New Issue: International Personal Finance sells €12 million add-on to 5¾% notes due 2021

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 22 – Emerging markets-focused International Personal Finance plc priced another €12 million of 5¾% notes due 2021 (//BB) at a price of 93.5 to yield 8.06%.

The issue price also included plus 259 days’ accrued interest to Dec. 22, according to a term sheet.

The notes will be consolidated and form a single series with the €300 million of notes issued on April 7, 2014 and the €100 million add-on tranche issued on April 23, 2015.

As reported the company priced €300 million of the senior notes (//BB+) at par to yield 5¾% on April 1, 2014, at the tight end of revised yield talk in the 5 7/8% area. Earlier guidance was in the 6% area.

Joint bookrunner HSBC was the bill and deliver. Citigroup was also a joint bookrunner.

The Leeds, England-based home credit company planned to use the proceeds of the original issue to fund the tender offer for its 11½% guaranteed notes due 2015.

International Personal Finance operates using the Provident brand in Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Mexico, Romania, Lithuania and Bulgaria.
