Pricing of GBP denominated fixed rate guaranteed bonds

Saga plc ("Saga" or "the Group"), the UK's specialist in products and services for people over 50, today announces the successful pricing of its offering (the "Offering") of £250 million 5.5 per cent. guaranteed unsecured bonds due 2026 (the "Bonds"), following the launch of the Offering on 22 June 2021.

The Bonds will be guaranteed by Saga Services Limited and Saga Mid Co Limited. The Bonds will be issued at par and interest will be paid semi-annually in arrear. It is expected that the Offering will close on 2 July 2021, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, and that the Bonds will be admitted to the Irish Stock Exchange's Official List and to trading on the Global Exchange Market of the Irish Stock Exchange.

The proceeds of the Offering will be used by Saga (i) to repay in full its existing £70m term loan, (ii) to fund the settlement of a concurrent tender offer for up to £100m of its existing outstanding unsecured bonds, and (iii) for general corporate purposes.

James Quin, Chief Financial Officer at Saga plc, commented:

"We are pleased with the strong response to this bond issuance as we continue to demonstrate good progress against all our strategic priorities. The completion of this offering further strengthens our financial position and gives us greater financial flexibility as we return the business to sustainable growth and create significant long-term value for all our stakeholders."

The person responsible for making this announcement is Vicki Haynes, Group Company Secretary of Saga plc.
