BENTELER Group secures long-term financing

Salzburg, July 3, 2025. The BENTELER Group has secured its financing for the coming years: The company has placed a EUR 600 million secured bond with institutional investors. The offering was significantly oversubscribed and will mature in 2031. 

At the same time, a new loan facility of EUR 1.4 billion was signed, which runs until 2030. It consists of a EUR 1.0 billion loan together with a EUR 400 million revolving credit facility.

Ralf Göttel, CEO of the BENTELER Group commented: “The continued high level of investor confidence is the clearest sign of the success of our transformation. Our strategy, which focuses on balance, resilience and future-orientation, is working: Despite ongoing challenges in our market environment, BENTELER is well positioned. Our goal is to continue growing profitably, with cost efficiency remaining a clear priority. At the same time, we are investing in our product portfolio, expanding into new markets such as Morocco and pushing ahead with future-oriented initiatives such as our autonomous shuttle HOLON urban.” 

The proceeds from this transaction will be used to refinance the Group’s existing long-term liabilities – a step originally planned for 2028. The decision to move forward earlier is due to the Group’s strong performance: the past three financial years, from 2022 to 2024, were the most successful in the company’s history. 

Tobias Braun, CFO of the BENTELER Group said: “Following our debut on the capital market in 2023, we have now concluded our new refinancing – ahead of schedule and on improved terms. This further optimizes our financing structure. The fact that we have succeeded in doing this despite the current geopolitical uncertainties shows how attractive our group is to investors. Refinancing gives us stability, especially in the current volatile environment.”
