On March 30, 2026, Realty Income Corporation (NYSE: O), widely recognized as The Monthly Dividend Company®, announced the pricing of an extensive public offering of senior unsecured notes totaling $800 million. These notes are set to mature on April 15, 2033, and were priced at 98.261% of their principal amount, resulting in an effective yield to maturity of 5.047%.
As part of this offering, Realty Income has engaged in a $500 million U.S. Dollar-to-Euro cross currency swap with a seven-year term.

The net proceeds from the notes will be directed towards various corporate purposes. This could encompass areas such as the repayment or repurchase of existing debts, deployment of funds to foreign currency swaps or other hedging strategies, and investments in the development, redevelopment, and acquisition of new properties. Furthermore, these funds may assist in facilitating business combination transactions to enhance Realty Income's portfolio and operational capacity.
The closing of this offering is projected to occur on April 7, 2026, once customary closing conditions are met. Wells Fargo Securities, BBVA, BofA Securities, J.P. Morgan, and TD Securities are the active joint book-running managers overseeing this significant offering.
