Financial strategy

Otovo’s business is financed primarily through equity, which is the most appropriate funding source for a company in a scale up phase like Otovo. The subscription business which is financed by EDEA, is set up to be partly financed through bank debt. Otovo is in a growth and scale-up phase, and is currently not in position to pay dividends. The company has certain authorisations for capital increase that have a duration of two years from the date they were given.

Debt

Our Subscription SPV has a EUR 100m revolving credit facility with DNB Bank ASA and Sparebank1 SR-Bank ASA. Export Finance Norway has agreed and credit approved to guarantee EUR 37.5m of the EUR 100m facility.

The facility is priced based on a floating interest rate, with EURIBOR as the reference rate and a margin of 350 bps.

The maximum leverage is 75% in Norway, Sweden, Germany, Austria, Belgium, and the Netherlands, and 60% in other countries.

The basis for calculating the leverage is the price that Otovo (the originator) sells the project to EDEA (subscripiton SPV) for. This is close to, but somewhat lower than, the ticket size, i.e. the direct purchase equivalent price.
