國泰(00293.HK):歡迎政府延長過渡貸款融資提取期限 更靈活管理流動資金
國泰航空(00293.HK)公布,就政府同意延長78億元過渡貸款融資的可提取期限12個月表示歡迎,令可提取限期延至2022年6月8日。該項過渡貸款為2020年6月9日宣布的390億港元資本重組的一部分,目的是支援國泰航空應對全球航空業下滑的嚴峻挑戰。
行政總裁鄧健榮表示,已採取一系列措施以保存現金,因此在過去十二個月內並未有動用該筆貸款。感謝政府延長過渡貸款的可提取期限,更能靈活管理集團的流動資金狀況。公司在資本市場上能夠繼續籌集債務融資,反映投資市場對公司作為領先航空公司的前景仍然具備信心。展望前景,將繼續靈活應對,以審慎態度管理現金,並適時物色資本融資的機會。有見外遊需求逐漸恢復,對國泰和香港作為國際航空樞紐的長遠前景,仍然充滿信心。
截至去年12月底,公司流動資金維持在逾280億元,公司亦在2月發行可轉換公司債券集資67.4億元,及於5月發行中期票據集資6.5億美元。
