Proceeds from the notes will be used for refinancing borrowings, payment of transaction fees, and general corporate purposes. KJIL will guarantee the notes proposed to be listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange. Issuance for the notes is subject to market conditions.

S&P said in a statement that the jewellery retailer benefits from its good market position in the domestic organized jewelry market, with favorable growth prospects and resilient demand.

The outlook on the financial instrument is stable reflecting the expectation that the company will maintain its market position and steady revenue growth, and manage leverage and liquidity prudently even as it expands.
