Successful Bond Issue for Teleperformance

Regulatory News:

Teleperformance (Paris:TEP), a leading global group in digitally integrated business services today announced it has successfully completed a €500 million bond issue, maturing in 2027, with an annual coupon of 0.25%.

This is the first issue carried out by Teleperformance under an EMTN (Euro Medium Term Note) program approved by the French financial markets authority (Autorité des marchés financiers). The net proceeds of the issue will be used to meet the company's general financing needs and to refinance the Health Advocate acquisition, which is expected to be completed in first-quarter 2021. The transaction will also allow Teleperformance, now a regular bond issuer, to reduce its financing costs, extend the maturity of its debt profile and diversify its financial resources.

The success of this issue under exceptional conditions, more than three times oversubscribed by a diversified, high-quality investor base, confirms the market’s confidence in the creditworthiness of the Group. Standard & Poor’s has recently confirmed Teleperformance’s investment grade rating of BBB-, with a stable outlook, the highest credit rating received in the customer experience management industry.

BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole CIB, HSBC and Société Générale acted as active joint lead managers.

Olivier Rigaudy, Teleperformance Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, said: “The success of this third bond issue reflects the continuity of our refinancing operations under very attractive rate conditions while extending the maturity of our debt profile. It also reflects, once again, the strength of Teleperformance's development model, its resilience as well as the quality of its financial structure.”
