02:30 PM EDT, 06/23/2025 (MT Newswires) -- JBS NV (JBS) is planning a $3.5 billion bond sale to extend debt maturities, Bloomberg reported, citing a person familiar with the matter.

The Brazilian meat producer is mulling a debt offering with due dates of 10, 30, and 40 years, the person told Bloomberg.

The debt offering comes as borrowers tap into debt markets amid escalating Middle East conflicts, according to the report.

JBS has commenced a cash tender offer for $1 billion of 2.50% senior notes due 2027 and also intends to redeem all or a portion of its 5.125% senior notes due 2028, a regulatory filing shows.

JBS didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
