WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 01, 2017 -- WSFS Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:WSFS), the parent company of WSFS Bank, today announced that it has called $55.0 million of senior debt with a coupon rate of 6.25%. The debt was repaid using a portion of the proceeds from the June 2016 public offering of $100 million of 4.50% fixed-to-floating rate senior notes due 2026.
“We are pleased to announce the execution of our planned payoff of senior debt,” said Dominic C. Canuso, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Lowering our overall senior debt costs will result in improved Net Interest Margin and gives us more confidence that we are on a solid path to achieve our Strategic Plan return on asset goal of 1.30% by Q4 2018 (core and sustainable).”
As part of the transaction, WSFS will take a $700,000 non-cash write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs in Q3 2017.
