Ignitis Grupė plans a new issue of bonds
Today the Board of Ignitis
Group approved the update of the Company’s Euro Medium Term Note programme with
headline amount of up to EUR 1.5 bn and the Base Prospectus. A EUR-denominated 300
mln 10 year senior unsecured bond offering will follow, subject to market
conditions.
“The energy of the
future is inseparable from sustainable development and decarbonisation.
Development of sustainable renewable energy projects in Lithuania and the
region is top priority for the Ignitis Group in its long-term strategy. Entering
the bond market again, we hope that Lithuanian and foreign investors will
contribute to the implementation of environmentally friendly projects,” – says Darius
Maikštėnas, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Ignitis Group.
Ignitis Group retains an attractive
credit rating. After the annual credit ratings review, the international credit
rating agency S&P Global Ratings just affirmed its BBB+ ratings for the
Company. The assigned rating is one of the highest among the peer energy companies
in the region.
Global Investor
Call and a series of telephonic investor calls across Europe will
be organized in the coming days.
Bond issue is planned to
be listed on the Luxembourg and the Nasdaq Vilnius Stock Exchanges. Ignitis
Group has mandated BNP Paribas, Citi and J.P. Morgan as Joint
Lead Managers and Joint Bookrunners and Luminor as Co-manager.
In 2017 and 2018 the Company
successfully placed two issues of Green Bonds. EUR 600 mln in total were
borrowed for the development of green energy projects for a period of 10 years.
The proceeds from the issues are being used to finance investment in wind
energy, enhancement of efficiency of the power distribution grid, as well as
the projects of energy production from waste and biomass.
