Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 5 – Arco Platform Ltd. said its wholly owned direct subsidiary Companhia Brasileira de Educacao e Sistemas de Ensino AS issued R$1.2 billion of five-year non-convertible debentures in Brazil on Friday, according to a news release.

The debentures are guaranteed by Arco Educacao SA.

Interest accrues at the CDI interest rate plus 230 basis points.

The debentures mature on Aug. 3, 2027 with principal to be amortized in three equal installments payable on Aug. 3, 2025, Aug. 3, 2026 and Aug. 3, 2027.
