Crédit Agricole CIB backs Super Micro Computer Inc.’s debut in Taiwan’s syndicated loan market
The USD1.765 billion syndicated loan facility attracted 21 banks with 1.8x oversubscription.
Super Micro Computer, Inc. Taiwan (SMCI Taiwan) has successfully closed a USD1.765 billion syndicated loan facility with a maximum tenor of three years, marking SMCI Group’s first syndicated loan in Taiwan. SMCI Taiwan is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Super Micro Computer, Inc., a leading US artificial intelligence server supplier.
The facility generated exceptional market demand with 1.8x oversubscription from 21 financial institutions comprising both local and foreign banks, resulting in an upsize from the initial USD1 billion facility. This reflects the market’s confidence in SMCI Group’s leadership position in the rapidly expanding AI infrastructure sector.
By tapping Taiwan's deep credit market liquidity, the facility enables SMCI Taiwan to optimise its overall financing costs while achieving a natural hedge for its local procurement activities. As the demand for AI servers continues to surge, this financing provides SMCI Taiwan with the flexible working capital support needed to sustain its accelerated growth momentum.
Crédit Agricole CIB acted as Mandated Lead Arranger and Bookrunner on this transaction.
We are delighted to support SMCI Taiwan's inaugural syndicated loan facility, which demonstrates the strong appetite among financial institutions. This transaction underscores our commitment to supporting innovative technology companies in their international expansion and our deep expertise in Taiwan's syndicated loan market.
