AGS Successfully Completes Term Loan Repricing; Voluntarily Repays $15 Million of Its Total Debt Outstanding
06 February 2024 - 8:30AM
PlayAGS, Inc. (NYSE: AGS) ("AGS" or the "Company") today
announced it has successfully completed a repricing of its term
loan credit facility. Among other things, the repricing removes the
credit spread adjustment with respect to term loan borrowings and
reduces the interest rate applied to such borrowings to the Secured
Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.75%. Additionally, in
conjunction with the repricing transaction, the Company elected to
repay $15 million of its total debt outstanding. At today’s SOFR,
the Company estimates the repricing and voluntary repayment will
produce annualized cash interest expense savings of over $3
million.
In addressing the repricing and repayment
activity, AGS Chief Financial Officer, Kimo Akiona, commented, “As
an organization, we remain singularly focused on reducing net
leverage through a combination of consistent Adjusted EBITDA growth
and improving free cash flow conversion. To that end, today’s
announced transactions should help to expedite the achievement of
our near and intermediate-term deleveraging objectives.”
