Insights

Millicom taps its 2032 bond for $75M in additional funding.

Millicom is adding $75 million to its existing 7.375% Senior Notes due 2032, increasing the total outstanding to $450 million. The reopening is priced slightly above par at 100.985%, suggesting demand for the paper at the stated coupon.

The transaction is a Regulation S institutional private placement to a non-U.S. investor and does not involve a U.S. public offer. Proceeds are earmarked for general corporate purposes, including potential capital expenditures and mergers and acquisitions, indicating flexible funding rather than a single defined project.

The Notes carry a fixed 7.375% coupon with semi-annual interest on April 2 and October 2 until maturity on April 2, 2032. Listing on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange’s Euro MTF market supports secondary trading liquidity, while standard EEA/UK retail investor restrictions and PRIIPs disclosures frame the investor base as professional and institutional.

Regulation S regulatory
"a Regulation S only tap private placement to an investor that is not a “U.S. Person”"
Regulation S is a set of rules that allows companies to sell securities (like shares or bonds) to investors outside the United States without having to follow all U.S. securities laws. It matters because it makes it easier for companies to raise money from international investors while still complying with U.S. regulations.
Senior Notes financial
"7.375% Senior Notes due 2032 that Millicom originally issued on April 2, 2024"
Senior notes are a type of loan that a company borrows from investors, promising to pay it back with interest. They are called "senior" because in case the company faces financial trouble, these lenders are paid back before others. This makes senior notes safer for investors compared to other types of loans or bonds.
Prospectus Regulation regulatory
"a qualified investor as defined in Article 2(e) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the “Prospectus Regulation”)"
A set of laws and rules that require companies to prepare and publish a prospectus — a detailed document about an offering of stocks, bonds or other securities — so potential buyers can see key facts like business plans, risks and financial numbers. Think of it as a product label for an investment: it helps investors compare offers, avoid surprises and make informed choices, and it also affects how and when companies can raise money.
PRIIPs Regulation regulatory
"no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the “PRIIPs Regulation”)"
The PRIIPs regulation is a set of rules designed to help individual investors understand the risks and potential rewards of complex financial products, such as investment funds and insurance-based investments. It requires providers to present clear, standardized information—similar to a nutrition label—so investors can compare options easily and make informed decisions. This regulation aims to increase transparency and protect consumers in the financial market.
MiFID II regulatory
"a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended “MiFID II”)"
MiFID II is a set of rules in Europe that aims to make financial markets more transparent and fair. It requires banks and investment firms to clearly explain their services and costs to clients, helping people make better-informed decisions when investing their money.
Euro MTF market market
"admitted to trading on the Euro MTF market thereof"
A euro MTF market is a European trading venue that matches buyers and sellers of securities—often bonds and some stocks—outside the main national exchanges. Think of it as a specialized marketplace with lighter listing rules and different oversight; it matters to investors because the venue affects how easy it is to buy or sell a security, the transparency of prices, and the level of regulatory protection and reporting they can expect.

Luxembourg, April 2, 2026 Millicom International Cellular S.A. (“Millicom”) (NASDAQ US (TIGO) announces today the successful pricing of $75 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.375% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “Additional Notes”) in a Regulation S only tap private placement to an investor that is not a “U.S. Person” (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) at a price of 100.985%, plus accrued and unpaid interest from and including April 2, 2026 to, but excluding, the issue date of the Additional Notes. The Additional Notes will be issued as a reopening of, and will be part of the same series as, the 7.375% Senior Notes due 2032 that Millicom originally issued on April 2, 2024 (the “Initial Notes” and, together with the Additional Notes, the “Notes”), except that the Additional Notes will initially be issued under a temporary ISIN and CUSIP during the 40-day distribution compliance period required under Regulation S, and will not be fungible with or exchangeable for the Initial Notes during that period. After the expiration of the 40-day period, the Additional Notes will be assigned the same ISIN and CUSIP as the initial Regulation S Notes and will be able to trade interchangeably with the Initial Notes. Currently, $450 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are outstanding. The issuance and sale are expected to close on April 14, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of market and other customary closing conditions. Millicom intends to use the net proceeds of the Additional Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures and mergers and acquisitions. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 2 and October 2 of each year; the Notes will mature on April 2, 2032, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed.

 

Application will be made for the Additional Notes to be admitted to listing and trading on Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF market thereof.
