BOSTON, Mass.—June 8, 2020—GE (NYSE:GE) announced today that, in response to a reverse inquiry from a long-term strategic investor, it reopened portions of its prior debt offerings for GE Company and GE Capital for $3.0 billion in total proceeds.
GE expects to use these proceeds to reduce shorter-duration debt, including repaying a portion of GE’s intercompany debt obligations to GE Capital and reducing GE Capital’s outstanding debt obligations. The combination of transactions is expected to be leverage neutral over time.
