Oryx set the value of asset-based financing access at €110 million ($129 million), while announcing that the new credit agreement has an initial term of three years with an option to extend for an additional two years. The credit volume can be increased up to €130 million ($152 million) depending on demand.
The company stated that the syndicated loan agreement is primarily designed to provide flexible and demand-driven financing for the working capital and commodity hedging transactions of the group companies in Europe.
In Asia, Oryx recently added the newly launched Oryx Stainless Malaysia facility as a new borrowing entity, supported by HSBC Malaysia. Oryx Stainless Thailand, one of the other operations in Southeast Asia, continues to be financed under the European credit agreement. The revolving credit facility of 1 billion Thai Baht ($31.4 million), launched in 2020 with HSBC Thailand and Kasikornbank, remains in place.
Roland Mauss, CFO of Oryx Stainless, said: “HSBC Germany and Oryx Stainless Group have enjoyed a reliable and successful partnership for nearly 25 years. This arrangement enables Oryx to become a global player in stainless steel recycling.”
Dr. Michael Schleef, CEO of HSBC Germany, stated: “We are pleased to support Oryx Stainless Group in expanding its syndicated loan facility. As the Group continues its development as a global commodity supplier, we aim to provide further assistance with additional products and services.”
