Realty Income Corporation (Realty Income, NYSE: O ), The Monthly Dividend Company ® , today announced the closing of its previously announced private offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.750% convertible senior notes due 2031 (the "notes") in a private offering (the "offering") to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The offering represents the aggregate of both the previously announced offering of $875.0 million, as well as the full exercise of the $125.0 million option to purchase additional notes granted by Realty Income to the initial purchasers of the notes. In connection with the pricing of the notes and the exercise by the initial purchasers of their option to purchase additional notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain financial institutions. The cap price of the capped call transactions was initially approximately $83.55 per share of Realty Income's common stock, which represented a premium of approximately 35.0% above the closing price of Realty Income's common stock of $61.89 per share on the New York Stock Exchange on August 11, 2026. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $981.9 million, after deducting the initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and Realty Income's estimated offering expenses. Realty Income used approximately $33.2 million of the net proceeds from the offering to pay the cost of the capped call transactions described above. Realty Income used approximately $188.7 million of the net proceeds from the offering to repurchase approximately 3.0 million shares of its common stock concurrently with the pricing of the offering in privately negotiated transactions effected through one of the initial purchasers of the notes or its affiliate, as Realty Income's agent. Realty Income intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, the repayment or repurchase of certain indebtedness (including borrowings under Realty Income's revolving credit facilities and commercial paper programs), foreign currency swaps or other hedging instruments, the development, redevelopment and acquisition of additional properties, acquisition or business combination transactions, and the expansion and improvement of certain properties in Realty Income's portfolio.
