The refinancing was executed with a mix of US Private Placement Notes and Bank debt. As part of the process Evos obtained an investment grade rating. With these new debt facilities, Evos refinanced and extended most of its outstanding debt.
This strategic refinancing underpins the long-term future of Evos, a leading liquid tank storage business, ensuring that Evos can continue its successful growth and development of the business.
Harry Deans, CEO, stated, “This is a great achievement and will help us to execute our strategy even more effectively. We are excited about the opportunities this refinancing brings to further grow, develop and evolve our business with our customers as we navigate the energy transition together.”
Koert Schouten, CFO, commented, “We are looking forward to continuing working with our existing lenders and welcome our new financial partners. We are very excited about Evos and have now implemented a stable long-term funding base that allows the business to operate, grow and invest in its future.”
Evos was advised on the refinancing by Evercore (financial advisor), CIBC and NAB (joint US PP agents), Latham & Watkins (legal) and the lenders were advised by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett (legal).
