Material Changes
On February 6, 2024, Magnite utilized the proceeds from the new term loan to repay in full and terminate the "Existing Credit Agreement" dated April 30, 2021, with Goldman Sachs Bank USA. This action replaced the previous debt structure with the new facilities administered by Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. and Citibank, N.A.
Covenants, Risks, and Management Commentary
The new Credit Agreement includes customary negative covenants restricting additional indebtedness, liens, acquisitions, investments, asset dispositions, and restricted payments. A financial covenant requires the Company to maintain a first lien net leverage ratio not greater than 3.25 to 1.00, tested quarterly if revolving facility utilization exceeds 35% of total commitments. The agreement contains standard events of default, including rights to accelerate loans and realize upon collateral.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the exact interest rate margins applicable based on the Company's current first lien net leverage ratio.
- Review the full text of the Credit Agreement (to be filed as an exhibit to the 2023 Form 10-K) for detailed covenant definitions and exceptions.
- Confirm the Company's current utilization of the $175 million revolving facility to assess if the financial covenant is currently active.
- Monitor future filings for any amendments to the leverage ratio or covenant terms.
