CONCLUSION OF DEBT REFINANCING AND RESTRUCTURING PROCESS
Stakeholders are referred to Murray & Roberts’ annual results announcement on 31 August
2022, where it reported that the Murray & Roberts Group (“Group”) was in the process of
refinancing its South African overdraft facilities (“Existing South African Debt Facilities”) with
its existing lenders comprising Standard Bank, Absa, Nedbank and RMB (“SA Lenders”).
The directors of the Board are pleased to announce that following negotiation with the SA
Lenders, the Group has successfully concluded the refinancing and upsizing of its Existing
South African Debt Facilities from R1.675 billion to R2.0 billion. The salient features of the new
facilities are as follows:
• Senior secured term loan facility
o Amount: R1.35 billion
o Term: 18 months
• Senior secured overdraft facilities
o Amount: R650 million
o Term: Repayable on-demand
The new facilities have terms and conditions that are typical for a transaction of this nature.
The new facilities provide the Group with additional liquidity to support its South African
operations and more certainty in terms of debt maturity, whilst it progresses the deleveraging
plan in order to reduce overall debt to an appropriate level and achieve a sustainable long-
term capital structure.
