TMX Group explained in a media statement that the new financing package is expected to receive an “AA (Low)” credit rating with a Stable Trend from DBRS Limited, reflecting the market infrastructure operator’s strong credit profile and established position within Canada’s capital markets.
According to the company, proceeds from the offering will primarily be used to repay a portion of outstanding indebtedness, with any remaining funds directed toward general corporate purposes.
The transaction was arranged through a syndicate of agents led by National Bank of Canada Capital Markets and TD Securities. Additional participants in the syndicate include RBC Capital Markets, BMO Capital Markets, CIBC Capital Markets, Scotiabank, Barclays, Canaccord Genuity, Casgrain & Company Limited, Cedar Leaf Capital Inc., and Citigroup Global Markets Canada Inc.
