Grupa Azoty Agrees Term Sheet for Long-Term Debt Restructuring

Grupa Azoty has taken another step in its financial stabilization and long-term debt restructuring process. The preliminary key terms and conditions of the planned restructuring of the Group’s financial liabilities, signed with its financing institutions on 1 June 2026, establish the framework for concluding the final long-term financing agreement.

The term sheet was signed with PKO Bank Polski, Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego, ING Bank Śląski, Erste Bank Polska, CaixaBank, Banco Santander, Erste Factoring, ING Faktoring, Pekao Faktoring, the European Investment Bank and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Together with the Company, these institutions are working to develop Grupa Azoty’s long-term financing structure.

‘We are entering a new phase of discussions concerning the future financing of Grupa Azoty. Together with our financing partners, we have developed a framework and a roadmap towards a long-term financing agreement for the Group. These arrangements include, among other things, a new debt repayment schedule and the planned share issue, creating the conditions necessary to implement investments and gradually return to the development of our core business,’ said Marcin Celejewski, President of the Management Board of Grupa Azoty.

The preliminary terms set out in the term sheet include, among others:

  • a new debt repayment schedule providing for the repayment of 25% of the financing by the end of 2030;
  • repayment of the remaining 75% at final maturity, based on a report to be submitted by the Group to the financing institutions by 30 June 2029, outlining how the Group intends to refinance the liabilities falling due at final maturity;
  • a grace period on principal repayments until 30 June 2027;
  • implementation of a cash sweep mechanism enabling a portion of excess cash generated by the Group to be used for early repayment of the restructured debt;
  • the establishment of security over the assets of selected Grupa Azoty companies;
  • maintenance of agreed financial covenants and performance indicators;
  • preparation and delivery of information materials to the financing institutions regarding the Group’s reorganization process and investment plans;
  • completion by 31 July 2026 of the planned share issue approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting of Grupa Azoty on 13 March 2026.       

At the same time, the Group continues to implement measures aimed at achieving a lasting reduction in its debt levels. One of the key elements of this process is the planned transaction involving GA Polyolefins and cooperation with Orlen, which is expected to significantly improve the Group’s financial position and reduce its indebtedness.

In the Management Board’s view, the signing of the term sheet represents an important milestone in strengthening Grupa Azoty’s long-term financial stability and increases the predictability of its future business and investment activities.
