KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. (“CorEnergy” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of its previously announced follow-on, underwritten public offering of 2,800,000 depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of its 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at a public offering price of $25.00 per depositary share.

CorEnergy may redeem, at its option, the depositary shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per depositary share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, on or after January 27, 2020. The depositary shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CORRPrA.”
