BASIC-FIT SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES INAUGURAL SCHULDSCHEIN TRANSACTION
Issuance broadens Basic-Fit's access to capital and lowers its cost of capital
Hoofddorp, 7 October 2019 - Basic-Fit successfully completed its first Schuldschein issuance with a German Private Placement. The total volume is EUR 100 million in Euro-denominated tranches with maturities of 3 and 5 years, and an average weighted margin of 1.47%.
With this transaction, Basic-Fit was able to diversify its sources of financing and include an international investor base, notably German, Benelux, French and Spanish investors.
Basic-Fit will use the proceeds of the Schuldschein to finance the accelerated execution of its growth plans as announced in March 2019.
The placement was offered exclusively through a digital platform and was jointly arranged by ING Bank, a branch of ING-DiBa AG (ING) and Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A. (Rabo) in cooperation with Raiffeisen Bank International AG (RBI).
