The Bond carries an interest rate of three-month EURIBOR plus a margin of 7.75% p.a. and was issued under a total framework of up to €200M. Strategic financial transformation: Unlocking €84M in cash flow
The successful bond issuance marks an important evolution in HomeToGo’s capital structure, transitioning from a restrictive, fast-amortizing bank loan to a flexible, long-term capital market instrument. While the Nordic Bond carries a higher interest margin compared to the previous bank loan, the operational advantages for HomeToGo's ability to execute its strategy are substantial: Creating a robust capital structure: With a five-year tenor (maturity in 2031) and 100% bullet repayment, HomeToGo eliminates near-term refinancing risks and cash flow strains, and establishes long-term planning certainty for its capital structure. Large cash flow reinvestment opportunity: Compared to the previous bank loan - which required full repayment of €75M by the end of 2027 - the new Bond structure saves more than €41M in cash flow in 2026 and €43M in 2027. Unlocking c. €84M of additional liquidity over the next two years allows HomeToGo to reinvest capital into organic growth and high-margin innovation, as well as M&A at rates of return significantly exceeding the cost of debt. Significantly enhanced strategic M&A ability: Unlike the previous debt facility, which imposed certain restrictions on further M&A transactions, the Nordic Bond provides HomeToGo with improved operational freedom to pursue its M&A strategy. With a total framework of up to €200M, the Company is now uniquely positioned to capitalize on future market consolidation opportunities, especially in the vacation rental property management and software space.[1] Use of proceeds
The net proceeds from the initial Bond issue will be primarily used to refinance the existing €75M bank loan, and to finance the deferred purchase price payments related to the Interhome acquisition of c. €22M due in 2026 and 2027. Sebastian Bielski, CFO of HomeToGo: "The successful placement of our first Nordic Bond is a clear vote of confidence from the capital markets in HomeToGo's transformative journey, and our strategy to focus on our B2B business and growing profitability. By securing this five-year financing, we have built a very robust balance sheet and capital structure. Most importantly, unlocking over €84M in cash flow over the next two years and establishing a framework of up to €200M provides us with the strategic firepower to further accelerate our B2B strategy, and the flexibility to pursue M&A that will further drive shareholder value.” The Bond was placed with a diverse group of institutional investors across and outside Europe. Trading of the Bond on the Open Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is scheduled to trade upon issuance and NASDAQ First North in Stockholm within six months of the issue date. The transaction was led by ABG Sundal Collier AB and Pareto Securities AS, Frankfurt Branch as global coordinators and joint bookrunners and UniCredit Bank GmbH as co-lead manager.
