CANAL+ ISSUES SCHULDSCHEIN LOAN

CANAL+ SUCCESSFULLY ISSUES €285 MILLION SCHULDSCHEIN LOAN

Issy-les-Moulineaux, 29 July 2025

CANAL+ SA (LSE: CAN, the "Company" or the "Group"), the global media and entertainment company, announces that it has completed the Group's inaugural debt facility since listing on the London Stock Exchange in December 2024, issuing its first Schuldschein loan (a private placement loan issued under German law) raising over €285 million in financing.

The issuance was highly oversubscribed with an orderbook consisting of high-quality French and international investors, demonstrating strong interest and confidence of investors in the financial profile and strategic direction of CANAL+. Due to the high level of demand, which facilitated pricing at the tight end of the spread range, the total financing package was increased, from an initial launch volume of €125 million to a final volume of €285 million. The attractive pricing and scale of the Schuldschein loan will improve CANAL+'s overall cost of funds.

The Schuldschein loan is comprised of euro-denominated tranches with maturities of three and five years at fixed and floating rates. Funds raised from the issuance will be used for general corporate purposes including the refinancing of existing indebtedness.

BNP Paribas, Commerzbank, Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank and Société Générale were the arrangers of the Schuldschein issuance.

Amandine Ferré, Chief Financial Officer, commented:

"We were pleased with the high level of demand for our first Schuldschein loan, the over-subscription illustrates confidence in our strategy and our robust financial profile. The attractive pricing ensures this issuance will positively impact our overall cost of funds and sets a positive precedent."
