Wiesbaden, October 4, 2023 - Jung, DMS & Cie. Pool GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of JDC Group AG, has decided to issue a five-year secured corporate bond with an annual interest rate of 6.75% - 7.25%.

The public offering will be made in the Federal Republic of Germany ("Germany"), the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg ("Luxembourg") and the Republic of Austria ("Austria") through the subscription facility "DirectPlace" of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and additionally through an advertisement in Luxembourg. The accompanying securities prospectus is expected to be approved by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier ("CSSF") in the next few days. Subsequently, a two-week subscription and exchange period is planned. The issue includes a 1:1 exchange offer to the holders of the Jung, DMS & Cie. Pool GmbH Bond 2019/2024 at the nominal amount plus accrued interest as well as an additional amount in cash of EUR 10.

The annual interest rate is expected to be determined after the end of the offer period, or possibly even before, on the basis of the subscription orders received in the public offering or in the private placement, and will be published subsequently.
