Summary

Universal Health Services completed a public offering of $1.1 billion in senior secured notes — $600 million of 5.500% notes due 2031 and $500 million of 6.000% notes due 2036 — guaranteed on a senior secured basis by its subsidiary guarantors and secured by first-priority liens on certain assets. The notes, issued under an indenture with U.S. Bank Trust Company as trustee and JPMorgan Chase Bank as collateral agent, carry investment-grade ratings from Moody's and S&P, and rank equally with the company's senior secured credit facility and existing senior secured notes.

Key points

  • The 2031 notes bear 5.500% interest and mature September 1, 2031; the 2036 notes bear 6.000% and mature September 1, 2036, with interest payable semi-annually from March 1, 2027.
  • The notes and subsidiary guarantees are secured by first-priority liens on certain assets of the issuer and the secured guarantors, excluding real property and certain other assets.
  • The guarantees and collateral liens can be released without noteholder consent if the notes have investment grade ratings, no default is continuing, and liens securing other first-lien and junior-lien obligations have been released.
  • Upon certain changes of control occurring after the notes cease to have investment grade ratings, holders may require repurchase at 101% of principal plus accrued interest.
