Roche Holding has launched a new Swiss franc-denominated bond maturing on August 26, 2036, with a total issuance size of 410 million Swiss francs.
The bond, listed on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange under ISIN CH1593191XXX and WKN A4EZDZ, carries an annual coupon of 1.095% payable once per year. The first interest payment is scheduled for August 26, 2026, with subsequent payments following annually until maturity. Based on a listed price of 99.63, the bond yields 1.095% to investors.
The minimum investment amount is set at 1,000 nominal units, aligning with the smallest tradable denomination. Moody’s has assigned the bond a credit rating of Aa2, reflecting the issuer’s strong creditworthiness.
Investors outside the euro area face an additional currency risk given the Swiss franc denomination of the bond. The transaction follows Roche’s strategic approach to diversify its funding sources while maintaining access to long-term capital markets.
