DLA Piper represented Mexican issuer Cox Asset Mexico, S.A. de C.V. in connection with Grupo Cox\u2019s inaugural US$2 billion bond offering to the US market.<\/strong>
\nStructured as a 144A\/Reg S transaction, the offering marks a significant milestone in Cox\u2019s access to the US debt capital markets. The deal was upsized from an initially planned US$1.5 billion following approximately US$8.0 billion in investor demand. The transaction was more than five times oversubscribed, enabling Cox to increase the offering size, achieve improved pricing across both tranches, and allocate bonds to more than 200 primarily U.S.-based, long-only institutional investors.<\/p>\n

Proceeds from the issuance were used to refinance approximately two-thirds of the US$2.65 billion bridge loan incurred in connection with the acquisition of Iberdrola M\u00e9xico.<\/p>\n

The DLA Piper team, co-led by attorneys in the United States and Mexico, included Partners\u00a0Jamie Knox<\/a>\u00a0(New York),\u00a0Robert da Silva Ashley<\/a>\u00a0(New York\/Miami),\u00a0Edgar Romo<\/a>\u00a0(Mexico City), and Associates\u00a0Egzon Sulejmani<\/a>\u00a0(New York),\u00a0Javier Pichardini<\/a>, and\u00a0Andr\u00e9s Fern\u00e1ndez<\/a>\u00a0(both Mexico City).<\/p>\n
