Vienna, 4 November 2019 ‒ Already on the first day of the offer period the maximum volume of € 120m of the 2.750% UBM-Bond 2019 (ISIN AT0000A2AX04) was successfully placed. The cash subscription started on 4 November 2019 at 10.30 a.m. ‒ due to the extraordinarily strong demand, the books were closed again at 12.00 p.m.. Holders of the UBM-Bond 2015-2020 had already been invited to exchange the existing bonds for the new six-year UBM-Bond 2019. This offer was accepted by approximately one third of the holders of the old UBM-Bond 2015-2020 (equivalent to a total principal amount of € 25.16m). “We are delighted with the great success of this issue and the strong confidence of investors in UBM as a reliable bond issuer,” said Patric Thate, CFO of UBM Development AG, adding: “These funds increase our room for manoeuvre for further investments in our core business, real estate development. Our financial strength is a significant competitive advantage“.
The UBM-Bond 2019 was offered for subscription in Austria, Germany and Luxembourg as part of a public offering subject to a prospectus requirement and in other countries as part of a private placement. UBM Development AG plans to use the proceeds from the issue to refinance existing financing and to realise new and existing projects. The planned value date is 13 November 2019. The listing of the UBM-Bond 2019 on the Official Market (Corporates Prime) of the Vienna Stock Exchange is intended. Raiffeisen Bank International AG and M.M.
