Merry Christmas, everybody!

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 6.13%, equivalent to 7.97% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates yielded 4.61% on 2024-12-24. Therefore, the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has widened slightly (and perhaps spuriously) to 335bp from the 330bp reported December 11.

TRP.PR.A / TRP.PR.F: 17% Net Conversion To FixedReset

TC Energy Corporation has announced:

that 42,200 of its 14,577,184 fixed rate Cumulative Redeemable First Preferred Shares, Series 1 (Series 1 Shares) have been elected for conversion on Dec. 31, 2024, on a one-for-one basis, into floating rate Cumulative Redeemable First Preferred Shares, Series 2 (Series 2 Shares); and 3,889,020 of its 7,422,816 Series 2 Shares have been elected for conversion, on a one-for-one basis, into Series 1 Shares.

As a result of the conversions, TC Energy will have 18,424,004 Series 1 Shares and 3,575,996 Series 2 Shares issued and outstanding. The Series 1 Shares and Series 2 Shares will continue to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) under the symbols TRP.PR.A and TRP.PR.F, respectively.

The Series 1 Shares will pay on a quarterly basis for the five-year period beginning on Dec. 31, 2024, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of TC Energy, a fixed dividend at an annualized rate of 4.939 per cent.

The Series 2 Shares will pay a floating rate quarterly dividend for the five-year period beginning on Dec. 31, 2024, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of TC Energy. The dividend rate for the Series 2 Shares for the first quarterly floating rate period commencing Dec. 31, 2024 to but excluding Mar. 31, 2025 is 5.401 per cent and will be reset every quarter.

Holders of Series 1 Shares and Series 2 Shares will have the opportunity to convert their shares again on Dec. 31, 2029 and in every fifth year thereafter as long as the shares remain outstanding. For more information on the terms of, and risks associated with an investment in the Series 1 Shares and the Series 2 Shares, please see the prospectus supplement dated Sept. 22, 2009 which is available on sedarplus.ca or on our website.

So this was a net conversion of 17% from TRP.PR.F to TRP.PR.A. The pair is now 84% FixedReset, TRP.PR.A.

TRP.PR.A commenced trading 2009-9-30 after being announced 2009-9-22. It commenced life as a FixedReset, 4.60%+192, that reset to 3.266% effective 2014-12-31. Assiduous Readers may recall that I have blamed the 2014 reset of TRP.PR.A for what we might now call ‘the first half’ of the current bear market. I recommended conversion to TRP.PR.F in 2014 and there was a conversion rate of about 62%. The company announced the extension to 2024 on 2019-11-21. TRP.PR.A reset at 3.479% effective 2019-12-31. I recommended holding, or converting to, TRP.PR.A and there was a 23% net conversion to that issue. TRP.PR.A reset to 4.939% in 2024.

TRP.PR.F commenced trading 2014-12-31 after a partial conversion from TRP.PR.A.

Thanks to Assiduous Reader niagara for bringing this to my attention!

TD.PF.C To Be Redeemed

The Toronto-Dominion Bank has announced:

that it will exercise its right to redeem all of its 20,000,000 outstanding Non-Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset Class A First Preferred Shares, Series 5 (Non-Viability Contingent Capital) (the “Series 5 Shares”) on January 31, 2025 at the price of $25.00 per Series 5 Share for an aggregate total of approximately $500 million. The redemption has been approved by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions.

On December 5, 2024, TD announced that dividends of $0.24225 per Series 5 Share had been declared. These will be the final dividends on the Series 5 Shares, and will be paid in the usual manner on January 31, 2025 to shareholders of record on January 10, 2025, as previously announced. After January 31, 2025, the Series 5 Shares will cease to be entitled to dividends and the only remaining rights of holders of such shares will be to receive payment of the redemption amount.

Beneficial holders who are not directly the registered holder of Series 5 Shares should contact the financial institution, broker or other intermediary through which they hold these shares to confirm how they will receive their redemption proceeds. Inquiries should be directed to our Registrar and Transfer Agent, TSX Trust Company, at 1-800-387-0825 (or in Toronto 416-682-3860).

TD.PF.C is a FixedReset, 3.75%+225, that commenced trading 2014-12-16 after being announced 2014-12-5. Notice of extension was reported in December, 2019. TD.PF.C will reset at 3.876% effective January 31, 2020. I recommended against conversion and there was no conversion. TD.PF.C is tracked by HIMIPref™ and is assigned to the FixedReset-Discount subindex.

Market Action

December 19, 2024

Whoosh! Bonds got hammered today:

Economic data Thursday was in sync with the Fed’s view, with weekly initial jobless claims falling more than expected while gross domestic product for the third quarter was revised to show a 3.1% increase from the previously reported 2.8% pace.

Traders now see just one quarter-point rate reduction by mid-2025, and see less than two cuts in total by the end of the year, compared with last week’s expectations of three rate cuts.

Longer-dated Treasury yields were higher after the economic data, with the benchmark U.S. 10-year note reaching a near 7-month high of 4.594%. Canadian bond yields also moved higher across a steeper curve. The 10-year by late day was up 15 basis points at 3.373%, its highest since late November.

Issue Comments

BCE.PR.F To Reset at 170% of GOC-5; Interconvertible with BCE.PR.E

BCE Inc. published their conversion notice for BCE.PR.F on 2024-12-16:

As of February 1, 2025, the Series AF Preferred Shares will, should they remain outstanding, pay, on a quarterly basis, as and when declared by the Board of Directors of BCE Inc., a fixed cash dividend for the following five years that will be based on a fixed rate equal to the product of: (a) the yield to maturity compounded semiannually (the “Government of Canada Yield”), computed on January 13, 2025 by two registered Canadian investment dealers appointed by BCE Inc., that would be carried by a non-callable Government of Canada bond with a 5-year maturity, multiplied by (b) the “Selected Percentage Rate”. The “Selected Percentage Rate” determined by BCE Inc. is 170%. The annual dividend rate applicable to the Series AF Preferred Shares will be published on January 16, 2025 in the national edition of The Globe and Mail, the Montreal Gazette and Le Devoir and will be posted on the BCE Inc. website at www.bce.ca.

There is a similar conversion notice for BCE.PR.E.

The Five-Year Canada rate is now 3.15%, if that is the case on the determination date of 2025-1-13, the dividend rate of BCE.PR.F will be 5.355%, or $1.33875 p.a.

BCE.PR.F is a FixedFloater which was added to the HIMIPref™ database in December 2008, when it was paying 4.40%. It reset in 2010 to 4.541% and after a net conversion to BCE.PR.F the issue pair was about 90% FixedFloater. It reset in 2015 to 3.110% and after a massive conversion the issue pair was about 60% RatchetRate. In 2020 the issue reset to 3.865% (which was 239% of the GOC-5 rate) and there was a net 17% conversion to FixedFloaters, which thus comprised about 59% of the combined issue size.

BCE.PR.E is a RatchetRate preferred, interconvertible every five years with BCE.PR.F. It was added to the HIMIPref™ database in May, 2012.
