Verizon Communications Inc. on Monday announced the pricing of $8.2 billion in debt that comes due between 2016 and 2018.
Last week, the telecommunications giant offered to buy back the older bonds as part of a refinancing plan at above-market rates.
The company at that time was shopping $4.5 billion in debt to investors in its largest U.S. sale since its mammoth $49 billion deal in September.
That deal, the largest corporate bond sale on record, helped finance the $130 billion acquisition of Vodafone Group PLC's stake in Verizon Wireless. In February, Verizon sold roughly $5.4 billion worth of debt denominated in euros and sterling, also to help finance the acquisition.
In January, Verizon sold $500 million in bonds in the U.S., in a deal geared toward individual investors. The latest sale was directed at institutional investors, such as pension funds, insurance companies and mutual funds.
The Verizon sale comes after investment-grade companies sold roughly $48 billion in debt earlier this month.
