ROGERS COMMUNICATIONS INC 6-K filed 2026-09-10

Rogers Communications Inc. filed a Form 6-K with the SEC on 2026-09-10, the report foreign private issuers use to furnish material information released at home. The company is based at 333 Bloor Street East, Toronto, and indicates it files annual reports on Form 40-F rather than Form 20-F. The single exhibit is a news release dated September 9, 2026, and the filing is signed by Chief Financial Officer Glenn Brandt. EDGAR classifies the company under SIC 4841, Cable and Other Pay Television Services, with tickers RCI and RCIAF on NYSE and OTC; the release also lists TSX: RCI.A and RCI.B. The substance is a debt pricing. Rogers priced a U.S. public offering of two series of US dollar subordinated notes totaling US$1 billion, consisting of US$500 million of 7.150% fixed-to-fixed rate subordinated notes due 2057 and US$500 million of 7.400% fixed-to-fixed rate subordinated notes due 2057. Alongside it, the company priced a Canadian private placement of $600 million of 6.000% fixed-to-fixed rate subordinated notes due 2057. Net proceeds are stated as approximately US$990 million and $595 million respectively, and both offerings are expected to close on September 23, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. For an analyst, the use of proceeds is the point. Rogers says it will use the net proceeds from both offerings to redeem or purchase, in full or in part, the 5.00% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes due 2081 and/or the 5.25% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes due 2082. That is a refinancing of existing subordinated debt at stated coupons of 7.150%, 7.400% and 6.000% against outstanding coupons of 5.00% and 5.25%. The two tranches are legally separate. The US Notes are issued under a prospectus supplement and prospectus filed with the SEC as part of an effective shelf registration statement on Form F-10, and are not being offered in Canada or to any Canadian resident. The Cdn Notes are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, were offered exclusively to persons resident in a Canadian province through a syndicate of agents, and will not be sold outside Canada. The amount of the 2081 and 2082 notes to be retired, the call and reset mechanics behind the fixed-to-fixed structure, the underwriters and agents, and any credit ratings are not in the filing.
