NLMK signs €600 m revolving credit facility
NLMK Group signed a 4-year syndicated revolving credit facility (RCF) with a group of international banks in the amount of €600 m, with an accordion option allowing the Company to increase the funding limit to €1 bn.
A RCF is an arrangement which allows for cash amounts to be withdrawn and repaid as needed within the set limit, with interest charged based only on the current withdrawal amount. This facility helps ensure optimal liquidity without additional costs.
‘In spite of the complicated market environment, there was significant demand from American, European and Asian banks. The agreement would further improve our average cost of debt and extend our maturity profile,’ – commented CFO of NLMK Group, Shamil Kurmashov.
Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, NATIXIS, Intesa Sanpaolo Bank Ireland Plc, SGBTCI, AO Raiffeisenbank, Bank of America Merrill Lynch International DAC, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, Bank ICBC (JSC), ING Bank N.V. and UniCredit S.p.A., acted as Mandated Lead Arrangers.
