The proceeds were used to fund the payment of wildfire claims above the amount of insurance proceeds and to repay commercial paper borrowings.

In August 2022, Edison International Parent issued $400 million of 4.70% senior notes due in 2025. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.

Senior Secured Recovery Bonds

In the first quarter of 2022, SCE Recovery Funding LLC issued $533 million of Senior Secured Recovery Bonds, Series 2022-A, in three tranches ("Recovery Bonds") and used the proceeds to acquire Recovery Property. The three tranches of Recovery Bonds consisted of $100 million, 1.98% with final maturity in 2030; $305 million, 2.94% with final maturity in 2044; and $128 million, 3.24% with final maturity in 2048. The Recovery Bonds are payable only from and secured by the Recovery Property. SCE Recovery Funding LLC is consolidated by SCE for financial reporting purposes; however, the Recovery Bonds do not constitute a debt or other legal obligation of, or interest in, SCE or any of its affiliates, except for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE used the proceeds it received from the sale of Recovery Property to reimburse itself for previously incurred AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, including the retirement of related debt and financing costs.
