The syndicate of banks that signed the new syndicated loan is made of Banca Comerciala Romana, as coordinator, mandated lead arranger, documentation agent, facility & security agent and lender, Raiffeisen Bank, BRD Groupe Societe Generale and Banca Transilvania, as lead arrangers and lenders.

As of March 31, 2020, the group's total assets amounted to RON 1.06 bln (EUR 219 mln, +4.1 from end-2019), while total debt amounted to RON 849.2 mln (+4.5%). The group's market capitalization is currently RON 722 mln (EUR 149 mln).
