team.blue extends $1.2B of Term Loan B to 2032 after upsizing twice

team.blue, a pan-European provider of digital services for small and medium-sized businesses, has extended €1.1 billion of its €1.35 billion Term Loan B. The Ghent-based company, backed by Hg, CPP Investments and Sofina, priced the deal on October 22, 2026. The refinanced tranche now matures in July 2032, instead of September 2029. About 90% of the company's term debt now falls due in 2032. Demand was strong. The deal was upsized twice from an initial €500 million, making it the largest software euro term loan issuance in the last 12 months. It priced at E + 425bps with an original issue discount of 98.5. "The depth of support from our institutional investor base allowed us to go much further," said chief financial officer Jonathan Thackray.

Barclays bond trading revenue falls 19% to $1.3B, lagging Wall Street as equities jump 47%

Barclays Plc's fixed-income traders had the worst third quarter on Wall Street, overshadowing a strong showing from its equities desk. Fixed income and currency trading revenue fell 19% year on year to £1.01 billion ($1.4 billion), below analyst expectations. Equities revenue jumped 47%, its best result since at least 2009. Chief executive officer CS Venkatakrishnan called the fixed-income performance "disappointing." Investment bank income was £3.13 billion, slightly short of forecasts. Shares fell as much as 2.4% in London. The bank kept its targets, announced a £500 million share buyback, and said it is cutting about 5,000 jobs this year, roughly 5% of its workforce.
