The bonds are unsecured obligations of the issuer. They benefit from a guarantee, in a maximum amount of EUR 25,000,000, provided by INVL Renewable Energy Fund I, a well‑established fund with a portfolio of renewable energy projects. This means that if the issuer fails to meet obligations, the guarantor is legally bound to fulfill them.

Proceeds will be used to:

  • Primarily refinance the existing bridge loans (provided by EBRD and Eiffel Investment Group) of Danube Solar Five S.A., a Group SPV operating a 60 MWp solar PV power plant in Dolj County, Romania (Pielești and Robănești). The whole issue is intended for this refinancing.
  • To the extent proceeds exceed the amount required for the Danube Solar Five S.A. refinancing, remaining proceeds may be applied to refinance other Group SPVs (operating in Romania), general working capital, or general corporate purposes including financing development, construction and operation of renewable energy projects.
    The Danube Solar Five S.A. project (construction completed; in trial operation pending issuance of the production licence by the Romanian energy regulator, expected June 2026) is expected to contribute to stable cash flows supporting interest and principal payments.

Issuer’s call:

  • Possible from 22 December 2026 (6 months after issue), with at least 14 calendar days’ notice. Early redemption is not permitted during the first 6 months.
  • Redemption price: nominal value + accrued interest.
    • If redeemed after 22 December 2026 but on or before 22 June 2027: +1.00% premium.
    • If redeemed after 22 June 2027: no premium.

Example:
If you hold EUR 10,000 nominal and the issuer calls in April 2027 (within the premium window: after 22 Dec 2026, on or before 22 Jun 2027):

  • You receive EUR 10,000 + accrued interest to the redemption date (e.g. ~EUR 533 for ~8 months at 8%) + EUR 100 premium (1%).
