Ezra fixed rate notes oversubscribed

Proceeds will extend the Group’s debt maturity profile.

Ezra Holdings Limited said investors showed firm support for Ezra and its subsidiaries’ growth prospects by fully subscribing for the S$200 million, 5% per annum fixed rate notes due 2015.

The notes, the Group’s largest notes issue to date, were placed to institutional and sophisticated investors, who will receive their 5% per annum coupon interest payments semi-annually.

DBS Bank Ltd. (DBS) and The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (HSBC) are the appointed dealers of the notes.

The net proceeds from the issue will be used mainly to refinance existing short-term borrowings of the Group.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
