Hannover, 24th July 2025: TUI has successfully issued a €250 million Schuldscheindarlehen (promissory note) with tenors of 3 and 5 years priced at 180 and 210 base points respectively. The transaction includes both fixed and floating rate tranches, with an average tenor of approximately 3.6 years and a blended coupon of c.4% at current interest rates.
