"The most important aspect in this report is the events after the quarter. On 28 April Axactor announced a transformational transaction backed by Fortress and Geveran to support next phase of growth" says CEO Johnny Tsolis.
He further adds: “Geveran and Fortress are two of the most respected names in the industry. The transaction and our co-investment agreement with Fortress provides significant investment capacity, superior underwriting capabilities and an extensive NPL deal sourcing network. The new and stronger balance sheet is expected to result in a significantly lower cost of funding, increased investment capacity, and attractive collection performance, supporting substantial shareholder distribution capacity going forward”
Shortly after the announcement of the transaction, Axactor successfully completed a new 4.25-year senior unsecured floating rate bond issue of EUR 100 million with a coupon of 3m EURIBOR + 3.90%.
"Our newly issued bond (ACR06) with a record-low margin for the company confirms strong market confidence in our transformation and marks a step-change in funding cost" states Mr. Tsolis.
