SAN FRANCISCO-In an update to a previous story, Prologis Inc.'s operating subsidiary Prologis LP has priced an offering of two series of notes with $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount. Included in the aggregate amount are $400 million of notes due Feb. 15, 2019, that have an annual coupon rate of 2.75% and were priced at 99.965% of the principal amount, and $850 million of notes due August 15, 2023, that have an annual coupon rate of 4.25% and were priced at 99.742% of the principal amount.

The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Prologis Inc. The sale of the notes is expected to close on August 15, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions.

The offering has been made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the short term, the Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to repay borrowings under its global line and to fund the cash purchase of certain senior notes (the "tender offer notes") that are tendered pursuant to its offers to purchase such notes, which commenced on Aug. 8, 2013.

The firm's Q2 numbers showed that the 10-quarter plan is ahead of schedule, according to chairman and CEO Hamid Moghadam. According to Q2 results, core funds from operations per fully diluted share was $0.41 for the second quarter compared to $0.43 for the same period in 2012. Net loss per fully diluted share was less than $0.01 for the second quarter compared to a net loss per share of $0.02 for the same period in 2012. The net loss in the quarter was principally due to costs associated with the early extinguishment of debt, as well as from depreciation on real estate.
