LeBruin raises €73m debt finance package on behalf of client

LeBruin is pleased to announce that it has raised a €73m debt finance package to fully fund the acquisition of c. €140m nominal debt from a foreign bank deleveraging in Ireland. The loans were secured on a portfolio of high quality real estate in Dublin, alongside one asset which was acquired for redevelopment.

The portfolio involved is currently producing income of c. €8m per annum from a high quality mix of tenants including Government bodies, Irish Financial Institutions, PLCs and some local covenants. The new finance was provided for a period of 5 years, thereby allowing the sponsors to maximise the value over that period, whilst maintaining 100% control of their portfolio.

Commenting on the transaction, Tom Browne, Managing Director of LeBruin stated “Our ability to raise a debt finance package of this value demonstrates our expertise and connections in sourcing funding for our clients, and highlights LeBruin’s growing presence as a significant player in the corporate finance market in Ireland”.
