Signed agreement on 拢1.55bn debt pile will be put to bondholders on Wednesday for 21-day approval process
Taylor Wimpey鈥檚 banks are expected to sign off its 拢1.55bn debt deal today, according to a source close to the situation.
The deal, which has been under discussion for 10 months, will then be put to bondholders on Wednesday for their approval, a process that is due to take 21 days.
The source said: 鈥淭he banks need to respond by today but you can assume they will all sign off on this package.鈥�
Bondholders have about 拢443m of the company鈥檚 debt, private placement debt holders have about 拢380m and a group of banks hold the rest.
It is thought Taylor Wimpey may provide a further update to the market this week once the deal is under consideration by the bondholders.
A final deal is expected by the end of April. The company's share price rose 28% in early trading today amid heightened speculation a deal was due this month.
A Taylor Wimpey spokesman declined to comment.
