Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. - 8-K Summary

Business Context and Reporting Period

This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: XHR) on January 10, 2023. The filing discloses the entry into a material definitive agreement regarding a new senior unsecured credit facility.

Key Financial Metrics and Debt Structure

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, XHR LP, entered into a new $675 million senior unsecured credit facility. The structure includes:

  • Total Facility Size: $675 million
  • Revolving Credit Facility: $450 million (matures January 2027, extendable by one year)
  • Initial Term Loan: $125 million (matures March 2026, extendable by one year)
  • Delayed Draw Term Loan: $100 million (matures March 2026, extendable by one year)
  • Letters of Credit: Up to $25 million available under the revolving facility
  • Outstanding Borrowings: $0 as of January 10, 2023
  • Interest Rate: Based on a pricing grid ranging from 145 to 275 basis points over the applicable adjusted term SOFR rate, determined by the Company's leverage ratio.

Material Changes and Use of Proceeds

The proceeds from the $125 million Initial Term Loan were utilized to pay off a previous $125 million term loan that was due in September 2024. This transaction refinances existing debt and extends the maturity profile of the Company's obligations. The Company also entered into a Parent Guaranty, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteeing the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement.

Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items

The Credit Agreement includes customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants, representations, warranties, and default provisions. The facility provides flexibility with an option to request an uncommitted increase in revolving loan commitments and/or add an uncommitted term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million. The filing does not provide specific revenue, profit, or cash flow metrics for the reporting period, as this is a transactional filing rather than a periodic financial report.

Key Facts for Investor Verification

  • Verify the specific financial covenants and leverage ratio thresholds in the full Credit Agreement (Exhibit 10.1).
  • Confirm the impact of the new debt structure on the Company's liquidity and future interest expense.
  • Review the Parent Guaranty (Exhibit 10.2) to understand the scope of the parent company's liability.
  • Monitor the utilization of the $450 million revolving facility and the $100 million delayed draw term loan.
