On 8 January 2019, Cellnex Telecom successfully placed EUR 200 million additional senior unsecured convertible bonds due 2026 (the “New Bonds”) which was, from the Issue Date (21 January 2019), consolidated and form a single series with the existing EUR 600 million with a coupon of 1.50% senior unsecured convertible bonds due 2026 issued by Cellnex on 16 January 2018 (the “Original Bonds”, and together with the New Bonds, the “Bonds”).
Each New Bond was issued at EUR 100,270.55 (including interest accrued from, and including, 16 January 2019 to, but excluding 21 January 2019). The New Bonds will carry a coupon of 1.50% (resulting in a implied yield to maturity of c.1.45%) payable annually in arrears and its prevailing conversion price into Cellnex shares was EUR 38.0829, the same as for the Original Bonds (issued in January 2018). The conversion price, which is subject to customary adjustments, represents a premium of c. 60% over the price of Cellnex’s shares on the Spanish Stock Exchanges at close of the market at issuance (7 January 2019). The shares underlying the New Bonds are equivalent to c.2.3% of the company’s capital, based on the prevailing conversion Price.
As the Original Bonds, the New Bonds will be convertible at the option of the bondholders into ordinary shares of Cellnex.
Cellnex may opt to redeem all (but not some) of the Bonds on or after 18 July 2022 if the market value of the underlying shares per €100,000 principal amount of the Bonds exceeds EUR 130,000 during a specified period of time, or, at any time, if more than 85% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds issued have been converted and/or redeemed and/or purchased and cancelled.
This issuance allows Cellnex to increase its weighted average debt maturity, to improve its weighted average cost of borrowing and to continue to maintain its liquidity position.
The issuance has a rating of BBB- by Fitch, which is the company’s current rating.
