Veolia Successfully Returns on Senior Bond Market
AUBERVILLIERS, France, September 02, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:
Veolia took advantage of a constructive market window to issue EUR 500 million bond with a September 2034 maturity. These bonds bear a coupon of 3.571 % and were issued at par.
This transaction marked the return of Veolia on the senior bond market, which the Group last tapped more than 3 years ago. In a positive but busy market, the quality of the orderbook and a high oversubscription rate enabled Veolia to reach a transaction with no new issue concession, which proves the significant appreciation of the Group’s credit quality and its financial strength.
"This transaction follows the repurchase of our convertible bond that took place in early August and is a testimony of the confidence of the finance community in Veolia’s performance and potential." declared Estelle Brachlianoff, Chief Executive Officer of Veolia Environnement. "The strong interest in Veolia’s proves the relevance of the strategic positioning of the Group on ecological transformation, and enables it to optimize its debt, in the best interest of different stakeholders, especially its shareholders and investors."
