PROSUS PRICES NEW 5-YEAR, 10-YEAR AND 30-YEAR TRANCHES USD BONDS AND 4-YEAR, 8-YEAR AND 12-YEAR TRANCHES EUR BONDS

On 11 and 12 January 2022, Prosus respectively priced USD and EUR notes in an aggregate principal amount totaling US$5.25 billion equivalent under its Global Medium-Term Note Programme.  These issuances consist of US$1 billion 3.257% notes due 2027, US$1 billion 4.193% notes due 2032, US$1.25 billion 4.987% notes due 2052, €500 million 1.207% notes due 2026, €600 million 2.085% notes due 2030, and €650 million 2.778% notes due 2034 (the "Bonds").

The group has grown and diversified its business in the past couple of years, meaningfully increasing the size and value of its core segments of Classifieds, Food Delivery, Payments & Fintech and Edtech and thereby enhancing its credit profile. Over that same period, the group has considered it strategically important and financially prudent to make efficient use of the increased debt capacity built into our credit ratings.  In line with our prudent liquidity management policy, the offerings will provide financial flexibility to pursue our growth initiatives both organically and through acquisitions, a strategy that has led to significant net asset value accretion for the group.

On 14 December 2021, Prosus's long-term rating was upgraded by S&P to BBB. It has a Baa3 rating from Moody's. It is expected that this financing will be ratings neutral. 

The offerings are expected to close on 19 January 2022, in each case subject to customary closing conditions.

Application has been made to The Irish Stock Exchange plc trading as Euronext Dublin for the Bonds to be admitted to listing on the Official List and traded on the Global Exchange Market of Euronext Dublin.
