Proceeds from the offering, if completed, are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, including future acquisitions and the repayment of existing credit facilities, Naspers said in a statement on Tuesday (2 July).
The Notes will be offered in a private placement only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A and to non-US persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, subject to prevailing market and other conditions, the group said.
