CityFibre Revisiting the CityFibre debt syndication

In June 2022, CityFibre secured a £4.9bn debt package comprising committed facilities of £3.9bn and an accordion facility of £1.0bn. Initial attempts to syndicate the debt were unsuccessful, allowing the underwriters to re-price (‘flex’) the debt in January 2023. We understand that subsequent attempts to syndicate the debt have also been unsuccessful, leaving the underwriters with £4.9bn of CityFibre debt sitting on their books.
