The bond was arranged and subscribed by Banco BPI, S.A..

According to António Almeida, Hovione's CFO, "we issued this bond to strengthen our balance sheet as we embark in a new phase of significant capital expansion. We issued a USD denominated bond because the majority of our sales is in the USA".

The bond is registered as "Hovione 2018-2033", has a nominal amount of $50 million US dollars and a maturity of 15 years.

"2019 is the year when we celebrate our 60th Anniversary and we are pleased that the market offers us good terms for a bond with a 15 years' maturity. We are building a business for the long term." said Guy Villax, Hovione's CEO.

The decision to expand our production capacity follows growing customer demand since, as a specialist integrated CDMO, Hovione is increasingly being chosen as a solution partner from Drug Substance (http://www.hovione.com/products-and-services/contract-manufacturing-services/drug-substance) to Drug Product (http://www.hovione.com/products-and-services/contract-manufacturing-services/drug-product). Hovione is committed to listen to customers and to continue supporting their evolving needs. Of the 59 drugs approved by the US FDA in 2018, 4 of them had their process developed in our labs and are produced in our plants.

The bond is registered in Euronext with the ISIN code: PTHOVCOM0006.
