Offering highlights
- Offer price of €16.00 per Offer DR (the "Offer Price")
- 11,272,729 depositary receipts (the "Offer DRs") held by Delta Lloyd (as defined below) have been allotted (the "Offering"), leading to a total offering size of €180.4 million, assuming no exercise of the over-allotment option[1], which would increase to €198.4 million if the over-allotment option would be exercised in full
- The Offering has been several times oversubscribed and attracted both high quality institutional investors as well as large interest from Dutch retail investors
- The Offering is part of Delta Lloyd's plan of management actions and capital measures. The net proceeds will deliver an uplift of c. 8%points to Delta Lloyd's solvency ratio, which will then be at 162% on a pro-forma basis
- Members of the Executive Board of Van Lanschot N.V. (the "Company" or "Van Lanschot") subscribed for an aggregate amount of €1,060,000, which has been allocated in full
- This press release also serves as a pricing statement and has been deposited with the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (Stichting Autoriteit Financiële Markten; "AFM"). The press release is also available on the Company's and Delta Lloyd's website
Hans van der Noordaa, chairman of Delta Lloyd's Executive Board: "The successful sale of our stake in Van Lanschot delivers an uplift of 8%point to our solvency ratio and will bring our solvency ratio to 162%, which is in the upper half of our target range. We are clearly delivering on our capital plan and we will maintain our focus on generating capital, which creates value for all our stakeholders. I am confident Van Lanschot's shareholders will benefit from the increased free float and we wish the company and its stakeholders all the best for the future."
Karl Guha, chairman of Van Lanschot's Executive Board: "We are very pleased with this outcome. We have been able to attract strong interest from institutional and retail investors. Our new, high quality shareholder base buys into our strategy and positioning of an independent, specialised wealth management firm. The stock, the company and our shareholders will benefit from the increased liquidity. We thank Delta Lloyd for being a loyal shareholder for more than four decades and wish them well."
The Offering
Delta Lloyd N.V., Delta Lloyd Levensverzekering N.V. and Delta Lloyd Schadeverzekering N.V. ("Delta Lloyd") have successfully sold 11,272,729 Offer DRs representing ordinary shares in Van Lanschot N.V. at the Offer Price of €16.00 per Offer DR.
The total number of Offer DRs allotted pursuant to the Offering (excluding any Additional DRs) equals approximately 27.4% of Van Lanschot's issued share capital. The final offering size may be increased by up to 1,127,271 depositary receipts in case of exercise of the over-allotment option, exercisable until July 8, 2016. The gross proceeds for Delta Lloyd amount to €180.4 million, which would increase to €198.4 million if the over-allotment option would be exercised in full.
The Offering is part of Delta Lloyd's broader plan of management actions and capital measures to ensure Delta Lloyd's solvency position is strengthened as it transitions into the new Solvency II regime, effective from 1 January 2016. The net proceeds from the Offering will deliver a c. 8%point addition to
Delta Lloyd's solvency ratio, which will then be at 162% on a pro-forma basis (as at Q1 2016), assuming the over-allotment option would be exercised in full.
The Offering consisted of an offering to certain institutional and retail investors in the Netherlands and a private placement to certain qualified institutional investors in various other jurisdictions pursuant to Regulation S under the US Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "US Securities Act") and in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the US Securities Act.
Following closing of the Offering, Delta Lloyd will hold a stake representing approximately up to 2.7% in the share capital of Van Lanschot if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full, and will no longer have an interest in the share capital of Van Lanschot if the over-allotment option is exercised in full.
In connection with the Offering, Van Lanschot and Delta Lloyd have committed to a lock-up for a period of 90 days from the settlement date, subject to customary carve outs and waiver by the Joint Global Coordinators.
Goldman Sachs International and UBS Investment Bank acted as Joint Global Coordinators and Joint Bookrunners for the Offering, and BofA Merrill Lynch and ABN AMRO acted as Joint Bookrunnners for the Offering (collectively, the "Joint Bookrunners"). Kempen & Co and Kepler Cheuvreux acted as Co-Lead Managers for the Offering.
Preferential employee allocation
Eligible employees of Van Lanschot have been preferentially allocated approximately 64,000 of the Offer DRs. In addition, members of the Company's Executive Board subscribed for 66,250 of the Offer DRs, which has been allocated in full. The aggregate amount of Offer DRs allocated to members of the Executive Board and eligible employees of the Company is €2.1 million. The Executive Board members have agreed with the Company to a lock-up of 12 months from the settlement date.
Timetable
The Offer DRs are currently listed and trade on Euronext Amsterdam, and settlement of the Offer DRs will take place on the settlement date, 13 June 2016. Delivery will take place through the book-entry facilities of Euroclear Nederland, in accordance with normal settlement procedures.
