("Premier Foods" or "the Group")

GBP330m Fixed Rate Notes coupon confirmed at 3.5%, raising expectations for adjusted PBT

Premier Foods is pleased to confirm that following its announcement on 19 May 2021, it has priced the offering of new GBP330m Fixed Rate Notes (the "Notes")(1) due October 2026 at an annual interest rate of 3.5%. This will result in a further GBP8m per annum reduction in the Group's financing costs and so increases its FY21/22 expectations for adjusted profit before tax.

Duncan Leggett, Chief Financial Officer, said:

"The pricing of these Notes at 3.5% further illustrates the substantial progress we have made in the last two years to strengthen our financial position. With now significantly improved leverage, our reduced levels of fixed debt and lower interest costs mean we are raising our expectations for adjusted PBT."

The proceeds of the Notes will primarily be used to redeem the GBP300m Fixed Rate Notes due October 2023. This redemption will take place on 16 June 2021, subject to the closing of the offering of the Notes. Meanwhile, the Group's GBP20m outstanding Floating Rate Notes due July 2022 will be repaid on 3 June 2021. Interest costs on the new Notes will be paid semi-annually.
