ESISTENTE

Alessandria, 23 giugno 2021 - Guala Closures S.p.A. (la "Società ") annuncia in data odierna di aver completato con successo il pricing del prestito obbligazionario senior secured di importo complessivo in linea capitale di Euro 500 milioni con scadenza nel 2028 (le "Obbligazioni"), che verrà emesso ad un prezzo di emissione pari al 100% e che maturerà un tasso di interesse annuo del 3,25% (l'"Offerta"). Si prevede che l'Offerta sarà completata il 7 luglio 2021 ed è soggetta a consuete condizioni di chiusura. L'Offerta è stata incrementata rispetto all'importo complessivo in linea capitale di Euro 475 milioni precedentemente annunciato alla luce della domanda da parte degli investitori.

Successivamente all'emissione, è previsto che le Obbligazioni siano quotate su uno o più mercati regolamentati o sistemi multilaterali di negoziazione nell'Unione Europea.

Nel contesto dell'Offerta, la Società comunica altresì di aver stipulato un nuovo contratto di finanziamento revolving multi valuta per un importo complessivo pari a Euro 80 milioni (il "Nuovo Finanziamento Revolving"), in sostituzione della linea revolving esistente (la "Linea Revolving Esistente"), che sarà disponibile per sostenere, inter alia, le esigenze di capitale circolante del gruppo (congiuntamente all'Offerta, il "Rifinanziamento").

Si prevede che i proventi derivanti dall'Offerta siano utilizzati per rimborsare il prestito obbligazionario senior secured emesso dalla Società per un importo complessivo in linea capitale pari a Euro 455 milioni con scadenza nel 2024 (le "Obbligazioni Esistenti") ad un prezzo pari al 100% dell'importo complessivo in linea capitale delle stesse, per rimborsare l'ammontare ancora dovuto ai sensi della Linea Revolving Esistente, per pagare gli interessi maturati a valere sulle Obbligazioni Esistenti e sulla Linea Revolving Esistente e per pagare le commissioni e i costi correlati al Rifinanziamento. Tale operazione fa seguito al verificarsi di un evento di "change of control" ai sensi del regolamento che disciplina i termini e le condizioni delle obbligazioni Obbligazioni Esistenti, in relazione all'offerta pubblica di acquisto obbligatoria promossa da Special Packaging Solutions Investments S.à r.l.

Forward-looking statements give the Company's current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections relating to its financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business as well as the industries in which the Company operates, as well as the beliefs and assumptions of the Company's management. In particular, certain statements with regard to management objectives, trends in results of operations, margins, costs, return on equity, risk management and competition tend to be forward-looking in nature. These statements may include, without limitation, any statements preceded by, followed by or including words such as "target," "believe," "expect," "aim," "intend," "goal," "may," "anticipate," "estimate," "plan," "project," "seek," "will," "can have," "likely," "should," "would," "could" and other words and terms of similar meaning or the negative thereof. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors beyond the Company's control that could cause the Company's actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the expected results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such forward- looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding the Company's present and future business strategies and the environment in which it will operate in the future. Therefore, the Company's actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of future performance. The Company therefore cautions against relying on any of these forward-looking statements.
