Kiwibank looking to raise $150 million

Kiwibank is considering raising up to $150 million through the sale of perpetual preference shares to the public.  

Wednesday, March 10th 2010, 3:58PM

A related company of Kiwibank, to be called Kiwi Capital Securities is looking at selling $100m of the perpetual callable non-cumulative preference shares, to be known as Kiwi Income Securities, to the public with the option to accept over subscriptions of up to $50 million.

The shares will not entitle holders to any voting rights in Kiwibank, and have only limited voting rights in relation to Kiwi Capital Securities, whose ultimate parent is New Zealand Post. 

The dividend rate applying to the shares will be fixed for the initial five years and then reset for subsequent five-yearly periods at the margin plus the swap rate applying at the time. Dividends will be paid quarterly basis and are non-cumulative.

The proceeds from the issue of the shares will provide tier 1 capital to Kiwibank.

The shares will have no maturity date. They may be called on the fifth and 10th anniversary of their issue date and quarterly thereafter.

An announcement of the margin and the minimum dividend rate for the shares is expected to be made on or around the opening of the offer which is anticipated to be in early April 2010 with full details of the issue to be contained in an Investment Statement and the Prospectus.
