Vedi allegato


Bologna, 28 October 2025 – Further to the release on 27 October, Immobiliare Grande Distribuzione SIIQ S.p.A. ("IGD" or the "Company") announces that it successfully completed earlier today the placement of a non-convertible, senior unsecured green bond with a total nominal amount of 300,000,000.00 euros and 5-year tenor.
The bond, intended for qualified investors, will have an annual coupon of 4.45% with bullet redemption at maturity in November 2030 (subject to early redemption in line with market practice) and will be governed by English law.
The bond (issued at par) will settle on 4 November 2025 and will be listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange's Euro MTF market
It is expected to be rated "BBB-" by Fitch Ratings Ltd. In the event of a downgrade to sub-investment grade or revocation of the rating, a coupon step-up of 1.25% will apply.
An amount equal to the net proceeds from this issuance will be used to refinance green projects in the "Green Buildings" category under the Company's Green Financing Framework, currently financed through bank mortgage borrowings.
The new green bond allows IGD to diversify its funding sources, rebalance its Net Financial Position mix between bank debt and capital markets, further extend its maturity profile, and reduce the average cost of debt, in line with the 2025-2027 Business Plan objectives,
Roberto Zoia, CEO and Managing Director of IGD, declared "I am extremely satisfied with this green bond issue, which reestablishes our presence in the capital markets, with a demand level exceeding 1.35 billion euros at peak, well in excess of the initial size. The success of this transaction confirms IGD's


ability to raise financial resources at competitive costs and diversify its funding sources. We are, therefore, continuing along the path outlined in the 2025-2027 Industrial Plan of extending maturities and reducing the cost of debt. This issuance represents a further step in this direction."
The terms and conditions of the bonds are contained in the Terms&Conditions section of the prospectus, which will be made available on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange's website.
BNP PARIBAS, Goldman Sachs International and Intesa Sanpaolo (IMI CIB Division) acted as Global Coordinators and Joint Lead Managers, while Banca Akros acted as Co-Manager.
