PRESS RELEASE
NOVEMBER 20, 2025 Imerys strengthens financial structure with successful placing of €600 million senior unsecured notes and tender offer On November 13, 2025, Imerys successfully placed €600 million new senior unsecured notes under its EMTN Programme. The notes have a 7-year maturity and carry a fixed annual coupon of 4.00%. This transaction attracted strong demand from a diversified base of institutional investors and was largely oversubscribed, underlining the Group’s solid credit profile and investors’ confidence in its business model and financial strength. Settlement and delivery will take place on November 21, 2025, the date on which the notes are expected to be admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. In conjunction with the new issuance, Imerys completed a cash tender offer on its outstanding €600 million 1.50% notes maturing on January 15, 2027. Imerys accepted offers in an aggregate amount of €256.5 million. With this proactive liability management operation, the remaining outstanding amount of the existing notes now stands at €343.5 million. All existing notes purchased by Imerys will be cancelled. The settlement date for the tender offer is expected to be November 24, 2025.
