LAS VEGAS, Oct. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- AGS (NYSE: AGS) (or the "Company"), a leading designer and supplier of electronic gaming machines, table products, and interactive solutions for the gaming industry, today announced that it has successfully repriced its existing $509 million in Term B Loans, and secured commitments from lenders for an additional $30 million in terms loans under its existing credit agreement.

The Term B Loans amendment, effective October 5, 2018, reduced the interest rate spread 75 basis points from LIBOR plus 425 basis points to LIBOR plus 350 basis points. The LIBOR floor remains at 100 basis points.  The interest rate reduction will be 100 basis points if, at any time, the Company receives a corporate credit rating of at least B1 from Moody's. As a result of the repricing, the Company expects to realize annual cash interest savings of approximately $3.8 million. The repriced term loans continue to be due in full in February 2024.

The new $30 million term loan facility closed and funded October 5, 2018. Initial drawn pricing for the aggregate amount of the outstanding term loan is set at LIBOR plus 350 basis points.

AGS intends to use the proceeds from the financing for general corporate purposes and additional capital to accelerate growth.
