|
EQS-Ad-hoc: Lenzing AG / Key word(s): Financing Intended exchange offer for EUR 500 million undated subordinated resettable fixed rate notes with the ISIN XS2250987356 (Hybrid Bond 2020), including the issue of new Euro-denominated undated subordinated resettable fixed rate notes (Hybrid Bond 2025) Lenzing – Lenzing Aktiengesellschaft (“Lenzing AG”) intends to announce an exclusive offer to qualifying holders of the EUR 500 million undated subordinated resettable fixed rate notes with the ISIN XS2250987356 issued on December 7, 2020 (“Existing Notes”) to exchange the Existing Notes at a ratio of 90 percent x aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes for new Euro-denominated undated subordinated resettable fixed rate notes (“Exchange Notes”) and a cash consideration in the amount equal to 10 percent x aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes (“Cash Consideration”) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain minimum condition (“Exchange Offer”). The maximum total aggregate amount of the Cash Consideration is limited to EUR 50 million. The exchange period is expected to run from on or about June 16, 2025 to on or about July 2, 2025. The intended Exchange Offer will not constitute a redemption pursuant to § 6(3)(a) or (b) of the terms and conditions of the Existing Notes. With this transaction, Lenzing AG intends to optimize its debt profile and improve its financing cost. Concurrently with the intended Exchange Offer, Lenzing AG intends to issue new euro-denominated undated subordinated resettable fixed rate notes (the “New Money Notes” and, together with the Exchange Notes, the “New Notes”) in an intended separate offering for cash consideration. The terms of the Hybrid Bond 2025 will be based on the terms of the Hybrid Bond 2020: it represents subordinated capital with a fixed interest rate, one-sided termination rights by Lenzing AG and an unlimited term. The Hybrid Bond 2025 will therefore be classified as equity under IFRS. The Hybrid Bond 2025 will rank senior to the Hybrid Bond 2020.
