ARTEA Considers Extending Its 2026 Bond Issue
ARTEA has announced a general meeting of bondholders scheduled for February 19, 2026. The company plans to propose extending the maturity of its bond issue, initially set for March 16, 2026, with a total amount of 28.749 million euros, until March 16, 2029.
Extension Proposal for Bond Maturity
ARTEA announces a project to extend the maturity date of its bond issue, issued in two tranches on March 16, 2021, and December 9, 2022. This bond, with a total amount of 28.749 million euros bearing an interest rate of 5% per annum, was initially due on March 16, 2026 (ISIN code: FR0014002D70). The bondholders will be convened in a general assembly on February 19, 2026, to approve this extension, which would push the maturity date to March 16, 2029. This extension is conditional upon launching, no later than February 24, 2026, an exchange offer.
Planned Exchange Offer
As part of this operation, ARTEA plans to launch an exchange offer covering all or part of the existing bonds. This offer will involve the substitution of these bonds with a new bond issue with a total maximum amount of 28.749 million euros, bearing a fixed interest rate and maturing in 2029. The new bonds will be secured by guarantees which may take the form of pledges of shares of subsidiaries of the company and/or shares of the company itself. The launch of this exchange offer will be subject to a subsequent communication from ARTEA.
