PRESS RELEASE
Neuilly-sur-Seine, France – November 8, 2024
Bureau Veritas successfully completes the
bond issuance of EUR 500 million with a maturity in November
2031
Bureau Veritas, a world
leader in testing, inspection and certification (TIC) services,
announces the successful placement of a EUR 500 million bond issue
maturing in November 2031 and carrying a coupon of
3.125%.
This bond issuance was largely oversubscribed
(2.3 times), enabling Bureau Veritas to price with a final spread
much below initial price indications. This underlines the strong
investors’ confidence in Bureau Veritas business model, its LEAP |
28 strategy as well as the quality of its credit profile. This
issuance would be assigned an A3 rating by Moody’s.
This new bond allows Bureau Veritas to seize
attractive market conditions for general corporate purposes and
refinancing of existing indebtedness (which may include some of the
existing USPP).
Admission of the bonds to trading on Euronext
Paris will be effective on the settlement date, which is expected
to take place on November 15, 2024.
BofA Securities and Société Générale acted as
Global Coordinators and Active Joint Bookrunners.
Barclays, Commerzbank, Crédit Agricole CIB, NatWest Markets and
UniCredit acted as Active Joint Bookrunners.
