Lundin Mining获得承诺,将其现有信贷额度增至45亿美元
,/CNW/ - (TSX: LUN)(Nasdaq Stockholm: LUMI)Lundin Mining Corporation(“Lundin Mining”或“公司”)欣然宣布,公司已收到17家贷款方的承诺,将其现有循环信贷额度(“信贷额度”)扩大并修订至45亿美元,以便为Vicuña项目提供资金以及用于一般公司用途。该等承诺须以公司及信贷额度贷款方满意的最终文件的签署和交付以及惯例先决条件的满足为前提。 本新闻稿中所有货币金额均以美国美元表示,除非另有说明。
承诺总额为45亿美元,公司最初可获得22.5亿美元。在满足若干条件后,该信贷额度将扩大至35亿美元,并在Vicuña项目一期获批后,将增至全额45亿美元。此外,到期日将延长至2031年。定价与现有额度保持不变,采用滑动费率,根据公司的杠杆率,利差在调整后SOFR之上介于1.45%至2.50%之间。
首席财务官Teitur Poulsen评论道:“将我们的信贷额度扩大至45亿美元是推进Vicuña项目的基石之一,并使我们在Vicuña全面投产后实现年产铜超过50万吨、成为全球前十铜生产商的目标保持在正轨上。我们对现有12家贷款行以及新加入信贷额度的5家贷款行所作的承诺感到非常满意。”
“在我们继续与合作伙伴必和必拓(BHP)合作优化Vicuña项目融资策略的同时,信贷融资的扩展和增额进一步增强了我们的财务灵活性,并凸显了贷款合作伙伴对Vicuña项目质量及我们更广泛运营组合的信心。结合我们稳健的资产负债表和一贯的运营表现,该信贷融资使我们能够为我们在Vicuña项目中的份额提供资金,同时继续每年进行2.2亿美元的股东分配,为股东创造长期价值。”
经修订的信贷安排预计将包含有关费用、陈述、保证和财务契约的标准及惯常条款和条件。
该修订后的信贷安排协议一经签署,将在 SEDAR+(www.sedarplus.ca)上提交。
