Quote from Cibus' CEO, Christian Fredrixon:
"The overall purpose of the tender offers was to extend and lower interest costs and I am pleased to announce that we have tendered approx. 58% of the bonds in question and the remaining outstanding bonds can be redeemed in 2024. Yesterday we issued new bonds of 80m EUR and 700m SEK, which in total is the same amount as all our bonds maturing in 2024 and 2025. We have thus covered all bond maturities until Jan-2027.
Given redemption of all outstanding bonds under the tender offers in Q4 2023, our total bond maturity profile will be extended from 1.6 years to 3.5 years and our average bond margin will drop from 6.0% to 3.8% - which in itself is the lowest bond margin ever and at the same time the longest weighted average bond maturity we have had, which I feel demonstrates the strength in Cibus."
