PostNL completes €200 million revolving credit facility
The Hague, 17 December 2021 – PostNL has successfully completed a five-year €200 million revolving credit facility, including two one-year extension options.
This facility will replace the former €400 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, which would expire on 10 April 2022. With the facility, PostNL secures access to committed future financing capacity in line with its financing strategy at reduced financing costs and updated terms and conditions. PostNL's aim is to be the driving force for sustainable logistics in the Benelux. Therefore, the margin, to be paid by PostNL, is partly dependent on the successful execution of its emission reduction strategy. For this RCF PostNL uses two main indicators in the performance evaluation, the carbon efficiency of its own operations and the share of emission-free delivery in the last-mile.
The facility can be used for general funding purposes.
