Mandag 18. mai 2020 gjennomførte Equinor ASA (OSE:EQNR, NYSE:EQNR), med garanti fra Equinor Energy AS, en transaksjon i kapitalmarkedet til en totalverdi av 1,75 milliarder Euro.

Transaksjonen i obligasjonsmarkedet består av følgende transjer:

• Utstedelse av obligasjonslån pålydende EUR 0,75 mrd med 0,75% i kupong, forfall 22. mai 2026
• Utstedelse av obligasjonslån pålydende EUR 1,0 mrd med 1,375% i kupong, forfall 22. mai 2032

'Equinor har de senere årene forbedret selskapet, inkludert vår portefølje og finansielle robusthet. I dagens volatile markedssituasjon med høy usikkerhet om fremtiden, ser vi verdien av å styrke vår finansielle fleksibilitet og robusthet ytterligere', sier finansdirektør i Equinor ASA, Lars Christian Bacher.

Lånebeløpet skal benyttes til finansiering av selskapets aktiviteter generelt. Dette kan inkludere tilbakebetaling og tilbakekjøp av utestående gjeld eller andre formål beskrevet i tilleggsprospektet utarbeidet for denne låneutstedelsen.

Lånene er fulltegnet og oppgjørsdato er 22. mai 2020
