PG&E’s $8.72 Billion Tri‑Tranche Equity Offering
Cravath represented PG&E Corporation (“PG&E”) in connection with its $4.02 billion registered offering of common stock, $3.25 billion private placement of common stock and $1.45 billion registered offering of equity units. This tri‑tranche offering represents the largest utility equity offering in history. Cravath also represented PG&E in connection with the private placement of $523 million of forward stock purchase contracts, an innovative structure that served to backstop the underwriters’ greenshoe options in the public offerings. The combined proceeds of these offerings were used by PG&E to effectuate its emergence from chapter 11 proceedings. PG&E, through its subsidiary, Pacific Gas and Electric Company, engages in the sale and delivery of electricity and natural gas to over 16 million customers in northern and central California. The transactions closed on July 1, 2020.
