Successful Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility Refinancing

Micro Focus International plc ("Micro Focus" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has successfully priced and allocated a Euro 750 million and a USD 750 million Senior Secured Term Loan B (together, the "Facilities"). The new 5-year Facilities will be used by Micro Focus to fully refinance its existing Senior Secured Term Loan B Euro facility due June 2024 as well as partially refinance the existing Senior Secured Term Loan B USD facilities due June 2024 (the "Transaction").

Final pricing for the new 5-year Facilities is 4.00% above EURIBOR (subject to 0% floor) at an original issue discount of 0.5% on the Euro denominated tranche, and 4.00% above SOFR and CSA (subject to 0.5% floor) at an original issue discount of 1.0% on the US Dollar denominated tranche.

Following the consummation of the Transaction, the average maturity of Micro Focus's debt capital structure has been extended from 2.7 years to 3.6 years.

The transaction was led by JP Morgan in conjunction with HSBC, Citi, Natwest, Bank of America and Goldman Sachs.

In addition, Micro Focus has extended its Revolving Credit Facilities ("RCF") by 18 months to December 2026, on substantially the same terms as before except that Micro Focus now has greater flexibility to utilise the facility. The $250m RCF was implemented with the same group of banks.

Numis acted as Debt Adviser to Micro Focus on these transactions.

Matt Ashley, Chief Financial Officer:

"This transaction demonstrates the strength of the Micro Focus proposition and the cash generative qualities of our recurring revenue model. We would like to thank our debt investors for their continued support as we look to deliver on our strategic priorities over the next two years and beyond."
