Sanoma Corporation has signed a EUR 600 million syndicated revolving credit facility with a group of nine relationship banks. The facility has a maturity of five years. The margin depends on the leverage of the borrower, the initial margin being 1.5% over Euribor.

The new facility is replacing the existing EUR 802 million syndicated revolving credit facility.
