SIG issues €625m Eurobond following recent Moody’s investment grade rating

SIG has successfully placed a five year €625 million Eurobond with an annual coupon of 3.75%.

Settlement date is March 19, 2025 with a maturity date of March 19, 2030. The bonds will be listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. BNP PARIBAS and Bank of America acted as joint global coordinators, while Crédit Agricole CIB, Rabobank, UBS and UniCredit acted as active bookrunners.

The net proceeds of the transactions will be used for general corporate purposes and the refinancing of SIG’s existing maturing Eurobond.

SIG is rated investment grade by both S&P (BBB-) and Moody’s (Baa3).

Chief Financial Officer, Anne Erkens said: “We are very pleased with the successful placement of our Eurobond at an attractive coupon, which marks SIG’s return to the public capital markets. The issue was heavily oversubscribed demonstrating investor recognition of our resilient business model and growth strategy. The placement is part of our financing strategy to spread out our debt maturity profile and maintain access to diversified sources of funding for the Group.”
