CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust Inc. (NYSE: CORR) opened a public offering of depositary shares, the company said Jan. 22.

Each share represents 1% of a share of CorEnergy’s new Series A cumulative redeemable preferred stock, which will pay quarterly dividends at an annual rate to be set at the pricing of the offering.

Underwriters were granted a monthlong option to purchase additional depositary shares.

Kansas City, Mo.-based CorEnergy will file to list the shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker “CORRPrA,” the company said, noting that if approved, trading should occur a month after the offering closes.

Net proceeds will repay revolving credit debts and support general corporate purposes.

Wells Fargo Securities LLC, BofA Merrill Lynch, and Stifel are joint book-running managers.
