Credit institution NovaPay Credit LLC, a member of the non-banking financial group NovaPay, has registered with the National Securities and Stock Market Commission (NSSMC) an issue of interest-bearing C series bonds for UAH 100 million.

According to the prospectus, this bond issue has a maturity of two years instead of three years in the previous two issues, and coupon payments are made quarterly, while in issues “A” and “B” interest payments are made at the end of the circulation.

The interest rate is set at 20% per annum, as in the previous series, but only for the first year of circulation, while for the second year it will be additionally determined, but not higher than twice the discount rate, and announced by September 4, 2024.

The prospectus provides for the possibility of presenting the bonds for redemption from September 14 to 19, 2024 at par.

As in the two previous series, 100 thousand bonds with a par value of UAH 1000 are being issued.

It is noted that 20% of the funds raised are planned to be used for lending to legal entities, and 80% – to individuals.

The start date of the public offering is September 22, 2023, and the end date is September 21, 2024.

The company indicates that it will not use the services of an underwriter and will place the bonds through the PFTS stock exchange.

As reported, earlier this year, NovaPay Credit placed two issues of three-year bonds for UAH 100 million each.

In the first quarter of 2023, NovaPay Credit increased its authorized capital by UAH 120 million to UAH 175 million. NovaPay LLC remained the owner of the company with a 100% stake, and the beneficiaries are the owners of the Nova Poshta group of companies Vyacheslav Klimov and Volodymyr Popereshnyuk.
