AROUNDTOWN ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL REFINANCING OF SHORTER-TERM BONDS THROUGH REPURCHASE AND ISSUANCE OF NEW 0% COUPON BONDS MATURING 2026


16 December 2020

Aroundtown ('the Company' or 'AT') announces the final results of its successful tender offer to the holders of its Series D (1.5% coupon, maturing 2022), Series E (1.5% coupon, maturing 2024), and Series 35 (1.375% coupon, maturing 2024) Straight Bonds (the 'Bonds'). The Company has in total accepted €439 million in aggregate principle amount of tendered notes, of which €57 million of Series D, €271 million of Series E and €111 million of Series 35 Bonds. As more than 80% of the original principle amount of Series D and Series 35 Bonds will be repurchased, Aroundtown has the option to redeem the remaining outstanding amount of Series D and Series 35 Bonds, resulting in a total potential repurchase amount of approx. €570 million. The repurchase of the Bonds has been financed through the issuance of €1 billion of new Series 38 Straight Bonds, which have been issued at a coupon of 0% and mature in Q3 2026, resulting in a reduction of the Company's cost of debt while further optimizing its balanced debt maturity schedule.

AT's financial policy is to pro-actively manage its debt maturity schedule in order to refinance shorter term debt when markets provide favorable funding opportunities with longer maturities and lower rates.
