Phillips 66 Announces Redemption of Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2024

By: via Business Wire

Actions align with company’s focus on debt reduction

Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) today announced it will redeem the entire outstanding principal amount of its Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”). The redemption date for the Notes is December 15, 2021. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding is $450 million. The redemption price for the Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date. Phillips 66 plans to use cash on hand to fund the redemption.

A notice of redemption is being sent to all currently registered holders of the Notes by the Trustee, U.S. Bank National Association.

“Today’s announcement reaffirms our commitment to repaying debt as our cash flow recovers. When the redemption of the Notes is completed, we will have paid down an aggregate of $1.5 billion of debt in 2021,” said Kevin Mitchell, Executive Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer. “We will continue to evaluate paying down additional debt to return to pre-pandemic debt levels as part of our disciplined capital allocation.”

This news release is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
