Scatec’s share of proceeds from the refinancing, based on its 45 per cent
ownership in the power plants, amounts to ZAR 540 million (USD 36 million).
Key amended terms include increased debt amounts, reduced margins, increased
tenors, and release of cash from debt reserve accounts, implying minor impacts
to expected future dividends from the power plants.
Pursuing refinancing opportunities is part of Scatec’s strategy for continuous
operational and financial improvements to optimise project returns and cash
flows.
The refinancing will further benefit the South African authorities through a
50:50 profit split between the shareholders of the power plants and the
authorities, in accordance with the Refinancing Protocol issued by the
Department of Mineral Resources and Energy.
“The refinancing of our South African power plants demonstrates the funding and
value creating potential of our operating portfolio when local financial markets
become more mature. We are very pleased to have improved financing terms and net
present values for the projects, while contributing to society through profit-
sharing mechanisms,” says CFO Mikkel Tørud.
