TORONTO, Sept. 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Partners Value Split Corp. (the "Company”) announced today the completion of its previously announced offering of Class AA Preferred Shares, Series 14 (the "Series 14 Preferred Shares”). A total of 6,000,000 Series 14 Preferred Shares were issued at an offering price of $25.00 per Series 14 Preferred Share, raising gross proceeds of $150,000,000. The issuance included 1,000,000 Series 14 Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the exercise, in full, of the underwriters' option granted by the Company to the underwriters in the offering. The Series 14 Preferred Shares carry quarterly fixed cumulative preferential dividends representing a 5.50% annualized yield on the offering price and have a final maturity of June 30, 2030. The Series 14 Preferred Shares have been listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol PVS.PR.L.

The net proceeds of the offering will be used by the Company in connection with the Company's redemption of its outstanding Class AA Preferred Shares, Series 8 and to pay a special dividend on the Company's capital shares.

Prior to the closing of the offering, the Company subdivided the existing capital shares held by Partners Value Investments Inc. so that there are an equal number of preferred shares and capital shares outstanding.

The Company owns a portfolio consisting of approximately 120 million Class A Limited Voting Shares of Brookfield Corporation and approximately 30 million Class A Limited Voting Shares of Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (collectively, the "Brookfield Securities”), which are expected to yield quarterly dividends that are sufficient to fund quarterly fixed cumulative preferential dividends for the holders of the Company's preferred shares and to enable the holders of the Company's capital shares to participate in any capital appreciation of the Brookfield Securities.
