New Issue: Sacyr prices €250 million five-year convertibles to yield 4%, up 25%

By Caroline Salls and Rebecca Melvin

New York, April 24 - Sacyr SA priced €250 million of five-year convertible and/or exchangeable bonds at par to yield 4% with an initial conversion premium of 25%, according to a news release.

The deal size came at the lower end of a targeted range of €250 million to €300 million and the offering priced at the cheap end of talk, which was for a 3.25% to 4% coupon and a 25% to 30% premium.

Banco Santander SA and Societe Generale were the joint bookrunners for the Regulation S transaction.

The bonds are freely convertible at an initial conversion price of €5.725 per share.

They are non-callable for three years and 21 days and then provisionally callable if the company's stock price exceeds 130% of the conversion price during a specified period.

In addition, the company priced €166 million of new shares, representing 7.2% of its share capital. The price per share was €4.58, which was a 2.9% discount to Wednesday's closing share price.

Sacyr is a Madrid-based construction company.
