Berlin, 29.02.2024 – Francotyp-Postalia Holding AG (ISIN DE000FPH9000) has amended its syndicated loan agreement with effect from February 26th, 2024. The agreement was signed with the established banking consortium consisting of Landesbank Baden-Württemberg as Facility Agent, Deutsche Bank AG and UniCredit Bank GmbH.
The syndicated loan has a total volume of EUR 55 million and a term of three years with twofold option to extend it by one year. The agreement was concluded with the same covenants. The volume was adjusted to the financing requirements for the coming years. FP is continuing to work on its transformation and the further development of its innovative solutions. The credit line offers sufficient scope to cover the anticipated financing requirements and to implement M&A projects quickly if necessary. The new syndicated loan agreement thus provides FP with a good basis for driving forward the Group’s strategy and profitable growth in the coming years. A further EUR 8.5 million is being repaid upon conclusion of the new agreement. A repayment of EUR 7.5 million was already made in Q3/2023.
