PASADENA, Calif., Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced the closing of its amended and restated $5.0 billion unsecured senior line of credit, a strategic extension that further strengthens the company's long-term financial flexibility and reflects the enduring support of its longstanding, trusted banking partners. The amendment extends the maturity of the facility to January 2032 and reduces the applicable borrowing margin, reinforcing Alexandria's disciplined and proactive management of its strong and flexible balance sheet. The amended agreement became effective on September 24, 2026.
The amended agreement extends the maturity date of Alexandria's $5.0 billion unsecured senior line of credit from January 22, 2030 to January 22, 2032, assuming the company exercises its rights to extend the maturity date twice by an additional six months for each exercise, subject to certain conditions. The extension preserves Alexandria's substantial revolving credit capacity and advances the company's longstanding financial strategy to maintain significant liquidity, prudently ladder debt maturities, and preserves access to diverse sources of capital, providing critical financial capacity to execute across market cycles. The amended agreement also reduces the applicable borrowing rate to SOFR plus 0.725%, representing an 11-basis-point reduction from the currently applicable rate of SOFR plus 0.835%. "The successful extension of our $5.0 billion unsecured senior line of credit underscores the strength of our mission-critical relationships with our banking partners and their continued confidence in and longstanding support of Alexandria," said Marc E. Binda, chief financial officer and treasurer of Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. "Extending the maturity to 2032 while reducing our borrowing margin represents another consequential execution by our best-in-class team to further strengthen our balance sheet, prudently manage our long-term cost of capital, and maintain significant liquidity and financial flexibility. These enduring financial strengths position Alexandria to execute our highly differentiated, mission-driven business model with discipline and conviction, and capitalize on strategic opportunities through evolving market cycles."
