The listing of the bonds of LHV Group follows the company’s public offering of bonds to retail and institutional investors in Estonia. The offering was oversubscribed 3.2 times. The size of the bond issue is EUR 20 million. The bonds have a nominal value of EUR 1,000 and carry an annual coupon rate of 6% which is paid out quarterly.
The current bond issue was the first tranche of LHV Group’s bond program during which the company plans to issue bonds for EUR 45 million in total.
„LHV first listed its bonds on the Baltic bond list in 2015. Similarly to previous LHV’s offerings, the results of this bond offering proved that the investors’ confidence in LHV is high. On the one hand this shows how attractive LHV is for investors and on the other hand, the large number of subscribers illustrates that the Estonian investment culture is making steady progress,“ said Kaarel Ots, CEO of Nasdaq Tallinn.

In total, 1700 investors subscribed for the bonds in the amount of EUR 51 million,” said Madis Toomsalu, the CEO of LHV Group. “This bond offering brought us about 1300 new bond investors, and in total, LHV Group now has more than 2200 unique bond investors and approximately 5000 shareholders.”
