Adrian Tanase, CEO of the Bucharest Stock Exchange, stated: “Hidroelectrica’s listing is a benchmark for the capital market in Romania and we congratulate the company’s shareholders and the intermediary consortium for achieving the largest IPO in Europe so far this year. Hidroelectrica’s listing triggered unprecedented energy in the capital markets because it put Romania at the center of the attention of high-profile international investors and mobilized considerable energy among Romanian investors who subscribed orders at a record level for a local IPO. The success of the Hidroelectrica listing has contributed considerably to the entry of new investors into the market, and together with the change in the taxation system regarding the capital gains, the continuation of the Fidelis government bonds program, and the future listings announced, create the prerequisites that, in the short term, we will exceed the threshold of 200,000 investors in the capital market. Hidroelectrica’s effect also crosses Romania’s borders because a listing of such scope has significant implications on several levels, the market upgrade being one of them. MSCI’s decision regarding Romania’s promotion among Emerging Markets also depends on this success, but also on the fulfillment of the qualitative and quantitative criteria of the index provider. We are in dialogue with MSCI because our promotion to Emerging Market status on their behalf would be an additional recognition of all the efforts of the capital market stakeholders.”

The consortium for the sale of the Hidroelectrica stake was formed by Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG, Erste Group Bank AG, Jefferies GMBH, and Morgan Stanley Europe SE as joint global coordinators. Co-holders of the subscription register were Banca Comerciala Româna SA, Barclays Bank Ireland PLC, BofA Securities Europe SA, UBS Europe SE, UniCredit Bank AG Milan Branch, and WOOD & Company Financial Services. Coordinating intermediaries were Auerbach Grayson, BRD – Groupe Société Générale, S.S.I.F. BT Capital Partners S.A., and S.S.I.F. Swiss Capital S.A. The financial advisor to FP was appointed Rothschild & Co Equity Market Solutions Limited, while STJ Advisors was the financial advisor to H2O..
