FS KKR Capital Corp. Form 8-K Summary
Business Context and Reporting Period
This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by FS KKR Capital Corp. on March 4, 2019. The filing details a material definitive agreement involving the company's wholly owned special purpose financing subsidiaries, CCT New York Funding LLC and Locust Street Funding LLC.
Key Financial Metrics and Debt Structure
The filing focuses on debt restructuring rather than operational financial performance metrics such as revenue or profit. Key debt terms established in the new agreement include:
- Total Committed Facility: $725,000,000 (combining the previous $425,000,000 Locust Street facility and $300,000,000 CCT New York facility).
- Interest Rate: 3-month LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum.
- Maturity Dates: $325,000,000 matures on January 31, 2021; $400,000,000 matures on September 28, 2022.
- Reinvestment Period: Through September 28, 2021.
- Fees: An unfunded fee applies to unborrowed amounts below 80% of the committed facility; an unused fee of 0.75% per annum applies to amounts above the 80% threshold.
The filing text does not provide clear values for revenue, net income, operating cash flow, or current liquidity ratios.
Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The primary material change is the consolidation of two separate loan agreements into a single Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement. CCT New York Funding LLC merged into Locust Street Funding LLC. Proceeds from the new agreement were used to repay and terminate the prior CCT New York Loan Agreement. This action extended the maturity profile of the debt and unified the borrowing structure under one administrative agent (JPMorgan) and collateral agent (Wells Fargo).
Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
Management Commentary: The filing indicates a strategic move to streamline financing operations and extend debt maturities. The agreement permits prepayment of the 2021 tranche without premium after April 1, 2019. The 2022 tranche allows prepayment after March 4, 2020, subject to declining prepayment premiums (1.5% initially, then 0.5%).
Risks and Contingencies: The filing does not explicitly list new risks but notes that the summary is qualified by the full agreement text. The company remains subject to standard credit risks associated with leveraged finance and LIBOR-based interest rates.
