Boots Launches Consent Solicitation for Senior Notes

Boots Group Finco L.P. and The Boots Group Luxco S.à r.l. announced today the launch of a consent solicitation process. The initiative seeks approval from holders of the company's €650,000,000 5.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2032 and £375,000,000 7.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2032 to amend certain terms of these debt instruments.

The solicitation allows the co-issuers to formally request consent from bondholders for proposed modifications. While the specific details of the proposed changes have not been fully disclosed at the initiation of the solicitation, the process aims to renegotiate the existing terms of the notes.

This move is understood to be part of a broader financial strategy for the Boots group. Such consent solicitations are often undertaken by companies looking to adjust their debt structure in response to market conditions or strategic business decisions.

The company has set a deadline for bondholders to respond to the solicitation. Successful amendments could impact the financial obligations and cost of capital for the Boots group going forward.
