PRESS RELEASE
Paris, 31 May 2016
ICADE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES A NEW BOND ISSUE IN THE EURO MARKET
Icade has today issued a 750 million euro bond with a maturity of 10 years and an annual coupon of 1.75%. These funds have been raised with a 123-bp spread over the reference rate.
Investors showed a strong interest in this significant issue, once again confirming their confidence in Icade's credit quality and strategy.
The proceeds from this issue will be used for general corporate purposes including, among others, the repayment, in whole or in part, of syndicated or bilateral loans. This transaction will result in a significant extension in the average debt maturity and an improvement in the average cost of debt.
Icade is ready to seize any opportunities that arise in today's favourable market conditions in order to obtain financing at attractive terms.
S&P affirmed Icade's BBB+ rating with a stable outlook in November 2015.
Crédit Agricole CIB, HSBC, Natixis and Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking were joint book runners on the deal.
