VICI Properties Inc. and its operating partnership, VICI Properties L.P., entered into an underwriting agreement on August 5, 2026 with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Mizuho Securities USA LLC and Truist Securities, Inc., as representatives of the underwriters, under which VICI LP agreed to issue and sell $900 milliona of 5.400% Senior Notes due 2031 and $850 million of 5.750% Senior Notes due 2036.
The 2031 Notes are being issued at 99.966% of par and the 2036 Notes at 98.375% of par. VICI LP estimates net proceeds of approximately $1,720.0 millionb after underwriting discounts and offering expenses, with closing expected on August 14, 2026, subject to customary conditions. VICI LP intends to use the net proceeds to repay all or a portion of three existing note series: $480.5 million of 4.500% senior notes due 2026 (September 2026 Maturity Notes), $19.5 million of 4.500% senior notes due 2026 (2026 MGP Notes), and $1.25 billion of 4.250% senior notes due 2026 (December 2026 Maturity Notes).
Any remaining proceeds may be used for general corporate purposes, including property acquisitions and improvements, capital expenditures, working capital, and repayment or refinancing of indebtedness. Because some underwriters or their affiliates may hold the notes being repaid, they may receive a portion of the proceeds; if more than 5%c of net proceeds go to any single underwriter or affiliate, the offering will follow FINRA Rule 5121. The offering was made under an automatic shelf registration statement filed April 30, 2025 (File No. 333-286854-01), with a prospectus supplement dated August 5, 2026.
