Singtel issues $680.8m 10-year notes

It will carry a coupon of 2.375% per annum.

As part of its long-term financing strategy, Asia's leading communications and ICT solutions group Singtel unveiled the issuance of $680.8 million (US$500m) 10-year notes through its subsidiary, Singtel Group Treasury Pte. Ltd. (SGT).

In a statement, Singtel said the notes will carry a coupon of 2.375% per annum and will be drawn under SGT's $10 billion Euro MEdium Term Note Programme guaranteed by Singtel.

The said notes will mature in 2026.

Singtel Group Financial Officer Lim Cheng Cheng said the issue extends the debt maturity profile of Singtel and its subsidiaries.

More so, the net proceeds from this issue will be applied by SGT to fund its ordinary course of business.

“We are very pleased with the all-in coupon and the credit spread achieved on this transaction. The response from investors has been encouraging and underscores their continued confidence in the Singtel Group’s strong credit quality and business fundamentals," Lim noted.

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.
