Abu Dhabi, UAE – 23 December 2022: Fertiglobe (ADX: FERTIGLB), the strategic partnership between ADNOC and OCI N.V. (Euronext: OCI), the world’s largest seaborne exporter of urea and ammonia combined, the largest nitrogen fertilizer producer in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and an early mover in clean ammonia, today announced refinancing of the outstanding $900 million bridge facility, originally due 2024, with new 3-year ($300 million) and 5 year ($600 million) term facilities. In addition, Fertiglobe increased the capacity of its currently undrawn Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) from $300 million to $600 million and extended the facility’s maturity from 2026 to 2027.

The term facilities carry attractive margins of 150bps and 175bps respectively. The margin on the RCF has been reduced to 140bps compared to the previous facility margin of 175bps. Both transactions were heavily over-subscribed, demonstrating the strong support of Fertiglobe’s expanded bank group and the company’s current leverage and cash flow profile which position it well to maintain an attractive dividend profile and also pursue growth opportunities in the future. The refinancing agreement extends Fertiglobe’s weighted average debt maturity from 1.3 years to 4.3 years and provides ample liquidity.
