ARC Document Solutions Achieves Lower Interest Rate And More Favorable Terms With Amended Credit Facility
WALNUT CREEK, Calif., July 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ARC Document Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:ARC) announced today that it entered into an amendment to its credit facility which reduced the Term A loan to $60 million and increased the revolving line of credit to $80 million. The balance of the outstanding debt under the credit facility remains unchanged at $110 million.
"Our focus on generating cash and reducing our debt has allowed us to renegotiate our current agreement to more favorable terms," said Suri Suriyakumar, Chairman, CEO of ARC. "The amended and restated agreement not only improves our capital structure, but more importantly, it allows us significant flexibility in terms of investing in and operating the business during its transition."
The amendment to the credit facility reduced the per annum floating interest rate that is adjusted quarterly based on the Company's leverage ratio by 25 basis points across the board. Based on ARC's current leverage ratio of less than 2.5 times, the Company's interest rate, effective July 14, 2017, will be LIBOR plus 175 basis points. Annual amortization charges under the amended facility are projected to drop from $17.5 million to $4.5 million, a reduction of $13 million, and the agreement features fewer restrictions on ARC's uses of excess cash.
The credit facility was reallocated among its lenders and has a restated term of five years that matures in July 2022.
Wells Fargo Securities was the Lead Arranger on the transaction.
