Market Condition at time of launch
• In late July, U.S stock indices rallied amidst strong 2Q earning results and positive economic data. Secondary
Asian credit flows were upbeat with credit spreads tightening aligned with the equity rally.
• Treasury yields had elevated on the back of improved risk appetite and macro economic data pointing to a
potential bottoming of the current recession. Increased supply concerns of an auctioning of $115billion into
the coming weeks of early August also drove yields higher.
• Despite summer holiday season approaching, G3 primary markets were extremely robust with high optimism
that regional economies will post improvements later in the year.

Bookbuilding Statistics

PETRONAS’ name recognition, robust credit profile, premier industry position, and scarcity value given
PETRONAS’ absence from the primary markets since 2002. The deal was significantly oversubscribed from
the original “benchmark” size guidance.

PETRONAS Secondary Trading Performance
• Priced aggressively at the lower end of the guidance, the Petronas bonds widened in secondary
trading along with broader investment grade credit markets as traders lightened positions going
into the summer break.
• Spreads widened on light flows as market paced the digestion of the large issues, but back into
September post summer break, credit spreads tightened with increased risk appetite amidst
positive news flows on the global and the Asian economies.

Insight
• Petronas took an opportunistic approach. The result was tight pricing with an enlarged
financing size.

• Simultaneous conventional and Sukuk tranches ensured proper benchmark for pricing.

• Different maturities to attract the widest investor base possible to optimise pricing and size for
both the Sukuk and Conventional issues.

• First to leverage on the MIFC initiative by listing on Bursa Malaysia increased demand from
Malaysian based investors.

• Only 9% of the Sukuk tranche was allocated to dedicated Islamic funds illustrating market’s
growing acceptance of Sukuk among conventional investors.

• The Notes and the Sukuk have become new liquid benchmarks for Malaysian and other
Asian issuers.
