SEEK Limited announces successful refinancing of syndicated loan facility

Highlights:

• New syndicated loan facility (“loan facility”) increased to A$450m from previous A$340m

• Strong demand leading to loan facility being over-subscribed

• New loan facility is multi-currency (AUD & USD) with three & four year tenor

SEEK Limited (“SEEK”) today announced the successful refinancing of its loan facility with an increased limit of A$450m (comprising A$350m and US$100m). SEEK’s syndicate comprises National Australia Bank (Mandated Lead Arranger and Bookrunner), Westpac Banking Corporation, ANZ Banking Group, Commonwealth Bank of Australia and HSBC. SEEK received strong support from the syndicate which resulted in the loan facility being over-subscribed.

Overview of the loan facility

As per the previous loan facility, the structure remains a revolving, unsecured, syndicated senior debt facility. Key features of the loan facility include:

• Tranche A: A$225m (3 year tenor)

• Tranche B & C: A$125m & US$100m (4 year tenor)

• Overall margins and debt covenants remain broadly consistent with the previous facility

About the loan facility

In discussing SEEK’s successful refinancing, John Armstrong, Chief Financial Officer, commented:

“Across the SEEK Group, the FY13 year to date performance has been solid despite subdued economic conditions in most markets. The strength of SEEK’s performance, outlook and overall credit profile has allowed the business to make enhancements to its loan facility. An increase in tenor provides SEEK with greater flexibility in its capital structure. Furthermore, the inclusion of a US dollar tranche provides a natural currency hedge with the earnings and cash distribution profile of SEEK’s offshore businesses.”

“The demand for the loan facility is an endorsement of SEEK’s medium to long term growth profile, cash flow generation as well as strong relationships with each member of the syndicate.”
