NOTICE TO THE MARKET
CPFL ENERGIA WON THE “EQUITIES DEAL OF THE YEAR 2020 – AMERICAS” AWARD
CPFL Energia S.A. (“CPFL Energia” or “Company”) announces to its shareholders and the market that it won the “Equities Deal of the Year 2020 – Americas” Award, granted on May 1st, 2020 by The Banker (a publication of the Financial Times) to its 2019 Re-IPO (R$3.7 billion).
Deals of the Year 2020 was awarded by product and region. There are five regions: Africa, Asia-Pacific, Middle East, Americas and Europe. In each region, there are an award for the following 12 categories: Bonds - Corporates, Bonds - Sovereigns, Supras and Agencies, Equities (including IPOs and Equity-linked), FIG - Capital Raising/Restructuring, Green Finance, Infrastructure and Project Finance (including Project Bonds), Islamic Finance, Leveraged Finance (including High Yield Bonds), Loans, M&A, Restructuring and Securitization.
Following its re-initial public offering (IPO) in June 2019, which saw it offer 134 million shares, CEO Gustavo Estrella commented in the press that it was entering a new phase where it could focus on growth.
State Grid Corporation of China (“State Grid”), the world’s largest utility company by revenue, has held majority ownership in CPFL Energia since January 2017 and bought out minority shareholders in November 2017. Prior to CPFL Energia’s Re-IPO, only about 5% of the Company’s stock was available on Brazil’s Bovespa Stock Exchange (“B3”). B3 requires all companies that it lists in Novo Mercado segment to have at least 15% of their shares available on the public market (combined with an R$25 million ADTV).
In June 2019, the Company sold R$3.7 billion-worth (US$ 707 million) of shares, at a price of R$27.50 each. The issuance was worth about 12% of the Company’s total market capitalization, and the move was considered a Re-IPO due to the low liquidity of its shares prior to this. There was strong investor demand, with a 3.9 times oversubscription for the shares. The Company achieved a 16.29% free float after the Re-IPO, complying with B3’s rules.
The offering was the first ever equity capital markets transaction of a state-owned Chinese company outside of Asia and the largest utilities-related equities transaction in Brazil’s history. The proceeds were used by CPFL Energia to buy out the stake of parent group State Grid, in CPFL Renováveis, CPFL Energia’s renewable energy arm, transforming it into a wholly owned subsidiary. The company plans to use CPFL Renováveis as an investment vehicle for further growth, including potential acquisitions.
