Noble gets 3-year US$700m loan

It is also in talks with stakeholders to launch its restructuring plan.

Noble Group Limited (NGL) scored an in-principle agreement with its senior creditors in an ad-hoc group and ING for a three-year US$700m trade finance facility.

According to an SGX announcement, the ad-hoc group represents the holders of 36% of the group's debt. Moreover, NGL said the group's advisors are in contact with 15% of the group's existing senior debt instruments.

The trader also said that restructuring talks with stakeholders "continue to be productive" as it approached the launch of the restructuring support agreement (RSA).

"Given the status of restructuring discussions with the Ad Hoc Group in reaching agreement on the RSA, and the trade finance facilities presently provided by the Group's banks, the Board is, on balance and on the basis of legal advice, satisfied that the Group can continue as a going concern, until such time as the restructuring is completed," NGL said.

Meanwhile, it also warned that it will report losses in Q4, from its hard commodities, freight, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) operations. It also mentioned losses from its halted global oil liquids and North American gas & power operations.

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.
