what happened

Chinese food delivery company Meituan is offering investors five-year and ten-year offshore yuan bonds, known as dim sum bonds. Initial price guidance is around 2.90% for the five-year tranche and 3.60% for the ten-year, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters.

According to the agency, the company aims to raise about 7 billion yuan, or roughly $1.05 billion. The proceeds will refinance existing offshore debt and fund general corporate purposes. The notes are senior unsecured debt, and they are expected to be rated Baa1 by Moody's and BBB+ by S&P Global Ratings and Fitch, all three with negative outlooks.

why it matters

The deal shows how large Chinese companies raise funds outside mainland China. The guidance yields and negative rating outlooks give a read on borrowing costs for Chinese issuers in the offshore yuan market.
