Heineken N.V. (HEINEKEN) has noted the announcement on May 30 by Fomento Económico Mexicano, S.A.B. de C.V. (FEMSA) that it has launched an offering of existing issued ordinary shares of both HEINEKEN and Heineken Holding N.V. in the total amount of approximately EUR 3.3 billion (the “FEMSA Equity Offering”) and an offering of senior unsecured exchangeable bonds in the aggregate principal amount of up to EUR 250 million, exchangeable into shares of Heineken Holding N.V.

HEINEKEN intends to participate by purchasing HEINEKEN and Heineken Holding N.V. shares for an amount of 10% of the FEMSA Equity Offering, subject to certain conditions. HEINEKEN will fund the share purchase from existing cash resources and committed credit facilities. The impact on its net debt / EBITDA (beia) ratio is expected to be minimal and will be earnings-per-share accretive. Heineken Holding N.V.’s position as controlling shareholder in HEINEKEN will not be affected.

HEINEKEN and Heineken Holding N.V. will not be issuing or selling shares as part of the FEMSA Equity Offering and will not receive any proceeds from it.
