Cebures Portada

Monterrey, Mexico, June 13, 2022.-Arca Continental, one of the world’s most relevant Coca-Cola bottlers, announced today that it successfully completed the issuance of Ps. 4,350 million inCertificados Bursátiles, or local notes.

The issuance consisted of two tranches, one for Ps. 1,150 million with a 7-year term at a fixed rate of 9.32%, and the other for Ps. 3,200 million with a 4-year term at a variable rate equivalent to TIIE plus 4 basis points.

Amid complex macroeconomic conditions with financial volatility stemming from high inflation throughout the markets, this was one of the most successful transactions in the Corporate Mexican market in recent years because of the low spread, generating excess demand nearly 3 times the amount placed.

Both issuances received Mexico’s highest credit ratings of “mxAAA” by S&P and “AAA(mex)” by Fitch Ratings.

“The successful placement of these bonds and the overwhelming demand confirm the trust that Arca Continental has built with a diverse shareholder base, reflecting the organization’s solid financial position and outstanding operating performance”, stated Emilio Marcos Charur, Chief Financial Officer of Arca Continental.

Through this issuance, among other initiatives, Arca Continental ratifies its commitment to making its financial structure more efficient while strengthening its balance sheet, striving to always be prepared for future investments.
