Luxembourg, 17 March 2026 -- SES Financing S.à r.l., a wholly owned subsidiary of SES, announced the successful launch and pricing of the PNC5.25 Subordinated Perpetual with Automatic Conversion Events (“SPACE”) hybrid transaction, guaranteed on a subordinated basis by SES and SES Americom.

SES Financing S.à r.l. is rated Ba1 (stable) and BBB- (stable) by Moody's and Fitch respectively.

The hybrid securities are expected to be rated Ba3 and BB by Moody's and Fitch respectively, 2 notches below SES’ Long-Term Rating.

The securities will bear a coupon of 7.375% per annum and callable at par from 24 March 2031.

Upon issuance, the securities are expected to receive 100% equity credit (Basket H) from Moody's (if sub-investment grade) and 50% equity credit from Fitch until the first reset date.

SES intends to apply the net proceeds from this transaction to refinance the upcoming 2.875% NC26 hybrid notes (approximately €525 million outstanding) in line with SES’s deleveraging and balance‑sheet strengthening objectives.

BBVA, Goldman Sachs International and J.P. Morgan acted as Joint Global Coordinators and Joint Bookrunners, together with Citi, Deutsche Bank, HSBC and Société Générale as Joint Bookrunners.

The settlement is scheduled for 24 March 2026 and application has been made for the Securities to be listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange’s Euro MTF market.

Lisa Pataki, the CFO of SES commented: “We are pleased with the strong investor demand for our new SPACE Hybrid Bonds, reflected in 5 times oversubscribed order book and quality of support across the investor base. This new PNC5.25 of €650 million SPACE hybrid benefits from an innovative structure, achieving 100% Moody’s equity credit, providing a balanced solution between credit reinforcement and capital efficiency. This instrument allows us to strengthen our balance sheet and leverage reduction targets as well as preserve liquidity headroom and address near-term maturities. ”
