LR HEALTH & BEAUTY SE INITIATES A WRITTEN PROCEDURE UNDER ITS OUTSTANDING BOND LOAN IN RESPECT OF A COMPREHENSIVE RESTRUCTURING, PUBLISHES A PROSPECTUS FOR SUBSCRIPTION OF BONDS AND INVITES BONDHOLDERS TO SUBSCRIBE FOR SHARES IN ITS NEW PARENT COMPANY
Ahlen, 19 May 2026 – LR Health & Beauty SE (the “Company”) has today decided to initiate a written procedure (the “Written Procedure”) among the holders of the Company’s 2024/2028 bonds (ISIN: NO0013149658) (the “Bondholders” and the “Bonds”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Bonds (the “Terms and Conditions”) in order to implement the reorganization of the Company’s capital structure that has been agreed with Bondholders representing more than two thirds (2/3) of the nominal amount of the Bonds as well as the Company’s shareholder, as communicated by the Company on 11 February 2026 (the “Restructuring”). Bondholders representing more than two thirds (2/3) of the nominal amount of the Bonds have undertaken to vote in favour of the proposals in the Written Procedure.
Jörg Körfer, CEO of LR Health & Beauty SE, states: “The written procedure initiated today is part of the implementation of the agreed reorganization process to reorganize the Company’s capital structure. We very much welcome the continued commitment and support of all stakeholders to strengthen the capital basis of the Company. This commitment of all parties forms the basis of our strategic initiatives to restore and ensure the Company’s sustainable growth.”
In connection with the Written Procedure, and as a part of the Restructuring, holders of existing Bonds are offered (i) to subscribe for new Bonds pro rata in relation to their holdings of existing Bonds (the “New Bonds” and the “Bond Offering”) (see further under “The Bond Offering” below) and (ii) to subscribe for new shares in a newly incorporated holding company which shall be the sole shareholder of the Company following the Restructuring (the “Parent” and the “Share Issue”) (see further under “The Share Issue” below).

- the write-down of EUR 70,000,000 of the nominal amount of the Bonds, pro rata amongst the Bondholders, EUR 20,000,000 of which will be reinstated into reinstated elevated bonds to be issued to Bondholders who elect to subscribe for New Bonds (as further set out below);
- the write-down of EUR 27,500,000 of the nominal amount of the Bonds, pro rata amongst the Bondholders in order to enable the reinstatement of such written-down nominal amount into unsecured and limited-recourse junior bonds of EUR 27,500,000 to be issued by the Parent, pro rata amongst the Bondholders;
