Sun Hung Kai & Co Issues US$400 Million Bond

1 September 2017, Hong Kong

Sun Hung Kai & Co. Limited (SEHK: 86) (the "Company", together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") announced that it has successfully placed the issue of US$400 million 5-year guaranteed notes bearing a 4.65% coupon per annum, as part of its refinancing and on-going capital management program.

The net proceeds from the bond issue will be used to refinance the Company's existing indebtedness and the balance for general corporate purposes. It also extends the Company's debt maturity profile. The issue is part of the US$2 billion Guaranteed Medium Term Note Program ("MTN Program"). AMTD, Bank of China (Hong Kong), Standard Chartered Bank, UBS AG and Sun Hung Kai Financial acted as managers of the bond issue.

Group Executive Chairman, Lee Seng Huang said, "This is our third public issue following the establishment of the MTN Program in 2012 and we are steadily building a track record in the debt capital market. The strong response to this issue is an encouraging signal of the market's confidence in the Group."

Last month, the Group announced a strong set of results for the six-month period ending 30 June 2017, with profit attributable to owners of the company increasing by 183% year-on-year, driven by solid performance in its Consumer Finance and Principal Investments businesses.
