Date of Report: January 31, 2025
Event: Redemption of outstanding senior notes.
Key Financial Metrics
This filing does not report revenue, profit, cash flow, or margin data. The primary financial metric disclosed is the debt instrument being redeemed:
- Debt Instrument: 5.250% Senior Notes due June 2025 ("2025 Notes")
- Aggregate Principal Amount: $850.0 million
- Redemption Price: 100% of principal plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
Material Changes
The Issuers (GLP Capital, L.P. and GLP Financing II, Inc.) elected to call for the full redemption of the $850.0 million 2025 Notes. This action reduces the company's outstanding debt load prior to the notes' original maturity in June 2025.

Investor Verification Checklist

- Verify the calculation of accrued interest payable up to, but not including, March 3, 2025.
- Review subsequent filings for details on the funding source used for this redemption (e.g., cash on hand, new debt issuance, or asset sale).
- Check for any prepayment penalties or make-whole provisions that may have been triggered, though the filing states the price is 100% of principal plus accrued interest.
