Intrum has successfully issued a 5 year EUR 600 million senior fixed rate bond with a coupon of 4.875 per cent (the “Notes”). Application will be made to list the Notes on the Securities Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. The offering of the Notes is expected to close on August 5, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions.

Proceeds will be used to refinance a portion of Intrum’s outstanding EUR 750 million fixed rate notes due 2022.

“The successful completion of this bond issue is a testament to Intrum’s strong business and credit profile with a demonstrated resilience throughout the economic cycle. In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are satisfied having secured financing at these attractive terms and we view it as proof of continued high investor confidence. The issue will further strengthen Intrum’s solid balance sheet with an extension of our debt maturity profile,” says Anders Engdahl, CFO of Intrum.
