Ann-Jakkaphong explains reasons for 609 million baht bond debt and adjustment of payment date

Ann-Jakkaphong Chakra Juthathip, CEO and Managing Director of JKN Global Group Public Company Limited, has provided an explanation regarding the bond debt of 609 million baht, which is due for repayment in 2023. In a letter sent to the Stock Exchange of Thailand, Ann-Jakkaphong states that the company is unable to fulfill the payment obligations on the maturity date of the debentures. As a result, the company will only be able to pay a portion of the principal amount, equating to 146,618,630.14 baht, along with 9,981,369.86 baht in interest, totaling 156,600,000 baht.

Ann-Jakkaphong addressed this matter in a statement through JKN-CNBC channel, highlighting the unprecedented nature of this adjustment. The company has never before been required to adjust the payment date in its 25-year history. This is a unique circumstance that sets it apart from other financial institutions, bonds, and banks, according to Ann-Jakkaphong.

There are several reasons that have led to this situation:

1. Request for deferred repayment

The JKN company has requested to postpone the repayment of debt from the original period. Although they have the necessary cash for immediate payment, amounting to 156.6 million baht, the company seeks to provide interest to bondholders until the full principal amount is paid. The company representative will communicate with each bondholder to clarify details and establish the exact payment date.

2. Challenges due to global economic conditions

The world economy has been experiencing inflation since the beginning of the year, which has affected Thailand as well. This has resulted in reduced spending flexibility and a lack of confidence among investors in the bond market. Additionally, the political instability caused by the delayed establishment of the government has led to a dry money market, with foreign investors withdrawing significant amounts of money from Thailand. These external factors have had an impact on JKN Global Group’s ability to meet its debt obligations.

3. Internal factors

The company faced difficulties in fundraising, which resulted in the inability to meet planned repayment of the debenture. This incident occurred last week, thereby necessitating the modification of payment conditions.

4. Demonstrating sincerity

The publication of these documents demonstrates the company’s sincerity and confidence in addressing the situation.

Overall, JKN Global Group Public Company Limited is actively working to resolve this matter in a timely and effective manner, adhering to all relevant parties involved in the process. The company acknowledges the challenges it faces and is committed to fulfilling its obligations to bondholders.
