Implenia extends and increases syndicated loan - First industrial company in Switzerland with "green loan" component | Pioneering role in the construction industry | Credit facility now totals CHF 800 million

Dietlikon, 2 July 2018 - Implenia has extended and increased its current syndicated loan early on improved terms. The credit facility was successfully augmented by CHF 150 million to CHF 800 million with the company's current Swiss banking syndicate headed by UBS. Implenia has become Switzerland's first industrial company to partially link the applicable credit spread to its sustainability performance measured by Sustainalytics. The company's current rating from the world's top provider of research and ratings on environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues is an outstanding 74 points. This makes Implenia a leader in its sector and a pioneer of "green" loan financing.

The new term of the credit facility ends in December 2023 and can be extended by a maximum of two years. The loan was extended early as a result of the positive market environment and the Group's growth potential. The improved terms also confirm Implenia's attractive risk profile.

In its extended credit facility, Implenia sees a strong sign of confidence from the Swiss syndicate, which comprises 18 banks. The fact that Implenia's many years of sustainability efforts are now having a clear financial impact on its financing is an important and logical step.
