Palmer Square Prices First CLO Issued From its Newly-Public BDC (“PSBD”)

Transaction marks the platform’s 71st CLO issuance

Palmer Square Capital Management (together with its affiliates, “Palmer Square”), a credit-focused asset management firm with over $30 billion in assets, has announced the pricing of Palmer Square BDC CLO 1, a $400.5 million collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”). The vehicle is secured by broadly syndicated loans held by Palmer Square Capital BDC Inc. (NYSE: PSBD) and will be managed by Palmer Square Capital BDC Inc. Palmer Square BDC CLO 1 is the first CLO transaction to be issued out of New York Stock Exchange-traded PSBD, which invests meaningfully in broadly syndicated loans as part of its opportunistic credit / total return investment strategy. With the pricing of this CLO, the Palmer Square platform is actively managing 46 CLOs outstanding, totaling over $20 billion in assets (as of 4/8/24).

The deal was arranged by Bank of America and has a 5-year reinvestment period running through July 15, 2029, and a final maturity of July 15, 2037. Palmer Square has issued 71 CLO transactions since inception. Year to date, Palmer Square has issued approximately $3.2 billion in CLOs including 2 new issue CLOs, 3 reset CLOs, and 1 refinanced CLO.

Palmer Square Chairman and CEO Christopher Long said, “On the heels of the successful IPO in January of our business development company, we are excited to announce PSBD’s first CLO transaction. The issuance’s innovative structure, which consists entirely of broadly syndicated loans, demonstrates PSBD’s ability to utilize the CLO market as a way to diversify its financing sources as well as lock-in term rate financing at an attractive cost. With PSBD’s disciplined credit selection and active portfolio management, we believe we are well-positioned to drive continued growth and deliver long-term total return.”
