As noted in a statement on the Irish Stock Exchange, the company previously made another monthly dividend payment on June 2 in the amount of UAH 51.60 million.

Applications to participate in the tender are being accepted through June 17, and settlements are scheduled for June 24.

Bonds maturing in February 2027 with a coupon rate of 9.625% per annum were issued for $300 million. Their redemption is related to the fact that on April 24, 2025, VFU announced the accrual of dividends to its shareholder in the amount of UAH 660.245 million ($15.9 million at the exchange rate specified in the announcement) for 2024. In accordance with National Bank restrictions, these dividends will be paid in separate monthly installments in hryvnia, each amounting to EUR1 million. The company emphasized that, under the terms of the bond issue, it must in such a case offer all bondholders the opportunity to submit an application to sell their bonds for an amount equal to the dividends paid outside Ukraine.

In the first two tenders, mobile operator “Vodafone Ukraine” repurchased bonds in an amount equivalent to EUR1 million.

The company received bids totaling $127.14 million for this amount. Some of the bonds were returned to their holders due to the inability to split the face value, while the rest were accepted with a scaling factor of 0.1150681.

In the fifth through tenth bond redemption tenders held from December to May, the price was again set at 98%: in the fifth tender, with bids of $1.165 million, the scaling factor was set at 0.01901; in the sixth, with bids of $1.475 million, at 0.04234; in the seventh, with bids of $1.185 million, at 0.3246; for the eighth, with bids of $1.18 million – 0.0333333; for the ninth, with bids of $1.16 million – 0.449; and for the tenth, with bids of $1.17 million – 1.0 (bids totaling $2.32 million were submitted).
