("HICL" or "the Company" and, together with its subsidiaries,
"the Group"), the London-listed infrastructure investment company
managed by InfraRed Capital Partners Limited ("InfraRed" or "the
Investment Manager".)
New Long-dated Letter of Credit Facility
HICL is pleased to announce it has agreed an innovative new
Letter of Credit Facility ("LCF") to support the Company's existing
and future commitments to projects in construction. The facility is
initially sized at GBP60m in line with the Company's current
commitments, with an uncommitted GBP225m accordion, and a six-year
maturity to 31 December 2026 to more appropriately match the
long-dated tenor of construction commitments. The use of the LCF in
this manner enables greater flexibility for shorter-term deployment
within the capacity of HICL's existing GBP400m Revolving Credit
Facility ("RCF"), to support execution of the Company's
pipeline.
The new LCF will rank pari passu alongside the current RCF and
will be used to issue longer-term letters of credit and, where
necessary, draw cash to settle these obligations. The LCF is
provided by Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and ING.
Harry Seekings, Head of Infrastructure at InfraRed, said: "We
are pleased to have secured this innovative facility to match the
tenor of HICL's longer-dated commitments with an appropriate debt
profile, further enhancing the Company's balance sheet. Moreover,
this facility provides HICL with additional flexibility to
prudently pursue appropriate investment opportunities as they
arise."
