ENEL COMPLETES REFINANCING OF HYBRID BONDS

  • With the completion of the non-binding voluntary tender offer launched on September 1st, 2020, Enel will repurchase in cash its hybrid bonds for a total nominal amount of 250 million pounds
  • The transaction is in line with the Group's financial strategy set out in the 2020-2022 Strategic Plan, which envisages the refinancing of 13.8 billion euros of outstanding debt by 2022

Rome, September 8th , 2020 – The non-binding voluntary tender offer ("Tender Offer") launched by Enel S.p.A. ("Enel" or the "Company")1 on September 1st, 2020 to repurchase, and subsequently cancel, its 500 million pounds sterling hybrid bonds due September 2076, with first reset date, which is the first date for the optional redemption, on September 15th, 2021 (ISIN XS1014987355) and 6.625% coupon, was completed.

The transaction allowed for the completion of the refinancing of part of the non-convertible subordinated hybrid bond portfolio, in line with the Group's financial strategy set out in the 2020-2022 Strategic Plan, which envisages the refinancing of 13.8 billion euros of outstanding debt by 2022. The transaction is also in line with Enel's proactive approach to manage maturities and cost of the Group's debt, as part of the overall strategy to optimize financing operations.

As a result of the completion of the Tender Offer, the Company will repurchase in cash the abovementioned hybrid bonds for a total nominal amount of 250 million pounds. The Company has therefore exercised the right provided for by the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer to increase, at its sole discretion, the amount of the bonds to be repurchased, which was originally set at 200 million pounds.

The following table reports (i) the amount accepted for purchase by Enel, (ii) the purchase yield, (iii) the purchase price, (iv) the accrued interests, and (v) the nominal amount of the bonds outstanding after settlement date.
