Paris, Amsterdam, Apr 18, 2018 - (ACN Newswire) - Unibail-Rodamco last week conducted a European roadshow interacting with more than 50 investors. Yesterday, the Group priced a EUR 2.0 Bn dual-tranche hybrid transaction:
- A EUR 1,250 Mn Deeply Subordinated Perpetual Non-Call 5.5 year hybrid security with a 2.125% coupon; - A EUR 750 Mn Deeply Subordinated Perpetual Non-Call 8 year hybrid security with a 2.875% coupon.
The combined order book came to EUR 6.8 Bn, the largest order book for a Euro denominated hybrid issuance in 2018 to date.
This transaction is the first ever public hybrid security issuance by a European REIT.
It also marks the return of Unibail-Rodamco to the securities markets following the announcement of the acquisition of Westfield in December 2017.

Unibail-Rodamco is rated A2 (stable) / A (stable) / A (negative) by Moody's, S&P and Fitch respectively.
