Information von Guess über den Kreditvertrag
Guess informiert wie folgt über den Kreditvertrag:
Guess?, Inc. (NYSE: GES) announced that it has entered into a €250 million revolving credit facility through its wholly-owned Swiss subsidiary, Guess Europe Sagl. The facility has an initial term of five years, with an option to extend the maturity date by up to two years and an option to expand the facility by up to €100 million, subject to certain conditions. The new facility replaced certain short-term borrowing arrangements with various banks totaling €120 million.
The Guess Sustainability Plan focuses on three key pillars: 1. Operating with Integrity, 2. Empowering our People, and 3. Protecting the Environment. In line with the third pillar, the interest rate for the new facility will be subject to an annual adjustment based on the achievement of specific sustainability goals aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, increasing the use of sustainably sourced materials and increasing the penetration of the Company’s Guess ECO products.
Carlos Alberini, Chief Executive Officer of Guess?, Inc., commented, “Our new €250 million European credit facility reflects the importance of the European region to our overall Company as our largest segment, as well as our lenders’ confidence in our strategy. We remain highly committed to our goal of protecting the environment and see sustainability as fully integrated into our operations. This new credit facility will not only provide incremental access to longer term capital but will also align financial incentives with our sustainability goals. In our Company, we continue to make every decision and take every action with the long-term in mind.”
