Item 8.01 Other Events.
On September 8, 2025, Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (“HEI”) and Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc. (“HECO”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of HEI, announced commencement of a series of fixed income investor calls. Subject to market conditions, a $400 million 8-year senior unsecured notes private offering pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Regulation S by HECO may follow. The net proceeds of any such potential offering would be intended to support HECO’s financing of capital expenditures, repaying long-term debt and/or short-term debt, including its revolving credit facility and term loan, used to finance or refinance capital expenditures and/or reimburse funds used for the payment of capital expenditures.
This report does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any notes or any other security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which, or to any persons to whom, such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
If an offering were to occur, any notes would be offered and sold by means of a preliminary offering memorandum related to such offering to persons reasonably believed to be a qualified institutional buyer in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain non-United States persons in offshore transactions in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The notes would not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and would not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration under, or an applicable exemption from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements that relate to future events and expectations, including those relating to whether any potential offering proceeds or closes and the use of proceeds from any potential offering, and as such constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include those containing such words as “aim,” “ambition,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “develop,” “endeavors,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “intends,” “may,” “outlook,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “reach,” “seeks,” “sees,” “should,” “targets,” “will,” “working,” “would,” or other words of similar meaning. All statements by HEI and HECO (collectively, the “Registrants”) that reflect expectations, assumptions or projections about the future, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Although the Registrants believe that the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, they can give no assurance that these expectations will be attained, and it is possible that actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties. Additional information concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements is contained in the Registrant’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Registrants disclaim any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether in response to new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
