Update on Proposed Offering of Eur 300 million Bond & Refinancing

Synthomer plc ('Synthomer' or 'the Group') today announces that, despite a strong response from investors to its proposed EUR300 million unsecured senior notes offering (the "Notes"), the Group has decided not to complete the transaction due to unfavourable market terms and conditions.  The Group will continue to evaluate a number of alternative refinancing options ahead of its current facilities maturing in 2019 to ensure that it is well positioned to deliver on its strategy of building sustainable growth.
