(DD) got the highest credit rating for a P10-billion planned bond issuance in November as the company aims to expand its investor base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It secured the \u201cPRS Aaa\u201d with a stable outlook for the bond offer with a base amount of P5 billion and an oversubscription option of as much as P5 billion, it said in a stock exchange filing on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The P10-billion bond sale is the first tranche of DoubleDragon\u2019s P30-billion multiyear retail bond issuance. The tenor is at 5.5 years, while the interest rate is at 8%, with a P50,000 minimum denomination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cPRS Aaa\u201d rating is given to debt with marginal credit risk, while a stable outlook means that the rating is likely to remain unchanged in the next 12 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DoubleDragon\u2019s bond issuances for 2025 and 2026 will be priced at about 7% and 6% per annum, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe pipeline capital-raising issuances at this stage of DoubleDragon\u2019s growth are intended to further boost its financial position by increasing its cash position,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, DoubleDragon Chairman Edgar \u201cInjap\u201d J. Sia II said he expects the bond sale to attract retail investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSince the cycle of low interest rates has begun, this retail bond offering could be the very last time in many years at 8% per annum,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This offer would also accommodate retail investors who failed to participate in the recent DoubleDragon retail bond sale, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In July, the company finished a P10-billion retail bond offer that was fully subscribed five days before schedule. It was the initial segment of DoubleDragon\u2019s shelf-registered debt program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(News Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bworldonline.com\/corporate\/2024\/10\/25\/630528\/doubledragon-gets-triple-a-rating-for-first-tranche-of-p30-b-bond-program\/\">Business World<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\"><em><em><em>This report is prepared by PinoyInvestor\u2019s partner broker below.
