Interest Rate Swap

 

Lok'nStore Group plc, one of the leading UK self-storage companies, is pleased to announce that following agreement of a new banking facility in October 2011, it has entered into a £10 million interest rate swap with Lloyds TSB Bank Plc. The swap fixes the interest rate on £10 million at an effective rate of 3.55% up to the expiration of the current banking facility in October 2016.

 

Lok'nStore has a £40 million revolving credit facility of which £28.5 million is currently drawn. The swap announced today fixes the rate on £10 million of this leaving £18.5 million floating currently at an effective interest rate of 3.1%.

 

No arrangement fees were incurred.

 

Ray Davies, Finance Director commented,

 

"Given the very low interest rate and the small premium over our variable rate available on this swap, we feel that it is a good time to lock in to these historically low interest rates. An effective interest rate of 3.55% on this portion of our debt protects our cash flow and demonstrates our excellent relationship with our lenders and the Group's ability to secure market leading rates as a result of our financial strength and robust cash flow."
