AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group N.V. Completes Enlargement and Extension of Credit Facility
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Amsterdam, 20 July 2016 (Regulated Information) --- AMG Advanced Metallurgical
Group N.V. ("AMG", EURONEXT AMSTERDAM: "AMG") is pleased
to announce the successful enlargement and extension of its syndicated credit
facility. The new facility, which was oversubscribed, has been increased from
$320 million to $400 million and the maturity has been extended from May 2018 to
July 2021.
"Our amended credit facility has improved terms and conditions, additional
capacity, and a new five-year maturity," said Jackson Dunckel, AMG's Chief
Financial Officer. "The amended facility provides AMG with a stable capital base
and additional liquidity for strategic growth opportunities. We are grateful to
the entire bank group for their continued support of AMG."
The amended facility maintains an accordion feature that allows the Company,
subject to certain conditions, to increase the commitment amount by up to $100
million. HSBC Bank plc coordinated the financing and, together with Lloyds
Securities Inc., UniCredit Bank AG, and Fifth Third Bank, served as Joint
Bookrunners and Mandated Lead Arrangers. SEB AG and Citibank, N.A. also served
as Mandated Lead Arrangers.
The amendment and extension provides additional flexibility and a long-term
liquidity resource for the AMG group. The expansion of the facility size will
support AMG in funding strategic growth initiatives such as AMG's lithium
project.
