LENDINVEST ANNOUNCES LAUNCH OF 8.25% NOTES DUE 2030
14 October 2025
LendInvest Secured Income III plc (LEI: 213800MARSG713FSSU68) (the "Issuer"), an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of LendInvest plc ("LendInvest" or the "Guarantor"), today announces the launch of a new series of 8.25 per cent Notes due 2030 (the "New Bonds") under its £1,000,000,000 Euro Medium Term Note Programme (the "Programme").
At the same time, the Issuer and Guarantor are proposing an Exchange Offer to holders of the outstanding 11.5 per cent Notes due 2026 and 6.5 per cent Notes due 2027, each issued by LendInvest Secured Income II plc, inviting them to exchange their holdings for the New Bonds.
This issuance marks another step in the LendInvest Group's long-term strategy to broaden access to property finance asset investment, in a fast-growing asset class traditionally dominated by institutions.
New Bond Key Terms
The New Bonds carry a fixed coupon of 8.25 per cent per annum, payable semi-annually over their 5-year intended term, and are expected to mature in 2030. On maturity, they will be redeemed at 100 per cent of their nominal value.
They are backed by a first floating charge over a pool of Eligible Loans, which primarily comprise UK residential, buy-to-let, bridging and development loans originated and managed by LendInvest. The New Bonds are subject to a partial 20 per cent guarantee from LendInvest plc, as defined in the Base Prospectus.
The collateral pool is subject to defined criteria, including a maximum weighted-average loan-to-value (WALTV) ratio of 77.5 per cent. The Eligible Loans are supported by LendInvest's existing underwriting and credit-risk processes, which have been applied to more than £8 billion of property lending since 2008.
The minimum initial subscription amount is £1,000, with multiples of £100 thereafter. Investors may sell the New Bonds on the open market through their stockbroker.
Exchange Offer
Holders of the Existing Bonds can participate in the Exchange Offer through their broker. Full details, including the final coupon and exchange ratio, are available in the Exchange Offer Memorandum and Prospectus.
A base prospectus dated 13 October 2025 and an exchange offer memorandum and prospectus dated 14 October 2025 have been prepared and made available to the public in accordance with the UK Prospectus Regulation. These documents, together with the final terms relating to the New Bonds, are available for viewing at:
