  • Iceland Foods' Use of Bond Proceeds to Fund Restaurant Expansion While Withholding Relief Money Sparks ESG Concerns
    Iceland Foods' use of bond proceeds to fund restaurant expansion while withholding relief money sparks ESG concerns 24 February 2021 | 19:22 GMT Iceland Foods’ managing director Richard Walker in a recent press report noted the company cannot afford to pay back business rates relief, due to the costs of making shops COVID-safe and buying out its previous shareholder, Brait. But the UK-headquartered frozen food retailer was able to use recent bond issuance proceeds to fund the acquisition of a group of restaurants that will enter the bondholder restricted group in FY21/22, while not returning government rates relief, unlike supermarket peers, sparking corporate governance concerns, according to three buysiders. The company priced a B2/B/B+ rated GBP 250m senior secured 2028 note with a 4.375% yield on 12 February with HSBC as sole global coordinator and physical bookrunner. Use of proceeds included GBP 170.2m to refinance existing 2024 notes, GBP 20m to refinance a term facility, GBP 52.8m to boost cash on balance sheet and GBP 7m fees and expenses. It was the GBP 52.8m earmarked for cash on balance sheet that marked a shift in company strategy. In its bond prospectus the frozen food company noted that during FY21/22 period- end March, it intended to consolidate its interest in a group of restaurants it now owns, into the bondholder restricted group. After this consolidation, it plans to use cash on balance sheet to repay the restaurant business debt when prudent to do so, which consists of loans largely owed to shareholders over the next 18 to 24 months subject to reaching deleveraging targets.

Farms fear financial failure as they compete with cheaper imports; high import reliance renders the country vulnerable to natural, political, and financial volatility; climate changethreaten s to exacerbatethese food systemweaknesses . Yet Iceland has no contingency plan, and adaptation measures are absent from national climate change reports.While thisgap could be perceived asnegligence , to do so assumes a universalistic framework for risk and resilience—a trendcurrently seen in theglobal proliferation of formulaic, resiliency plans.

The Food Standards Agency has a key role in preventing foodborne illnesses. The Strategic Plan aims to reduce foodborne disease further and has set a target to reduce Campylobacter contamination in raw chicken. Campylobacter is the most prominent bacterium associated with foodborne disease within the United Kingdom. Foodborne Campylobacter is estimated to make more than 280,000 people ill each year in the UK and is the biggest cause of food poisoning. An EFSA Opinion1 stated that up to 80% of cases can be attributed to raw poultry meat. It is hoped that by reducing the number of highly positive birds through effective control programmes, the number of human cases will decrease.
