Proceeds of the Series 2025 Bonds will be used to (a) currently refund Pennybyrn's Series 2015 Bonds, (b) fund $3 million in new money capital for various campus improvements, (c) fund a debt service reserve fund and (c) fund the costs incurred with the issuance of the bonds.The Series 2025 Bonds are non-rated and are being issued through the North Carolina Medical Care Commission.
As part of financing strategy, Pennybyrn is extending the maturity on the refunding component that, even when factoring in the debt service of the new money component, will result in a reduction of their maximum annual debt service by $1.1 million. The Series 2025 Bonds have a 30-year final maturity with an amortization structure that results in a weighted average maturity of 11.4 years, and a blended yield to maturity of 4.775%.
“We are extremely pleased with the successful pricing of the Series 2025 Bonds and honored to continue our longstanding relationship with Pennybyrn. This financing not only enhances Pennybyrn's capital structure but also supports meaningful reinvestment into their campus.
