what happened

Italian company Bending Spoons SpA has priced a dual-currency offering of senior secured notes totaling $1.8 billion, according to Reuters.

The deal consists of $1.25 billion of notes carrying a 9.625% coupon in US dollars and 500 million euros of notes carrying an 8.625% coupon in euros. Both tranches mature in 2032 and were issued at 100% of principal. The company had initially targeted $1.5 billion, and the offering was upsized.

Settlement of the offering is expected on or about November 4, 2026.

why it matters

For debt markets, the deal shows that investors are willing to fund a high-yield issuer in two currencies at a sizable volume. The coupons are well above those paid by the largest borrowers, so the cost of funding for the issuer is considerably higher, while the upsizing from $1.5 billion points to solid demand.
