Galderma Group AG (SWX:GALD):

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE RESTRICTED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION.

Galderma (SIX: GALD) has made significant progress on its refinancing strategy to spread out its maturity profile, diversify funding sources and reduce its interest costs, by successfully issuing the following bonds:

  • EUR 500 million bond, with a 5-year maturity and a 3.5% fixed-rate annual coupon
  • CHF 190 million bond, with a 4-year maturity and a 1.4025% fixed-rate annual coupon
  • CHF 245 million bond, with a 8-year maturity and a 1.8098% fixed-rate annual coupon

The payment dates are March 20, 2025, for the Eurobond and the CHF bonds. The bonds will be listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. The EUR transaction was led by BNP Paribas, J.P. Morgan, Mizuho, and Santander as active bookrunners, while the CHF transaction was led by UBS and BNP Paribas.

Galderma is rated BBB (stable outlook) by Fitch and Fitch is expected to rate the bonds BBB.

The net proceeds of the transactions will be used for the partial refinancing of Galderma’s existing Bank Term Loan issued at its initial public offering (IPO) as well as for general corporate purposes. These successful issuances are leverage-neutral and do not materially affect Galderma’s guidance for the full year 2025 on net financial expenses, last communicated on March 6, 2025, as part of the additional modelling metrics provided.
