Key Tronic Corporation Announces New Credit Facilities
06 December 2024 - 8:32AM
Key Tronic Corporation (Nasdaq: KTCC), a provider
of electronic manufacturing services (EMS), today announced that it
entered into a new financing arrangement with the Bank of Montreal
and Callodine Commercial Finance which extends and increases its
access to working capital through December 2029. The combined
financing agreement provides up to $143 million in availability,
subject to the Company’s borrowing base and other limitations. The
new credit agreements replace Key Tronic’s asset-based line of
credit with Bank of America, which was set to expire in December
2025. In connection with these agreements, the Company expects to
write off approximately $0.9 million in unamortized capitalized
loan fees.
“We are excited to update our financing arrangements as we
prepare for growth in coming years,” said Tony Voorhees, Chief
Financial Officer. “We believe the new financing significantly
enhances our access to working capital over the next five years and
address liquidity to support our long-term growth plans.
Additionally, we anticipate these new facilities will lower our
interest expense and provide greater financial flexibility moving
forward.”
