The team coordinated by Mădălina included Nicolae Grasu (Associate) and Martha Busuiocescu (Lawyer) from the Clifford Chance Bucharest office, George Hacket (Partner), Andrei Manea (Senior Associate) and Maks Mencin (Associate) from the Frankfurt office, Chris Roe (Partner) and Anjaneya Das (Senior Associate) from the London office, as well as an extended legal team working on the due diligence process, including Ecaterina Burlacu and Diana Borcean (Senior Associates), Filip Marinău and Georgiana Cupaș (Lawyers).
Mădălina Rachieru-Postolache, Head of the Bucharest Capital Markets practice, said: "Premier Energy's listing was a complex and innovative project for Romania, as it was the first initial public offering combined both with a secondary offer and with a guaranteed allocation for the issuer's management. We thank the Premier Energy team for trusting us, wishing them success on the Bucharest Stock Exchange – they are one of the fastest growing energy
infrastructure companies in South-Eastern Europe and I am certain that they will also have a promising progress in the future. I would also like to thank the institutions involved (ASF, BSE and Depozitarul Central) for their professionalism and excellent collaboration, especially given the tight timing of the transaction (ASF approved the offer prospectus immediately after the Easter break). The first part of 2024 has been a very busy time for us, with a significant pipeline of Capital Market transactions, which indicates that companies and investors in Romania and in the European Union have more and more confidence in the Romanian market."
Premier Energy's listing adds to an impressive portfolio of projects that Clifford Chance Badea has successfully advised over the past 10 years in the Energy industry – from the Romgaz IPO in 2013 (the first dual listing in Romania, on the Bucharest and London Stock Exchanges, which also included the first issue of Global Depository Receipts), the dual listing of Electrica in 2014, and the listing of OMV Petrom on the London Stock Exchange in 2016, to OMV Petrom's share capital increase in 2022, Hidroelectrica's historic listing in Bucharest, and the delisting of OMV Petrom's Global Depositary Receipts from London, in 2023.
