DLA Piper Argentina | View firm profile
DLA Piper advised Empresa Distribuidora y Comercializadora Norte S.A. (Edenor), Argentina’s largest electricity distributor, on its issuance of US$550 million Class 10 Notes, as well as a concurrent repurchase offer for its outstanding Class 7 Notes – key steps in the company’s broader strategy to manage maturities and strengthen its financial structure.
The debt securities were issued on April 28, 2026, under Edenor’s global notes issuance program of up to US$1.25 billion (or its equivalent in other currencies), as approved by the Argentine Securities Commission.
The Notes were issued through two series with differing settlement mechanisms. Series I was settled in cash through the transfer of US dollars held in Argentina and abroad, while Series II was settled in kind through the delivery of the company’s outstanding Class 3 and Class 5 Notes.
The DLA Piper team consisted of Partners Joshua Kaufman (New York), Marcelo Etchebarne, and Alejandro Noblía; Of Counsel Nicolás Teijeiro; and Associates Daiana Suk, Federico Vieyra, Ignacio Comparato, and Eugenio Rattagan (all Buenos Aires).
