Memphis, June 22 - Steinhoff International Holdings Ltd. sold ZAR 1.5 billion of seven-year convertible bonds to yield 5.7% with an initial conversion premium of 32.5% - in the middle area of price talk - via bookrunner Barclays Capital Markets.

The issue, which launched early Thursday, priced against guidance for a coupon of 5.45% to 5.95% and a conversion premium range of 30% to 35%.
