THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION AS STIPULATED UNDER THE UK'S MARKET ABUSE REGULATION. UPON THE PUBLICATION OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT, SUCH INSIDE INFORMATION IS NOW CONSIDERED TO BE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.

 

14 March 2025

 

DIGITAL 9 INFRASTRUCTURE PLC

 

("D9" or the "Company" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")

 

 Revolving Credit Facility Refinancing

 

The Board announces that the Company has refinanced the principal outstanding of £53.3 million on its existing Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF") which was due to expire on 17 March 2025. The renewed RCF, which remains fully drawn, has been made available to the Company for a committed three-month term expiring 17 June 2025, and if required two further three-month extension period options, subject to lender agreement at that time. The pricing for the initial tenor is at a margin of 425 basis points per annum over Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA") in addition to the payment of £1.3 million in fees, comprising an arrangement fee for the new facility and £1 million relating to a duration fee applied in respect of the historical covenant breach reported in the results for the half year ended 30 June 2024.

 

Upon receipt of the proceeds from the announced divestment of EMIC-1 and the release of the EMIC-1 construction commitments, the Company will repay c. £40 million of the RCF balance which will then amount to c. £13 million. The Company expects to repay the remaining balance using further sales proceeds and working capital surpluses by the end of H1 2025.

 

The new facility was agreed with the same lending group which includes: Royal Bank of Scotland International Limited, DNB (UK) Limited, Royal Bank of Canada and Banco Santander.

 

The Company now expects to release full year results during April in order to allow for the conclusion of the year end audit process, which is in its final stages.

 

ENDS.
