LDA Capital and existing creditors back Premiere Horizon’s growth strategy through a PHP 2.8 billion funding Commitment and debt reduction

Premiere Horizon Alliance Corporation (PHA), listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange (PHA:PM), is pleased to announce it has entered into a Put Option Agreement (POA) with LDA Capital (LDA) for up to PHP 2,800,000,000 in committed equity over the next thirty-six months.

LDA’s investment will help accelerate PHA’s expansion projects focused on the growing real estate sector and emerging fintech industry. The capital will also be used to advance the development of SquidPay Technology, a convenient and efficient payment experience for Filipinos, which will be integrated by Q3 of 2021.

PHA will be able to access the equity financing by exercising Put Options whereby PHA has the right, but not the obligation, to draw down from the equity at its discretion. The first Put Option Notice (PON) will be completed within 45 days.

As part of the POA, PHA will grant LDA Call Options to subscribe for PHP 133,000,000 common shares at a premium to the market price of PhP2.26 per share, providing an additional PHP 300,000,000 to PHA.

“PHA is pleased to have secured this alternative investment funding from LDA which will provide the timely equity infusion that will jumpstart the execution of the Company’s strategic countryside business initiatives,” says Augusto Antonio Serafica, Jr., President & CEO of Premiere Horizon.

“LDA is excited to partner with PHA. Despite the economic slowdown, PHA  is well positioned to benefit from rising property prices especially in the new growth centers.  We see additional upside in the growth story with the implementation of recent fintech acquisition SquidPay Technology”, stated Warren Baker, Managing Partner of LDA Capital.
