HMS Bergbau AG (ISIN: DE0006061104, WKN: 606110), a leading independent commodities trading and marketing company based in Germany, has successfully placed a corporate bond with a volume of EUR 50.0 million and a maturity date of June 2, 2030. The corporate bond 2025/2030 (ISIN DE000A4DFTU1/ WKN A4DFTU) has an interest coupon of 10.0% p.a., with semi-annual interest payments. The bond has a nominal denomination of EUR 1,000.00. The bond was placed with institutional investors from Europe as part of an international private placement. Due to very high investor demand, the bond was significantly oversubscribed, which led to a considerable repartition of subscription orders. The corporate bond is expected to be traded on the Open Market (Quotation Board) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange from June 2, 2025.

The inflow of funds from the bond issue will be used in particular to further expand HMS Bergbau AG’s existing trading business in Asia.
