    4. ‌OBJECTIVE OF THE ISSUE AND SPECIFIC RISKS RELATING TO THE OBJECTIVE

      The funds generated from the Debenture Issue will be utilized for the refinancing of short-term debt facilities of the Company with medium term funds immediately upon the allotment of the Debentures and receipt of the funds by the Company.

      These short-term debt facilities include short term loans and overdrafts obtained from banks for working capital purposes. By settling these short-term obligations and refinancing the same via medium term funds, the Company will be able to minimize its reliance on financial institutions for the financing of the working capital requirements while mitigating interest rate risk and liquidity risk due to market volatilities. The gearing ratio of the Company prior to the Issue is 0.77x. This is expected to remain unchanged following the Debenture Issue.

      The Company is not required to obtain any approvals for the Issue and the objective of the issue from any regulator other than the CSE.

      Utilization of Funds Raised through the Issue

      The Company will utilize LKR 5,000 Million raised through the initial Issue of the Debenture to settle short-term debt facilities to the value of LKR 5,000 Million. These short-term debt facilities are continuously drawn down on a monthly/quarterly/bi-annual recurring basis to finance the working capital needs of the Company and the interest rates applicable are based on the prevailing market interest rates at the time of renewing the facilities. Therefore, it is the intention of the Company to replace short term debt facilities with long term borrowings through the issuance of Debenture in order to mitigate any possible adverse impact from volatile market interest rates. The facilities have been identified for settlement considering the quantum of the facilities involved, the terms and conditions offered by the banks, the maturity pattern of the facilities and the requirement to free-up facilities from banks to meet future funding requirements. Accordingly, the short term loan facilities that are to be settled utilizing the Debenture proceeds are listed below.

    19. ‌RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTING IN THE DEBENTURES
  • Reinvestment Risk: Interest on the Debentures are payable semi-annually for the Type A debentures, Type B Debentures and Type C Debentures. An investor may decide to reinvest this interest payment and earn interest from that point onwards until maturity. Depending on the prevailing interest rates at the point of reinvestment, the interest rates at which Debenture Holders will reinvest such interest received being higher or lower than the return offered by the Debentures is known as Reinvestment risk.
  • Interest Rate Risk: The price of a typical Debenture will have a negative correlation with the market interest rates. Interest rate risk captures this relationship between market interest rates and the value of Debentures. If market interest rates rise, the value of the Debentures may fall: as market interest rates fall the value of Debentures may rise (all other factors being equal). If the investor wishes to sell the Debenture prior to its maturity, he might be facing a capital loss (gain) if the market interest rates have increased (decreased) subsequently. Interest rate risk is irrelevant for the investor who wishes to hold the Debenture till maturity.

    The interest rate applicable for Type B Debentures (One Year Treasury Bill Rate+ 2.00%), which feature a floating interest rate, is subject to fluctuations based on changes in the One Year Treasury Bill Rate. Consequently:

    • If the One Year Treasury Bill Rate + 2.00% drops below the fixed interest rate applicable to Type A and C Debentures, investors holding Type B Debentures will earn a lower return compared to Type A and C Debenture investors.

    • Conversely, if One Year Treasury Bill Rate + 2.00% rises above the fixed rate applicable to Type A and C Debentures, Type B Debenture investors will earn a higher return than those with Type A and C Debentures.

      However, impact of the above is limited due to the existence of a cap and floor on the floating rate applicable to the Type B Debentures.

  • Credit Risk: Risk of the issuer not being able to pay interest and principal payments as promised on a timely basis is default risk/credit risk. It is advisable for prospective investors of the Debenture to consider the credit rating awarded to the Company and to its Debentures by Fitch Ratings Lanka Limited, present financial strength as reflected in the Balance Sheet of the Company, assets and earnings growth and experience and skills of the Directors and senior management when forming an opinion on default risk. Fitch Ratings Lanka Limited has assigned a credit rating of "AAA (lka)" for the Listed, Rated, Unsecured, Senior, Redeemable Debenture issue of Hayleys PLC (Refer Annex I for Rating Report) and this credit rating will be reviewed periodically.
  • Liquidity Risk: Liquidity risk refers to the ease with which the Debenture can be sold in the secondary market, after the initial placement. Since the Hayleys PLC Debentures are listed, should an investor require an exit option, they will be able to sell the Debentures through the CSE in order to convert them to cash and exit from the investment. Therefore, the liquidity risk is mitigated to a greater degree in the Hayleys PLC Debenture. Investors have to be mindful of the fact that even though the Debentures are listed, trading of listed debt is not at an advanced stage as the equity markets in Sri Lanka.
  • Inflation Risk: An increase in inflation rates will cause a decrease in the real value of coupon cash flows of the Debenture. The Debenture which offers the fixed coupon is subject to inflation risk since the interest rates are not adjusted upwards depending on the inflation rate.
