Debt refinancing

Low & Bonar is pleased to announce that it has agreed and executed a new 5 year, EUR165m revolving credit facility with a syndicate of five relationship banks, to refinance its existing EUR165m facility which was due to mature in July 2019.

Under the terms of the new facility, the Group's maximum net debt:EBITDA covenant has been temporarily increased, from 3.0x to 3.5x, until 31 May 2019, to provide additional headroom as the Group executes its reorganisation and cost and structural debt reduction plans. The holders of the Group's EUR60m Senior Notes have also agreed to the same temporary increase in the net debt:EBITDA covenant.

There is no material change to the cost of the overall debt.
