Capgemini announces a €1 billion bond issue and informs on a tender offer on its €1.25 billion bond maturing in 2020

Paris, April 3, 2018- Capgemini announces that it has launched a €1 billion bond issue comprising 6.5-year €500 million senior unsecured notes (the 2024 bond) and 10-year €500 million senior unsecured notes (the 2028 bond).

In addition, Capgemini informs that BNP Paribas has launched today a cash tender offer for Capgemini`s €1.25 billion bond maturing in July 2020 (the 2020 bond, ISIN FR0012821932), up to a maximum principal amount of €500 million. The tender offer is expected to expire at 4:00pm, Paris time, on April 10, 2018.

Capgemini intends to exchange some or all of the 2024 bonds with the 2020 bonds acquired by BNP Paribas through the tender offer.

The proceeds from the 2028 bond and any balance remaining from the 2024 bond will be used for general corporate purposes, including the redemption of the €500 million bond maturing on July 2, 2018 (ISIN FR0012821924).

Through these transactions, which will have no significant impact on the total amount of the Group`s debt, Capgemini intends to take advantage of current attractive market conditions to proactively manage its debt maturity profile.
