By Marisa Wong
Los Angeles, Aug. 22 – NKT A/S announced it is offering to purchase for cash up to a maximum amount of its outstanding €150 million 5.375% callable subordinated capital securities due 3018 (ISIN: DK003042766) issued in 2018, according to a Monday press release.
NKT is offering to purchase the hybrid securities at 100.16. The company will also pay accrued interest.
The company also announced on Monday its intention to issue new euro-denominated green hybrid securities with an expected minimum issue size of €100 million, subject to market conditions.
The amount of tendered 3018 securities to be accepted will be capped at the total amount of the new securities.
If the tender amount exceeds the offer cap, the issuer will accept the tendered securities on a pro rata basis.
Holders of the existing securities who participate in the tender offer will be eligible to receive priority in allocation of the new securities.
The expiration of the tender offer will coincide with the close of book-building for the new securities, which is expected to be Aug. 25 at the earliest. The tender offer and new issuance are also expected to settle on the same date.
The company will redeem on Sept. 12 any of the outstanding securities that are not tendered under the tender offer. The issuer had exercised the securities’ early redemption option on Aug. 11, as previously reported.
Danske Bank A/S (+45 3364 8851, liabilitymanagement@danskebank.dk), Nordea Bank Abp (+45 6161 2996, NordeaLiabilityManagement@nordea.com) and Nykredit Bank (+45 2530 7720, liabilitymanagement@nykredit.dk) are dealer managers and tender agents for the tender offer.
