First American Financial Corporation Prices Senior Notes Offering

First American Financial Corporation (NYSE: FAF), a leading global provider of title insurance, settlement services and risk solutions for real estate transactions, today announced the pricing of a public offering of $650 million of its 2.40 percent senior notes due 2031. The offering is expected to close on August 3, 2021, subject to customary conditions.

The notes will be general senior unsecured obligations of the company and will rank equally in right of payment with the company’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Interest will be paid semi-annually on February 15 and August 15, beginning February 15, 2022. The company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other possible uses, acquisitions, funding for working capital, the repayment or repurchase of short-term or long-term debt or lease obligations (including the repayment at maturity of the company’s 4.30 percent senior notes due 2023), repurchase of the company’s capital stock and other capital expenditures. The company may also use the net proceeds for temporary investments until it needs them for general corporate purposes.
