Tupelo, Miss., June 16 – Partners Value Split Corp., formerly known as BAM Split Corp., announced on Monday that it sold C$200 million of class AA preferred shares due Oct. 8, 2021 (DBRS: Pfd-2) with a 4.5% fixed dividend.

The company priced 8 million shares of the series 6 preferred stock at C$25.00 per share.

The deal includes an over-allotment option of C$30 million, or 1.2 million shares.
