HMS Bergbau AG Announces EUR 50 Million Bond to Boost Growth

HMS Bergbau AG, a prominent commodities trading company in Germany, plans to issue a bond worth up to EUR 50 million. The bond aims to enhance the company's growth trajectory. It offers an annual coupon rate of 8.0%, with semi-annual interest payments, and a maturity of five years, set to be priced between 98% and 100%. The order phase runs from June 9 to June 17, 2026, targeting institutional investors exclusively.

The proceeds will support general corporate financing, with a focus on expanding in commodity trading, notably in liquid fuels and ore products. The strategy includes increasing trade volumes in burgeoning markets like China, India, and the ASEAN region while pre-financing production.

HMS Bergbau AG's growth has accelerated following the initiation of coal mines in Botswana and South Africa and an exclusive chrome ore offtake agreement with Mantengu Ltd. The move forms part of a broader growth agenda, supported by strong financial figures for 2026 and expected significant sales and EBITDA projections.
