Essentially Group PLC, a leading health food company in the UAE delivering high quality nutrition (wellness shots, functional juices, lemonades, nut milks, single origin fruit juices and healthy snacks) to its customers, is pleased to announce the approval for listing by the Vienna MTF (operated by the Vienna Stock Exchange) of the Company's offering of Up to USD 25,000,000 12% Fixed Rate Notes due 2027 ("Notes"). Admission to listing and trading is expected to start on 19 June 2024.

The Notes, which mature in 2027, have a cash coupon with an interest rate of 12% per annum payable semi-annually and are secured by fixed and floating charges over corporate assets of the Company.  

The proceeds from the offering of the Notes are to be used by the Company to fund new machinery, facility expansions, increased automation in the manufacturing process and increasing productivity capacity and lowering costs. Further, funds are also expected to be deployed towards research and development of new products, as well as marketing and business development.
