Standard Chartered gives final results of tender offer for perpetuals

By Rebecca Melvin

Concord, N.H., Sept. 8 – Standard Chartered plc announced the expiration and final results for its tender offer to repurchase up to $1.25 billion of its $2 billion fixed-rate resetting perpetual subordinated contingent convertible securities (Cusips: 853254BA7, G84228CQ9), according to an announcement Wednesday.

As of 5 p.m. ET on Sept. 7, the company received additional tenders for $5.3 million of the notes, on top of the $995,705,000 tendered prior to the early tender deadline.

The bank accepted all of the notes tendered by the early deadline and will accept all of the notes tendered after the early deadline. The total principal amount accepted was $1,001,005,000.

As previously reported, holders who tendered their securities by the early deadline received an early tender premium of $41 per $1,000 note. Otherwise, securityholders receive par. Interest is being paid to the relevant settlement date in either case.

After the late tender settlement date on Sept. 9, $998,995,000 principal amount will remain outstanding.

The company conducted the tender offer to optimize its capital structure.

The offer was launched with a concurrent offering of new fixed-rate resetting perpetual subordinated contingent convertible securities. The tender offer was contingent on the new offering with funds for the tender coming from the new securities.
