Pets at Home Group Plc

Announcement of refinancing

Pets at Home Group Plc, the UK's leading specialist retailer of pet food, accessories, pet-related products and services, today announces the closing of a new financing agreement for a five year, £260m revolving credit facility. At current leverage, the facility carries a rate of LIBOR +1.5%.

The facility replaces the Group's existing £325m of drawn facilities, which at current leverage, carried a rate of LIBOR +1.9%.

The new facility is expected to reduce Group net financing expense on the income statement by approximately £2.7m per annum at current leverage. It is expected that the differential balance between the two facilities will be settled from the Group's existing cash resources. Capitalised fees associated with the previous facility will be reflected as an exceptional charge to the income statement of approximately £4.3m in FY16.

The banking syndicate for the new facility comprises 10 lenders.

Pets at Home will release its FY15 year end trading statement on 21st April 2015.
