Black Diamond Group Announces Extension and Expansion of Asset-Based Credit Facility
20 Février 2025 - 10:48PM
Black Diamond Group Limited (the “Company” or “Black Diamond”)
(TSX:BDI, OTCQX:BDIMF) is pleased to announce the renewal and
expansion of its secured, asset-based, revolving credit facility
(“Facility”).
The renewal extends the maturity of the Facility
out to February 20, 2030. Concurrently, the Facility is being
upsized to $425 million with a $75 million uncommitted accordion,
from $325 million with an uncommitted accordion of $50 million, and
expanded to now provide advance rates against categories of rental
assets that were previously excluded from the borrowing base.
The interest rate pricing grid remains
unchanged. All other major terms and conditions of the Facility,
including financial covenants, are carried forward and not
materially affected by the extension and expansion. As before,
Black Diamond is required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
of 1.1:1; however this covenant is only tested under certain
circumstances, including when over 90% of the Facility is
drawn.
“The use of the asset-based credit facility has
been instrumental in providing the necessary liquidity and
flexibility to continue growing our specialty rental and industrial
services businesses over the past six years,’ said Trevor Haynes,
Chief Executive Officer of Black Diamond. “This extension and
expansion underpins our continued commitment to executing our
ambitious plans in line with our long range strategies to further
compound our profitable growth and diversify and scale all areas of
our business.”
