Barry Callebaut successfully places a dual-tranche EUR 1,750 million bond

The issuance consists of a 3 year tranche of EUR 900 million and a 6.5 year tranche of EUR 850 million (the “Notes”), priced at a coupon of 3.75% and 4.25% respectively per annum. The Notes will be traded on the SIX Exchange (ISIN BE6360448615 (3-year tranche); (ISIN BE6360449621 (6.5-year tranche)). Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including for the refinancing of existing debt, with the undrawn bridge term loan facility entered into by the Group in December 2024 to be cancelled in full. The success of the bond issuance allows the Group to take a proactive approach on upcoming maturities in fiscal year 2024/2025 and 2025/2026.

Peter Vanneste, CFO of the Barry Callebaut Group, commented: “Today’s successful bond issuance in the Euro capital markets highlights the continued support from our investment community. We are pleased to have secured additional funding which provides flexibility needed to address the continued volatility in cocoa bean prices.”
