Grammer AG places debenture bond with a total volume of EUR 90 million
New issue replaces debenture bond issued in 2006
High rate of oversubscription underlines the finacial solidity
of Grammer Group
Amberg, May 15, 2013 - Grammer AG has successfully issued a debenture bond
with a total volume of EUR 90 million. The offering was greeted with more
than threefold oversubscription. As a result of the high demand, the
originally planned volume was increased by 20 percent to now EUR 90
million.
The new debenture bond features four separate tranches with maturities of
up to six years and paying either a fixed or a variable rate of interest.
It replaces an existing debenture bond issued in 2006. Among the investors
in the new financing are both domestic and international banks as well as
institutional investors.
The placement of the debenture bond is part of the planned Grammer
long-term financing strategy, which, among other goals, includes an
expansion of the creditor base and further improves the maturity structure.
'The strong demand and high rate of oversubscription of the new debenture
bond underlines the solidity of Grammer Group's financing and
attractiveness of our company within the capital market' , says CFO Volker
Walprecht. 'After last year's prolongation of our global credit facility
and the successful placement of the new debenture bond, we have increased
our financial options significantly. We now have sufficient financial
power for our organic growth targets and for further strategic
investments', explains Hartmut Mueller, CEO of Grammer Group.
