SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sunrun (Nasdaq: RUN), America’s largest provider of home battery storage, solar, and home-to-grid power plants, today announced it has priced a securitization of leases and power purchase agreements. The securitization is Sunrun’s seventeenth securitization since 2015 and second issuance in 2026.
“This $267 million public securitization involves refinancing a seasoned portfolio of residential solar assets. We appreciate our financial partners’ continued confidence in our high quality assets and servicing standards,” said Danny Abajian, Sunrun’s Chief Financial Officer. “This securitization was raised with Class A notes being priced at a 200 basis point credit spread, a 20 basis point improvement from the public Class A-1 Notes in Sunrun’s April 2026 securitization.”
The securitization was structured with one class of A- rated notes (the “Class A Notes”) and one class of BB- rated notes (the “Class B Notes”). The Class B Notes were retained by Sunrun. The $267 million Class A Notes were marketed in a public asset backed securitization. The Class A Notes were priced with a coupon of 6.28%. The pricing of the Class A Notes reflects a spread of 200 basis points and a 6.33% yield. The initial balance of the Class A Notes represents a 74.2% advance rate on ADSAB (present value using a 7.5% discount rate). The Class A Notes have an expected weighted average life of 4.94 years, an Optional Redemption Date of July 30, 2035, and a final maturity date of January 30, 2054.
The notes are backed by a diversified portfolio of 37,595 systems distributed across 42 utility service territories in 13 states. The weighted average customer FICO is 756. The transaction is expected to close by the end of August.
BofA Securities was the sole structuring agent and served as joint bookrunner with Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, and RBC Capital Markets. KeyBanc Capital Markets and First Citizens Capital Securities served as co-managers for the securitization.
