Pemex Launches $9.9 Billion Bond Buyback to Ease Near‑Term Debt Pressures

The offer taps July Treasury pre‑capitalized notes to execute the refinancing that spurred a Fitch upgrade to BB.

Overview

  • Pemex opened a tender to repurchase up to $9.9 billion across 11 dollar and euro bond series maturing between 2026 and 2029.
  • Holders who tender by September 15 receive a $30 or €30 early premium per $1,000 or €1,000 of principal, with the offer expiring at 17:00 New York time on September 30.
  • Securities tendered may be withdrawn until 17:00 New York time on September 15, and accepted holders will also be paid accrued interest.
  • The repurchase is funded with proceeds from the SHCP’s July issuance of $12 billion in five‑year pre‑capitalized notes as part of a broader refinancing plan.
  • Pemex carries about $98.8 billion of financial debt with large maturities approaching, including $5.1 billion due in 2025 and $18.7 billion in 2026, factors that continue to weigh on liquidity.
