The new debenture bonds comprise five tranches of up to 10 years with either fixed or floating interest rates. The high demand on the part of investors had prompted Grammer, an automotive components supplier and global market leader in seating systems for commercial vehicles, to increase the originally planned volume by 60 percent. The issue of the debenture bonds forms a systematic part of Grammer's long-term funding strategy which, among other things, is aiming to achieve a broader investor base and a further improvement in the maturities structure. Accordingly, the investor base includes numerous domestic and international financial institutions. "With the successful placement of the new debenture bonds, we have been able to utilize very advantageous terms to put the recent acquisition of the Reum Group on a favorable financial footing. At the same time, we have been able to additionally widen the scope that we already had for financing our planned growth and future strategic investments," said Hartmut Müller, Chief Executive Officer of Grammer AG. "The strong demand and the fact that the new debenture bonds were substantially oversubscribed underscore the stability of our group finance and our company's appeal to investors," added Gérard Cordonnier, Chief Financial Officer of Grammer AG.
