AngloGold issues R1.2bn bond offering
JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Gold major AngloGold Ashanti on Friday announced a bond offering of $1.25-billion in notes at 8.5%.
The offer for the notes, which are due in 2020, would close on Tuesday.
The notes would be unsecured and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the company.
AngloGold said in a statement that the proceeds, which were estimated at $1.235-billion after deductions, would be used for general corporate purposes and the repayment of “other indebtedness”.
Citigroup Global Markets, Deutsche Bank Securities and Goldman, Sachs & Co - which were mandated mid-July to “organise a series of investor meetings” ahead of its plans to access the capital markets, with a US dollar senior notes offering before the end of the year - were appointed joint bookrunners for, and underwriters of, the offering.
AngloGold announced earlier this week it would buy back about $743-million in convertible bonds – due in 2014 with an interest rate of 3.5% - at a 1.5% premium.
