Vedior completes Private Debt Placement
Vedior is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed the private debt placement of US$215 million (€170 million) with US institutional investors. The debt is comprised of senior notes split into two equal amounts with 7 and 10 year maturity dates.
The Company has swapped US$65 million of the sum raised into Euro and US$75 million into pounds sterling. The Euro denominated debt is at floating interest rates while the US dollar and pound sterling denominated debt is at fixed interest rates.
Zach Miles, CEO of Vedior, said,
“I am pleased that, through this private placement, we have been able to extend the maturity and diversity of Vedior’s sources of debt finance and that demand for the placement was oversubscribed. We believe that, with these additional facilities, the Group’s financing sources are adequate for the foreseeable future.”
