Legence Corp Extends Loan Terms and Increases Credit Facility
Today, Legence Corp. (NASDAQ: LGN) announced significant changes to its financial structures, specifically regarding its loan facilities, aimed at positioning the company for future success.
Details of the Term Loan Amendment
The company has amended its Term Loan Credit Facility amounting to $798 million. This amendment includes an extension of the maturity date by three years, moving it to December 16, 2031. Additionally, there has been a reduction in the applicable interest rate to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 2.25%, which reflects a 25 basis point decrease in pricing. This change is designed to enhance the company’s financial flexibility.
Modifications to the Revolving Credit Facility
Along with the term loan changes, Legence also increased its Revolving Credit Facility commitment from $90 million to $200 million. This facility's maturity date has been extended by approximately four years to September 22, 2030, maintaining an interest rate consistent with the Term Loan, at SOFR plus 2.25%.
