Peet announces capital management initiatives
Peet Limited (“ Peet ”) today announced the launch of new unsecured debt securities called Series 1, Tranche 1 Peet Bonds (the “ Peet Bonds ”) (“ Offer ”) and an extension of its senior syndicated debt facility to October 2019.
Peet is seeking to raise approximately $75 million under the Offer, by issuing 750,000 Bonds with a Face Value of $100 per Peet Bond, with the ability to raise greater or less than that amount, subject to a minimum issue amount of $50 million. Funds raised under the Offer will be used by Peet for refinancing the Peet Convertible Notes issued in 2011 (“ Peet Convertible Notes ”) and to diversify Peet’s debt capital structure to further strengthen the Peet Group’s balance sheet and to further support its growth objectives.
Application has been made for the Peet Bonds to be quoted on the ASX under the code “PPCHA”.
The sole lead Arranger and Lead Manager to the Offer is National Australia Bank.
The Offer comprises:
- Peet Offer – to Eligible Shareholders, Eligible Employees and Eligible Directors;
-
Broker Firm Offer – to Australian resident retail clients of a Syndicate Broker invited to participate through the Broker Firm Offer;
-
Institutional Offer – to Institutional Investors who were invited by the Lead Manager to bid for the Peet Bonds; and
-
Reinvestment Offer – to Eligible Peet Convertible Notes holders,
(together, the “ Eligible Participants ”).
No general public offer of Peet Bonds will be made.
Under the Reinvestment Offer:
-
Eligible Peet Convertible Notes holders have the opportunity to subscribe for Peet Bonds by selling to Peet some or all of their Peet Convertible Bonds;
-
Eligible Peet Convertible Notes holders who elect to participate in the Reinvestment Offer will sell their Peet Convertible Notes to Peet for $100 plus interest for the period from (and including) 16 December 2015 up to (but excluding) the Issue Date per Peet Convertible Note sold to Peet; and
-
the proceeds of the sale of the Peet Convertible Notes will fund the subscription for Peet Bonds and the accrued interest amount will be paid to the Eligible Peet Convertible Notes holder.
Peet Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr Brendan Gore, said the Offer represented an opportunity for Peet to take advantage of demand from capital markets to diversify its debt capital structure.
“This facility enables both institutional and retail investors, including the Company’s shareholders, to participate in the Offer and assists Peet to diversify its corporate debt structure and increase the average maturity date of its borrowings.
