issuance to $400 million.
Wells Fargo Securities LLC ran the books on the add-on deal. BofA Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, UBS Securities LLC and the Huntington Investment Co. were joint lead managers.
Hercules Capital Inc. saw its $65.4 million add-on to its 6.25% $25-par notes due 2024 (NYSE: HTGX) trade at $25.04, flat to Thursday. The notes closed Friday at $24.98.
