SGL Carbon shares fell in Wednesday trading after the German
company said it would issue approximately 120 million euros ($131
million) in convertible bonds due in 2028.
At 0739 GMT shares traded 8.5% lower at EUR7.75.
The bonds, which will only be offered to institutional investors
outside the U.S. by way of an accelerated bookbuilding, would be
convertible into up to 12.2 million no-par value ordinary shares,
SGL Carbon said.
"The convertible bonds will have a maturity of years and will be
issued and redeemed at 100% of their principal amount, with a
coupon of between 5.50% and 6.00% p.a., payable semi-annually in
arrear on June 28 and December 28, commencing on Dec. 28, 2023,"
the company said.
SGL Carbon shareholder SKion GmbH has indicated that it is
interested in placing an order in the accelerated bookbuilding, SGL
Carbon said.
The company said it plans to use the net proceeds from the bond
issue to help refinance its 4.625% bonds due next year.
