泰晤士河水公司(Thames Water)接近16B英镑的营救协议, Thames Water nears £16B rescue deal to avoid public takeover, with debt write-down and creditor equity stakes.

据Sky News报导, 泰晤士河水公司与放款人接近160亿英镑的营救协议, Thames Water is close to a £16 billion rescue deal with lenders to avoid temporary public ownership, according to Sky News, with creditors holding £13 billion of its £20 billion debt aiming for a preliminary agreement by mid-February. 该计划包括债务减记,减记额最高达30%,现有债务减免额超过130亿英镑,债权人在重组后的公司至少获得10%的股权。 The plan includes a debt write-down of up to 30%, more than £13 billion in existing debt forgiven, and creditors receiving at least 10% equity in the restructured company. 如果最后敲定,注入的股本可能增加31.5亿英镑。 An equity injection of £3.15 billion may increase if finalized. 这项交易,在监管者批准之前,将防止政府牵头的接管,并允许该公用事业公司继续私下运营。 The deal, pending regulator approval, would prevent a government-led takeover and allow the utility to continue operating privately. 路透社无法确认细节,最后条件仍然不确定。 Reuters could not confirm the details, and final terms remain uncertain.
