Completion of a refinancing
Today, GBG, a global identity technology business enabling safe and rewarding
digital lives, is pleased to announce the successful refinancing of its
Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF"). The new £175 million RCF has been
structured on an unsecured basis and will mature in September 2030, replacing
the existing secured facility due to mature in July 2027. In addition, the new
RCF contains two optional one-year maturity extension options.
The facility has been arranged with a syndicate comprising existing and new
lending partners, including HSBC Innovation Bank Ltd, National Westminster
Bank plc, Barclays Bank plc and Fifth Third Bank, National Association,
reflecting their confidence in the Company and its strategy to accelerate
growth.
David Ward, Chief Financial Officer of GBG, commented: "I am pleased that we
have successfully refinanced our RCF at similar commercial terms to our
existing facility but for a longer tenor. This secures our capital structure
for an extended period while providing enhanced flexibility to support the
continued execution of our strategic objectives."
GBG expects to release its full year trading update for the year ended 31
March 2026 on Wednesday, 22 April.
