"Restart Energy One is in a period of transformation and continuous growth. We aim to be at the forefront of Romania's energy transition by offering complete and innovative solutions to our clients. With the support of the funds raised from this new bond issuance, we will be able to accelerate the development of our projects, expand our client portfolio, and increase the share of green energy supplied by developing our own photovoltaic parks. The bonds previously issued have allowed us to initiate essential projects and increase our operating capacity. Furthermore, bond issuances are a strategic way to raise the necessary capital for development without affecting the existing financial balance, thus providing us with the stability needed for our strategic plans," stated Alexandru Domuta, co-founder and CEO of Restart Energy One.
This is the company's second bond issuance after the one in 2021 when the company raised RON 164 million from investors. The new bond offer entails the issuance of up to 65,000 nominative, dematerialized, unconditional, unsecured, and non-convertible corporate bonds with a total value of up to €6.5 million, a nominal value of €100 per bond and a maturity of 60 months (5 years) from the issuance date. The bonds have a coupon rate of 9.5%, with coupon payments made semi-annually.
The capital raised from investors will be directed towards the continued accelerated development of the company in its main business segments. Restart Energy One has shifted its focus from energy supply to energy transition in the past two years. This step was taken to capitalize on the opportunities in the energy transition sector and reduce the company's business exposure to legislative and economic instability in the energy supply market. Through this process, the company has diversified its competencies to offer clients an ecosystem of divisions across the entire energy chain. The company continues its strategy of accessing the financing capacity provided by the capital market, which it considers a desirable option for Romanian companies to develop.
Therefore, in the coming years, Restart Energy One aims to consolidate its business in the rooftop segment, complete and commercialize Utility Scale projects developed through SPVs, expand its portfolio of large and very large industrial clients, and increase the share of green energy supplied by developing its own photovoltaic parks.
The offer of the new corporate bonds is brokered by Tradeville S.A.
