Grupo Aeroportuario Del Pacifico Announces the USD$40.0 Million Drawdown From an Available Credit Facility for the Acquisition of a Company Within the Tijuana Airport
28 September 2023 - 8:20AM
Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V., (NYSE:PAC; BMV:
GAP) (“the Company” or “GAP”) informs that today it made a drawdown
of USD$40.0 million from a credit facility with Banco Nacional de
México, S.A., (“Citibanamex”), at a 12-month term. Interest will be
payable monthly at a SOFR variable rate plus 25 basis points, and
principal payment is due upon maturity, without fees.
Proceeds from this loan will be used for the
acquisition of 100% of the shares of a real estate company within
the Tijuana airport for USD$35.4 million, which will allow the
control, operation, and exploitation of 26 hectares in the airport
polygon.
The main activity of this company consists of
subleasing cargo operation areas, hangars, and operational areas to
aeronautical industry clients, such as air cargo companies,
aviation, couriers, customs services, and ancillary services.
We consider that the acquisition of this company
becomes a strategic asset for the expansion of the Tijuana airport
and for the growth of the Company's non-aeronautical revenues.
