£27.5 m private placement of loan notes

£27.5 million private placement of loan notes

 

MedicX Fund Limited (LSE: MXF), the specialist primary care infrastructure investor in modern purpose-built primary healthcare properties in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, announces that it has raised £27.5 million through a private placement of loan notes bought by a new institutional lender to the Fund. IDCM Limited acted as arranger to the transaction. The loan notes have a duration of eleven years and two months maturing on 30 September 2028, with no amortisation and the principal value repayable on maturity. The interest rate on the notes is fixed for their term at 3.00%.

The loans are secured against certain properties and the proceeds from the issue of the loan notes will be invested in accordance with the Company's investment policy.

This new facility, together with the full draw down of the Bank of Ireland development loan facility put in place in March 2017, results in a reduced average all-in fixed rate of debt for the Fund of 4.27% with an average unexpired term of 12.7 years. Assuming the funds were fully drawn immediately with the proceeds invested in the completion of existing properties under construction or the purchase of new properties, adjusted gearing (the ratio of total debt to total assets in each case net of cash and cash equivalents) would be expected to be approximately 53.7%.

 

David Staples, Chairman, said "We are delighted to announce our third private placement issue of loan notes at the lowest rate to date. The terms of the loan notes are competitive with facilities currently available from bank lenders. This additional debt by a new lender further diversifies our lender base and enables the Fund to commit to new investments in our pipeline of acquisition opportunities whilst being locked into low fixed interest rates for the long term, consistent with our ongoing funding strategy".
