TERRAFINA IMPROVES ITS FINANCING CONDITIONS WITH A US$500 MILLION SUSTAINABLE CREDIT FACILITY

Mexico City, July 19th, 2023 – Terrafina (‘TERRA”) (BMV: TERRA13), a leading Mexican industrial real estate investment trust (“FIBRA”), externally advised by PGIM Real Estate and dedicated to the acquisition, development, lease, and management of industrial real estate properties in Mexico, announced today the successful refinancing of its existing sustainable credit facility with a new US$500 million sustainable credit facility. It features improved terms and conditions and will be due in July 2027. This credit line will replace both the US$300 million revolving credit facility and the US$185 million term loan Terrafina currently holds.

This new facility’s issuance, led by PGIM Real Estate and aligned with Terrafina’s ESG strategy, is linked to one of Terrafina’s existing ESG target metrics, namely “square feet certified as a green building” (the “KPI”). As a result of Mexico’s solid industrial real estate fundamentals and Terrafina’s strong historical performance, the Company was able to: i) access better pricing conditions, with a 50-basis point reduction compared to the previous credit facility, ii) expand the weighted average maturity on Terrafina’s balance sheet iii) increase the diversification of financial institutions with which the Company has a relationship; and, iv) access pricing that can be adjusted -/+ 5 basis points subject to meeting the KPI.

Alberto Chretin, CEO and Chairman of Terrafina’s Technical Committee commented: “With this new sustainable credit facility, we reaffirm our commitment to continue aligning our strategy with our stakeholders’ priorities. Our ESG efforts’ progress has allowed us to improve our capital structure, gaining access to better interest rates and maturity terms. I would also like to thank PGIM Real Estate for its great work on this credit facility’s implementation. It will help us strengthen our leadership in the industry. We will uphold our commitments to drive positive change by executing our robust sustainability strategy.”
