In January, the company issued $11 billion in long-term bonds to investors at par value. This was the largest debt issuance in the company’s history, and it significantly increased the company’s ratio of total debt to total equity. Five days after the debt issuance, CEG filed legal documents to prepare for an additional $50 billion long-term bond issue. As a result of this filing, the price of the $11 billion in bonds that the company issued earlier in the week dropped to 94 because of the increased risk associated with the company’s debt.
