NEW YORK, September 22, 2014 – Thomson Reuters (TSX / NYSE: TRI) today announced the pricing of its offering of US$1 billion of debt securities, which consists of US$550 million principal amount of 1.65% notes due 2017, and US$450 million principal amount of 3.85% notes due 2024. The offering is expected to close on September 29, 2014, subject to customary closing conditions.
