| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On February 27, 2025, Targa Resources Corp. (the “Company”), along with certain of its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), completed the previously announced underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of (i) $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.550% Senior Notes due 2035 (the “2035 Notes”) and (ii) $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.125% Senior Notes due 2055 (the “2055 Notes,” and, together with the 2035 Notes, the “Notes”).
The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors (the “Guarantees,” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”) so long as such Subsidiary Guarantors satisfy certain conditions. The Securities were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of April 6, 2022 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by that certain Tenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 27, 2025 (the “Tenth Supplemental Indenture,” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).
The Company expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to fund the repurchase from the Company’s joint venture partner of all of the outstanding preferred equity in Targa Badlands LLC, the entity that holds all of the Company’s North Dakota assets, for approximately $1.8 billion in cash (the “Badlands Transaction”). The Company expects the Badlands Transaction to close in the first quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions, with an effective date of January 1, 2025. The Company expects to use the remaining net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including to repay borrowings under its unsecured commercial paper note program (the “Commercial Paper Program”). If the Company does not complete the Badlands Transaction, it expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, including to repay borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program, repay other indebtedness, for capital expenditures, for additions to working capital and for investments in its subsidiaries.
The Offering was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-263730) of the Company (as may be amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”), as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, dated February 24, 2025, relating to the Securities (the “Prospectus Supplement”), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2025. A legal opinion related to the Securities is included as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
The terms of the Securities and the Indenture are further described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement under the captions “Description of Debt Securities” and “Description of the Notes,” respectively. Such descriptions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Base Indenture and the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
The Trustee and certain of its affiliates have from time to time performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, commercial and investment banking services for the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., one of the underwriters, is an affiliate of the Trustee under the Indenture.
