Sunac China Secures Creditor Approval for $9 Billion Debt Restructuring Plan
-
Creditors of Sunac China Holdings approved the company's $9 billion offshore debt restructuring plan. Sunac is the first major Chinese developer to get approval for such a debt overhaul.
-
98.3% of creditors participating in the vote approved Sunac's restructuring plan proposed earlier this year.
-
The plan involves exchanging part of Sunac's debt into convertible bonds backed by its Hong Kong-listed shares, along with new 2-9 year notes.
-
Sunac raised the cap on mandatory convertible bonds to $2.75 billion from $2.2 billion due to overwhelming creditor interest.
-
The debt restructuring aims to reduce Sunac's cash flow pressure over the next two years, though uncertainties remain on its implementation.
