Poor response to Vedanta refi


„ Loans Five-year facility of US$575m attracts just two banks in general syndication

A five-year amortising loan of US$575m for
London-listed VEDANTA RESOURCES met with a
poor response before closing in December
after just two banks joined in general
syndication.
Federal Bank and Punjab National Bank
were the lenders, with a combined US$80m,
in general syndication, meaning mandated
lead arrangers, bookrunners and underwriters
Barclays, Credit Suisse, DBS Bank, First Abu
Dhabi Bank and Standard Chartered took
US$99m each.
The outcome was not surprising due to
the timing of the loan, which was signed in
December after having been launched into
syndication in mid-September. It followed a
US$651m four-tranche loan for Cairn India
Holdings, which merged with Vedanta last
year.
Cairn India’s loan refinanced all debt
at Vedanta wholly owned unit Twin Star
Holdings, also the borrower on the latest
borrowing.
The US$651m four-tranche loan for Cairn
India comprises a US$155.125m three-year
facility A, a US$93m five-year facility B, a
US$309.875m five-year facility C and a
US$93m five-year facility D. Only facilities
A and C were syndicated to foreign lenders,
while Indian banks took up tranches B and D.
Seven banks joined tranches A and C, while
one Indian lender came forward for tranches

B and D. Axis, Barclays, Citigroup, Credit
Suisse, First Abu Dhabi Bank, ICICI Bank and
StanChart were the MLABs on the entire
financing.
Interestingly, Barclays and Credit Suisse
ended up with zero final holds, a rarity in
Asia syndicated loans. Axis Bank and ICICI
underwrote tranches B and D.
Banks joining both facilities A and C as
MLAs on a pro-rata basis were offered a
blended top-level all-in of 233.4bp. The
blended interest margin is 205bp and the
blended remaining average life is 3.17 years.
On the other hand, Vedanta’s US$575m
loan did not attract lenders, despite offering
a richer top-level all-in of 345.46bp based on
a margin of 310bp over Libor and a remaining
average life of 4.23 years.
Vedanta’s loan complemented US$1bn of
seven-year non-call four senior unsecured
bonds it completed in early August. The
bonds were priced at 6.125%, inside initial
guidance of 6.375%. The five leads on the
loan, along with JP Morgan, were joint global
coordinators, joint lead managers and joint
bookrunners on the bonds.
Proceeds from the loan and the bonds were
used to refinance debt, including a tender
offer Vedanta announced in late July for two
outstanding bonds – US$774.8m of 6.0%
2019s and US$900m of 8.25% 2021s.
