Subex plans to raise $135 m to pay back FCCB holders

28 Nov 2011 Evaluate

Bangalore-based Subex is looking to raise $135 million to pay back foreign currency convertible bond holders and service debt. The company, which had raised money in the foreign markets through foreign currency convertible bonds (FCCB) due for conversion in March 2012, plans to raise the money through a mix of debt and equity. Earlier, the telecom software product maker had sold part of its business to US-based Netcracker for an undisclosed amount in April to partly pay back nearly Rs 418.2 crore to foreign currency bond holders. The company also has Rs 127.3 crore of debt on its books as on March 2011.

Subex had raised the money to finance two foreign acquisitions that did not yield the desired results for the company with the onset of the economic slowdown in 2008. Subex is looking to raise the amount through various options such as qualified institutional placement (QIP), preferential issue, private placement of equity shares, global depository receipts (GDRs), American depository receipts (ADRs) and FCCBs.
