• A reaffirmation from the financial partners of their long-term confidence and their commitment to supporting Compagnie Chargeurs Invest in the rollout of its new sustainable value creation strategy

Michaël Fribourg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Compagnie Chargeurs Invest, stated: " After a 2024 financial year marked by strong cash generation and very solid performance from its asset portfolio, Compagnie Chargeurs Invest continues to implement next-generation financing aligned with its new strategic chapter. The strong demand for the Group's signature reflects the long-term attractivity of our business model and the financial strength of the Compagnie, which owns high-quality assets with significant financial and intrinsic value. Supported by its controlling shareholder, the Fribourg Family Group, and its top-tier partners, Compagnie Chargeurs Invest intends to pursue a dynamic management strategy for its asset portfolio in the coming years. More than ever, we are in a position to globally enhance the competitive advantages of our high-growth global champions."

New financing for a total amount of €108 million

The Group raised, from leading financial partners, variable-rate new financing for a total amount of €108 million consisting of a syndicated loan and bilateral credit facilities.

The new syndicated loan was signed with Groupe BPCE (Caisse d'Epargne Ile-de-France, Natixis, Banque Palatine), HSBC Continental Europe, La Banque Postale, and AG2R La Mondiale. Like all previous financings, this bank loan benefits from long maturity — from the end of 2029 to the end of 2030 — and flexible documentation. It does not include any leverage covenant and is subject to a gearing ratio of ≤ 1.2x, all with a competitive margin structure. The loan is also sustainability-linked, based on annual targets that will be defined with the financial partners in the coming months, underscoring Compagnie Chargeurs Invest's strong and continuous commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

Additionally, new bilateral revolving credit facilities were arranged with Arkéa Banque and Bpifrance.

These financial institutions have thus reaffirmed their commitment to supporting Compagnie Chargeurs Invest in the deployment of its new strategic trajectory. With their support, the Group will be able to focus its resources on accelerating the creation of sustainable value.
