New Issue: Moy Park prices downsized £200 million 6¼% seven-year notes at par

By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., May 23 - Ireland-based poultry producer Moy Park (Bondco) plc priced a £200 million issue of seven-year senior notes (B1) at par to yield 6¼% on Friday, according to a market source.

The yield printed at the wide end of the 6% to 6¼% yield talk.

The transaction was downsized from £250 million with the withdrawal of a proposed £50 million tranche of three-year floating-rate notes.

Barclays, Deutsche Bank and Goldman Sachs International were the lead managers.

Proceeds will be used to fund a distribution to Marfrig Group for repayment of some of its debt, as well as to pay a deferred consideration for the purchase of the Keystone Foods assets in Europe, and for general corporate purposes.
