Success of a 650 million euros 7.9-year
Sustainability-Linked Bond
Carrefour today successfully placed a Sustainability-Linked bond issue, for a total amount of €650 million. It is indexed to two objectives: the first one is linked to the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, related to Scope 1 and 2. The second objective is linked to the number of suppliers committed to a climate strategy.
The main features are:
● Amount: 650 million euros
● Issuer : Carrefour SA
● Maturity and payment: May 2033
● Format: Fixed rate, bullet repayment
● Coupon: 3.75% per annum
This issue was oversubscribed almost 2.5 times, demonstrating once again the great confidence of the financial community in the quality of the Carrefour signature. This enabled a rapid placement at favorable conditions.
The 650 million euros raised will be allocated to the financing of the Group's general corporate purposes as well as to the refinancing of its debt.
The bond will benefit from a "BBB" rating from Standard & Poor's.
