Successful Placement: Singulus Technologies Aktiengesellschaft closes 7.75
% Corporate Bond Offering ahead of schedule - EUR 60 million placed
Kahl am Main, March 12, 2012 - Singulus Technologies Aktiengesellschaft
(SINGULUS) has successfully placed its first corporate bond. Since the
issuance volume of EUR 60 million was fully placed on the initial
subscription day due to strong demand, the subscription period is expected
to close earlier i.e. today at 15:00. Originally, the subscription period
was set from 12 March 12 to 20 March 2012.
The coupon of the notes is 7.75 % with a maturity of five years. Due to the
earlier closing of the subscription book, trading of the notes is expected
to start from 14 March 2012 onwards on the Open Market of Deutsche Börse AG
in the 'Entry Standard for Bonds' segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange
(ISIN: DE000A1MASJ4 / A1MASJ). Issuance and settlement date remains 23
March 2012.
The net proceeds of the bond issue will be used by Singulus Technologies
Aktiengesellschaft towards the financing of major projects in the Solar
Division, for expanding the system partnership with manufacturers of
thin-film solar cells, for developing new products for the Solar Division
and also for developing production systems for next-generation Blu-ray
Discs. SINGULUS also intends to develop new areas of business in the field
of vacuum coating technology through research and development work, as well
as through acquisitions of companies or parts of companies.
Close Brothers Seydler Bank AG, Frankfurt am Main, acted as Sole Global
Coordinator and Bookrunner for the successful transaction.
