Douglas will make first cash interest payment on PIK notes

Chicago, Oct. 17 – Douglas GmbH reported that robust liquidity is enabling the company to make its first cash payment on its PIK notes, according to a press release.

The company refinanced the Kirk Beauty SUN GmbH notes in 2021 with a cash coupon of 8¼% and a PIK coupon of 9%.

The payment date was Oct. 16.

The next payment date is April 15, 2024.

“Douglas has always stated that interest on the Kirk Beauty SUN notes will be PIK’ed until our liquidity buffer and projections give us confidence that we can pay cash interest,” chief financial officer Mark Langer said in the press release.

The cash payment, the company noted, supports its deleveraging plan and represents interest cost savings of more than €4 million per year.

The borrower is a perfume and cosmetics retailer based in Dusseldorf, Germany.
