VINCI launches an offering of up to €400 million cash-settled synthetic convertible bonds
VINCI announces the launch of a €375 million offering (which may be increased to €400 million) of non-dilutive cash-settled convertible bonds with a maturity of 5 years due 18 February 2030 (the "Bonds”) to institutional investors.
The Bonds offer investors exposure to the performance of VINCI ordinary shares (the "Shares”). If investors exercise their conversion right attached to the Bonds, they will receive a cash amount based on the average price of the Shares over a period following the conversion. As the Bonds will only be cash settled, they will not give right to any new or existing Shares.
Concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, VINCI will purchase cash settled call options on the Shares (the "Options”) to hedge its economic exposure in case of exercise of the conversion right attached to the Bonds.
The net proceeds of the issue of the Bonds will be used for general corporate purposes of VINCI and the purchase of the Options.
The Bonds will bear interest at an annual nominal rate of between 0.45 % and 0.70 % payable semi-annually in arrear on 18 August and 18 February of each year, commencing on 18 August 2025. The Bonds will be issued at par on 18 February 2025, the expected settlement-delivery date of the Bonds, and redeemed at par on 18 February 2030. The nominal value of each Bond will be €100,000.
The initial conversion price will represent a conversion premium of 20 % over the share reference price. The share reference price will be determined as the arithmetic average of VINCI’s daily volume-weighted average Share price in euros on the regulated market of Euronext in Paris over the 5 consecutive trading days from 12 February 2025 to 18 February 2025 (the "Reference Share Price Period”). The initial conversion ratio of the Bonds will be determined on 18 February 2025 and will correspond to the nominal value per Bond divided by the initial conversion price.
The final terms of the Bonds are expected to be announced later today, except for the share reference price, the initial conversion price and the initial conversion ratio which will be announced by VINCI via a press release at the end of the Reference Share Price Period on 18 February 2025.
After the determination of the final terms of the Bonds (other than the share reference price, the initial conversion price and the initial conversion ratio) it is anticipated that the hedge counterparties to the Options will enter into transactions to hedge their respective positions under the Options through the sale, purchase of Shares or any other transactions, on the market and off-market, at any time, and in particular during the Reference Share Price Period as well as following any conversion or in the event of early redemption of the Bonds.
In the context of the offering, VINCI will agree to a lock-up undertaking in relation to the Shares and equity-linked securities for a period ending 60 calendar days after the settlement and delivery date, subject to certain exceptions.
The Bonds will be offered via an accelerated book building process through a private placement to institutional investors only or otherwise not entailing a public offering, outside the United States of America, Australia, South Africa, Canada and Japan. No prospectus, offering circular or similar document will be prepared in connection with the offering of the Bonds.
VINCI intends to apply for the Bonds to be admitted to trading on Euronext AccessTM (previously Open Market (marché libre) of Euronext in Paris).
This press release does not constitute a subscription offer of the Bonds and the offering of the Bonds does not constitute a public offering in any country, including in France.
