A&O advises banks on first syndicated dividend recap of 2023

Allen & Overy has advised the banks, led by Barclays, in connection with a €400 million add-on financing for Eviosys (formerly the EMEA tinplate packaging division of Crown Holdings)

-

The deal marks the first syndicated dividend recapitalisation in the European market in 2023.

Eviosys is a market leader in sustainable metal packaging, with the company’s name meaning “sustainability” in Greek. Strong demand for the TLB offering saw its increase to €400 million, with pricing at the tight end of expectations.

Nicholas Clark, London partner and co-head of the global leveraged finance group at Allen & Overy, led the team and commented “This financing demonstrates a return of market appetite for transactions of this type where the issuer has an established track record of strong performance. Our ability to provide the banks with Dutch, French, German, Italian and Spanish advice alongside that of our UK team also showcased the strength of our pan-European leveraged finance practice.”

Eviosys was acquired by KPS Capital Partners in 2021, when it was carved out from Crown Holdings. A&O previously advised the underwriters on the €1.8 billion loan and high yield bond financing in support of the acquisition.

Advice from Amsterdam, Madrid, Milan, Munich and Paris was led by partners Erik-Jan Wagenvoort, Ignacio Ruiz-Cámara, Stefano Sennhauser, Walter Uebelhoer and Julien Roux. The London A&O team also included associates Simba Gonondo, Andreas Georgiades and Jack Dryden.
