The proceeds are intended for general corporate purposes and, notably, for the repayment of existing debt.

Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., and BNP Paribas Securities Corp. This offering comprises three tranches: $1 billion of 4.200% senior notes due 2030, $2.25 billion of 4.800% senior notes due 2036, and $1.75 billion of 4.900% senior notes due 2038. These notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of Broadcom Inc. and are registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The proceeds from this offering will be used by Broadcom to fund the redemption of approximately $3.64 billion in outstanding senior notes across three series (3.875% due 2027, 4.700% due 2027, and 4.650% due 2027), as announced by its subsidiaries Broadcom Corporation, Broadcom Technologies Inc., CA, Inc., and VMware LLC. This debt issuance and concurrent redemption of older, higher-coupon debt indicates proactive capital management by Broadcom. The company is refinancing existing obligations, likely to lower its overall interest expense and extend its debt maturity profile. Investors should note that while the new notes are senior unsecured obligations of Broadcom Inc., they will be structurally subordinated to the debt of Broadcom's subsidiaries, meaning subsidiary creditors would have a prior claim on subsidiary assets in the event of bankruptcy. The redemption price for the older notes includes a premium above the principal amount plus accrued interest, reflecting the terms of those original indentures.

Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) announced on November 1, 2022, that its Board of Directors has granted significant performance stock unit (PSU) awards to its President and CEO, Hock E. Tan, and President of the Semiconductor Solutions Group, Charlie B. Kawwas. These awards are designed to incentivize long-term growth and substantial shareholder returns, with vesting contingent on both aggressive stock price performance milestones and continued service over a five-year period. This move directly aligns executive compensation with shareholder value creation, particularly with the pending acquisition of VMware, Inc. in focus. The structure of these awards means that significant compensation is "at risk," with payouts only occurring if Broadcom's stock price achieves specific, demanding targets and its stockholders realize considerable value appreciation. The PSU awards for both Mr. Tan and Dr. Kawwas are structured with three distinct stock price hurdles, requiring the average stock price over 20 trading days to reach or exceed $825, $950, and $1,125 respectively, during a defined earning period. These targets represent substantial increases from the grant date closing price. The grants also include provisions for vesting acceleration or pro-rata vesting in specific scenarios such as change in control, termination without cause, retirement, death, or disability, with associated performance metrics like compound annual growth rate (CAGR) applicable in certain cases before the earning period. The estimated grant date fair value for these performance-based awards is substantial, totaling approximately $161 million for Mr. Tan and $48 million for Dr. Kawwas, underscoring the board's confidence in the executives' ability to drive future value.
