This credit facility is available to finance green investments, in compliance with the Green Loan Principles. The Company expects to utilize the refinanced credit facility to support its backlog of signed contracts. Allego increased its backlog of signed contracts meaningfully during the third quarter of 2022 and has reached 1,270 premium sites, representing around 8,400 ultrafast charging ports that will serve its customers.

Allego’s Chief Financial Officer, Ton Louwers, stated, “We are excited to have successfully increased our credit facility by €230 million to €400 million. With this increase, we have reached a major milestone in Allego’s long term funding strategy to pursue and achieve our growth plans and support our secured backlog. As a result, we believe we are very well positioned to continue to execute on our growth strategy of expanding the largest European public EV fast-charging network, accelerate the transformation of Europe’s EV charging infrastructure, and drive value for all our stakeholders.”

Societe Generale acted as structuring bank, and Societe Generale and Banco Santander served as the mandated lead arrangers and book runners on this facility.
