RNS Number : 5061R MHP SE 03 February 2026
3 February 2026
MHP SE TAP OFFERING LAUNCH ANNOUNCEMENT
MHP SE, the parent company of a leading international food and agricultural
group with Ukrainian roots and one of the largest poultry producers in Europe,
has announced that it is launching a tap offering (the "Offering") to issue
additional amounts of 10.500% notes due 2029 (the "Additional Notes") of its
wholly owned subsidiary, MHP Lux S.A., a company incorporated in Luxembourg
(together with MHP SE and its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Group"), to be
consolidated and form a single series with the U.S.$450 million aggregate
principal amount of 10.500% notes due 2029 issued by MHP Lux S.A. on 28
January 2026 (the "Original Notes" and together with the Additional Notes,
the "Notes").
The Group intends to use the proceeds of the Additional Notes, along with the
proceeds of the Original Notes, to fund the tender offer and redemption of
the entire U.S.$550 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of MHP Lux
S.A.'s 6.95% Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"). The Offering replaces the use
of U.S.$100 million of the Group's internal cash that was originally earmarked
for partial repayment of the 2026 Notes. The retained cash, including any
proceeds in excess of U.S.$100 million, will instead be primarily kept outside
of Ukraine and allocated to the Group's future investment initiatives,
including capital expenditures and ongoing operational needs.
