Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. priced a $750 million senior notes offering due 2036 on February 10, 2026. The notes were priced at 99.679% of principal, yielding 5.291% and carrying a 5.25% coupon. The offering is unsecured but fully guaranteed by Alexandria Real Estate Equities, L.P., an indirectly 100% owned subsidiary.
Net proceeds will be directed toward repaying a portion of the company’s commercial paper borrowings and redeeming part of the tender‑offer notes issued earlier in the year. The tender‑offer notes were purchased at an aggregate price of $952,202,784.40, and the new notes will help reduce the company’s short‑term debt load while extending maturities. The closing of the transaction is expected on or about February 25, 2026.
The financing is part of a coordinated capital‑structure adjustment aimed at reducing long‑dated debt and improving liquidity. By refinancing commercial paper and tender‑offer notes, Alexandria Real Estate Equities can lower its overall cost of capital and mitigate refinancing risk as the new notes mature in 2036. The company’s balance sheet remains strong, with $5.3 billion in liquidity and an average remaining debt maturity exceeding 12 years, according to CFO Paul Binda.
Executive Chairman Joel Marcus highlighted 2026 as a year of “timely execution,” emphasizing dispositions, balance‑sheet flexibility, leasing of vacant or rollover space, and sharply reduced capital expenditures. These priorities align with the debt‑refinancing strategy, signaling a focus on maintaining financial flexibility while pursuing growth opportunities in life‑science real‑estate markets.
The offering reflects Alexandria Real Estate Equities’ broader strategy to manage leverage and capitalize on favorable market conditions for long‑dated debt. By extending maturities and reducing short‑term borrowing, the company positions itself to navigate industry headwinds while preserving the ability to fund future acquisitions and property developments.
The transaction underscores the company’s commitment to prudent capital management and its ability to secure favorable financing terms in a competitive debt market. The new notes provide a stable, long‑term funding source that supports Alexandria Real Estate Equities’ growth initiatives and reinforces its status as a leading life‑science real‑estate investment trust.
