Hut 8 Corp. closed a $4.25 billion offering of 6.129% senior secured notes due 2042 to finance the Beacon Point data center project in Nueces County, Texas. The notes are rated Baa2 by Moody's Ratings, one notch above the BBB− assigned to Hut 8's River Bend financing in April 2026. The offering was substantially oversubscribed, broadening Hut 8's institutional credit investor base and bringing cumulative project-level, investment-grade data center construction financing to $7.5 billion.
The issuer, Beacon Point DC LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hut 8, intends to use the proceeds to finance the development and construction of a turnkey data center with six data halls totaling 352 megawatts of critical IT capacity. The facility will be leased to a tenant rated AA− or higher as of the closing date. Additional proceeds will fund debt service reserves and pay offering-related fees and expenses.
Offering Highlights
The offering marks the second execution of a financing model that is non-recourse to Hut 8, fully funded at the project level, and non-dilutive to existing shareholders. The fully amortizing structure eliminates refinancing risk at the project level, while the non-recourse profile allows Hut 8 to maintain zero recourse debt at the parent level.
Priced at T+165 basis points, the notes priced 20 basis points inside the River Bend notes issuance spread. The terms establish the offering as the largest, tightest-priced, and highest-rated investment-grade bond issued to date in a single-sponsor data center construction financing.
