Digital Realty Trust announced that its finance subsidiary priced a €1 billion senior unsecured note offering with a 5.125% annual coupon. The notes were sold at 99.289% of face value and are fully guaranteed by the company and its operating partnership. Interest will be paid each year starting 9 Oct 2026 and the notes mature on 9 Oct 2036. Closing of the transaction is expected on 9 Oct 2026, subject to customary conditions.
Why it matters
The company says the net proceeds will be used to fund or refinance projects that meet its Green Bond Framework, as well as for general corporate purposes such as repaying revolving credit facilities or acquiring assets. This adds €1 billion of long‑term financing to Digital Realty’s balance sheet, which may affect its leverage ratios and liquidity profile.
