During March 2022, we used a portion of the net proceeds to pay down our revolving credit facilities. During the second quarter of 2022, we redeemed all $1.250 billion outstanding aggregate principal amount of our 4.75% senior secured notes due 2023 and all $1.250 billion outstanding aggregate principal amount of our 5.875% senior notes due 2023. The pretax loss on retirement of debt for these two redemptions was $78 million. During May 2022, Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("S&P") announced it had issued an investment grade rating with respect to the issuer credit rating of HCA Healthcare, Inc. and its subsidiaries. S&P's announcement, in conjunction with the Moody's Investors Service, Inc. upgrade in 2021, permitted the permanent release of the subsidiary guarantees and all collateral securing our senior secured notes. As a result of these releases, the senior secured notes are now classified as senior unsecured notes. The subsidiary guarantees and collateral securing our senior secured credit facilities are not affected.
