Landsec announces final results of the tender offers

 

On 6 September 2017, Landsec's wholly-owned subsidiary, Land Securities PLC, launched separate invitations to holders of three tranches of its bonds to tender their notes for cash. Land Securities PLC confirms that it will accept for purchase in cash an aggregate principal amount of notes across two tranches equal to £502m at a cash cost of £673m. The final results of the offer are contained in the release issued to the Irish Stock Exchange on Friday 15 September 2017 (see below).

In addition, Land Securities Capital Markets PLC confirms it will issue a £500m bond with an expected maturity of 20 years, paying a coupon of 2.625% and a £500m bond with an expected maturity of 40 years, paying a coupon of 2.75%.

Based upon Landsec's reported debt position and valuation at 31 March 2017, the pro forma impact of the tender offers and new issuance is as follows:

· The Group's weighted average maturity of debt will be extended by 5.2 years.

· Group LTV increases by 1.2 percentage points.

· Adjusted diluted net assets will be circa £171m lower.

· The annual net interest saving on the tendered bonds, taking into account the cost of the new issuance, will be circa £8.4m. The annual cost of terming out circa £325m of short term debt will be circa £6.3m.

The following release was issued to the Irish Stock Exchange on Friday 15 September 2017 by Land Securities PLC:
