Lumen Technologies dropped roughly 13% Thursday after Level 3 Financing, its subsidiary, set the price on $1 billion in 7.5% senior notes maturing in 2037. The debt sale brought renewed attention to Lumen’s balance sheet as it dives further into cloud and AI networking. Senior notes, by definition, take priority over certain other claims in repayment order.
