…Emzor Pharmaceuticals Lists Debut Offering<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i>Nigerian Exchange (NGX) Limited continues to be the preferred listing destination for companies seeking to raise capital via corporate bonds, including private companies looking to raise public capital.<\/p>\n

One of such private companies taking advantage of this opportunity is Emzor Pharmaceuticals which has listed its \u20a613.7billion 5-Year Series 1 Fixed rate Senior Unsecured Bond, due 2026 exclusively on the floor of NGX today, 21 April 2021. The listing is the first public instrument issued by Emzor Pharmaceuticals and is part of its larger \u20a650billion Debt Issuance Programme.<\/p>\n

At the time of its issuance on 20 January 2021, the bond saw solid interest from a diverse pool of institutional investors, and was priced at a coupon rate of 10.00% per annum. With this listing, members of the general public who invested in the bond can now sell their investments, while those who wish to invest can do so.<\/span><\/p>

Speaking on the significance and success of the bond issue, the Group Managing Director, Emzor Pharmaceuticals, Dr. Stella Okoli, OON, commented: \u201cThis first-time bond issuance is a fantastic achievement for Emzor and is in line with our commitment to facilitate unlimited wellness by delivering quality and affordable medicines for all. The capital raised will, therefore, drive and accelerate our expansion plans, delivering strong growth and margin improvement. We recognise the efforts of the investor community ensuring the success of this bond issuance and commit to uphold their confidence in us as we deliver on our long- term growth strategy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, Emzor Pharmaceutical has become a household name and continues to establish its footprint as a leading manufacturer of high-quality pharmaceutical and medical consumables in Nigeria.\u00a0 Facilitated by lead issuing house, Renaissance Securities (Nigeria) Limited, and joint issuing house, Afrinvest (West Africa) Limited, the debut offering is without a doubt, testament to the company\u2019s growth potentials, and the level confidence placed on the brand by the investing community.<\/span><\/p>\n

On its part, NGX Limited continues to deliver on its commitment to provide a platform for issuers and investors to meet their investment objectives. Just a week ago, the market witnessed the BUA Cement\u2019s debut listing with a \u20a6115billion Bond issue, the largest of many corporate debt issuances in the history of the Nigerian capital market.<\/span><\/p>\n
