Gerardo de Nicolás, Chief Executive Officer of Homex, commented: “Today is an exciting day. Our emergence from Concurso, along with the new money capital raise, marks the start of a new chapter for Homex. Today we emerge well-capitalized, through the issuance of Ps.1.75 billion of convertible debentures, to execute on our thoroughly-vetted business plan. I would like to thank everyone that has supported Homex in this process. Our emergence would not have been possible without the hard work carried out by our employees and the continuous support of our customers and suppliers throughout the process. In addition, I acknowledge the professionalism and commitment of our advisors, creditors, new capital providers, and all of the parties involved in making this possible.”
