The funds required for the coupon payment, amounting to approximately EUR 18 million, were transferred in accordance with the established payment process. The payment was subsequently processed through the established settlement infrastructure involving the paying agent, BPER Luxembourg SA, and Banque Internationale a Luxembourg (BIL), acting as the Luxembourg central securities depository. Based on the information currently available, the delayed crediting of the coupon payment appears to be related to the subsequent settlement process within the international securities clearing systems.

The payment structure used for Iute’s bond program has been in place since 2019 and has supported the timely processing of all previous coupon and principal payments without comparable disruptions.

The Company will provide further updates as additional information becomes available.
