Why It Matters
This transaction increases NextEra’s consolidated long-term debt with two fixed-rate obligations of different maturities, which will affect the company’s interest expense profile and capital structure. The parent guarantee means NextEra Energy, Inc.’s credit and balance sheet remain directly exposed to these obligations.
