What happened: On March 2, 2026, Leidos Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:LDOS) raised approximately $1.387 billion through an unsecured offering of senior notes maturing in 2029 and 2036. The company aims to use the proceeds to fund its acquisition of L3Harris Technologies' security detection and automation businesses. Separately, on April 6, Skeena Resources Ltd. (SKE, SKE.TO) priced $750 million of 8.5% senior secured notes due 2031.

Market impact: The debt issuances by Leidos and Skeena signal increased capital expenditure in the defense and mining sectors respectively.

For Skeena, it may accelerate project development and exploration activities, driving demand for mining-related services and supplies.
