SES

Luxembourg’s SES SA, which likes to describe itself as the world’s only multi-orbit satellite player, has announced the successful launch of senior unsecured fixed rates due 2029 for a total amount of 750 billion euro.

The seven-year notes bear a coupon of 3.50 percent and were priced at 99.725 percent of their nominal value, representing a credit spread of 175 basis points and a yield-to-maturity of 3.55 percent.

Luxembourg’s space sector is about to undergo a top level strategic review, with a reassessment to be made of the ambitious approach taken in recent years. This takes place against the background of the country’s satellite giant SES SA also reorienting itself.
