By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., Jan. 18 – Acrisure LLC and Acrisure Finance Inc. priced an upsized $750 million issue of five-year senior secured notes (B3/B) at par to yield 8 1/8% on Friday, according to market sources.

The issue size increased from $500 million.

The yield printed at the tight end of yield talk in the 8¼% area and inside of early guidance in the mid 8% area.

The deal was heard to be playing to a $2 billion order book on Friday morning, a trader said.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets LLC and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey Inc. were the joint bookrunners.

The Grand Rapids, Mich.-based insurance brokerage plans to use the proceeds, including the additional proceeds resulting from the $250 million upsizing of the issue, to fund acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
