Nabaltec places loan against borrower's note of EUR 90.0 million
Schwandorf, 15 February 2022 - Nabaltec AG has successfully issued a loan against borrower's note with a volume of EUR 90.0 million and a value date of April 2022. The proceeds from the issue will be used to refinance existing loans against borrower's notes in the amount of EUR 39.0 million and a bilateral bank loan in the amount of EUR 20.0 million, due in April 2022. In addition, the funds will be used to finance further growth projects, in particular to expand capacity in the boehmite product range for lithium ion batteries.
The volume is divided into fixed and variable tranches with maturities of five and seven years.
The loan against borrower's note was placed without broad marketing as part of a private placement with the participation of five investors.
"We are pleased with the great interest and strong demand from existing banking partners and see this as a vote of confidence in the company," said Günther Spitzer, CFO of Nabaltec AG. "The long-term financing secures future growth projects and also optimizes our financing costs."
The transaction was accompanied by DZ BANK AG, Frankfurt am Main.
