New Issue: Icahn prices upsized $200 million tap of new 9¾% notes at 100.625 to yield 9.587%

By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., Dec. 15 – Icahn Enterprises LP and Icahn Enterprises Finance Corp. (IEP) priced an upsized $200 million add-on of 9¾% senior bullet notes due Jan. 15, 2029 (Ba3/BB) at 100.625 to yield 9.587% in a Friday drive-by, according to an informed source.

The deal size increased from the $150 million.

It priced at the rich end of price talk in the 100.5 area.

Jefferies LLC was the sole bookrunner.

The New York-based diversified holding company plans to use the proceeds plus cash on the balance sheet to redeem its 4¾% senior notes due 2024, continuing the refinancing of that issue which it undertook with the $500 million original issue that IEP priced last Tuesday.
