Olam International to issue $100m perpetual securities

Thise will be consolidated with its existing $250m securities, issued under the same programme.

Olam International Limited has announced its plans to issue $100m subordinated perpetual securities, which will be consolidated with its existing $250m perpetual securities, issued last January.

The issue price is set at 100.01 per cent of the aggregate principal amount, in addition to the accrued interest from 18 January 2021 to the issue date.

Its distribution rate is 5.375% annually until 18 July 2026.

This forms part of the company’s US$5b euro medium term note programme.

Net proceeds, according to the company, will be used for debt refinancing amongst other purposes, outlined in its 5 May offering circular.

This also includes financing capital expenditure and potential acquisition opportunities.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
