Meituan (3690) announced a proposal to issue RMB senior notes, with the net proceeds primarily intended for refinancing existing offshore debt and other general corporate purposes. According to foreign media reports, Meituan aims to raise funds equivalent to approximately $1 billion.
Bloomberg cited sources familiar with the matter, stating that Meituan plans to raise funds equivalent to about $1 billion by issuing offshore RMB bonds, joining a growing number of companies issuing Dim Sum bonds.
The sources said that during a conference call with investors on Monday, Meituan representatives indicated that the company had received approval from Chinese regulators to raise additional funds overseas but decided to retain part of the quota to refinance USD bonds when market conditions are favorable. Due to the confidential nature of the matter, the sources requested anonymity. They added that the quota will expire in September next year.
The sources stated that this Dim Sum bond issuance is expected to be priced on Tuesday. They noted that the proceeds from Meituan's second Dim Sum bond issuance will be mainly used to refinance offshore RMB loans.
