The company and KABDCF fully repaid the $150 million outstanding balance under the prior Loan and Security Agreement. Based solely on stated commitments and borrowings, the Corporate Credit Facility had $197 million of undrawn commitment and the Revolving Funding Facility had $100 million of undrawn commitment; actual availability is subject to borrowing-base calculations, collateral eligibility, and covenant compliance.

Material changes versus the prior period

  • Two new senior secured revolving facilities were established on February 18, 2022.
  • The prior $150 million Loan and Security Agreement was fully repaid.
  • At closing, borrowings were $78 million under the Corporate Credit Facility, $150 million under the Revolving Funding Facility, and $8 million under the Subscription Credit Agreement.

Guidance, risks, contingencies, and unusual items

  • The facilities are secured by specified portfolio assets, including all assets held by KABDCF for the Revolving Funding Facility.
  • Availability may be reduced by borrowing-base advance rates and restrictions involving loan size, payment frequency, loan status, and portfolio-company leverage.
  • Material covenants include limitations on additional debt, liens, certain investments and restricted payments, minimum stockholders’ equity requirements, and a minimum 1.5:1.0 ratio of qualifying total assets to total indebtedness.
  • The filing provides no earnings guidance, revenue outlook, margin information, cash-flow results, or management forecast.

Investor verification points

  • Verify the final borrowing-base availability and covenant compliance under both new facilities.
  • Review the full credit agreements for collateral, eligibility, repayment, default, and prepayment provisions.
  • Confirm the terms and maturity of the $8 million Subscription Credit Agreement, which are not described in this filing.
  • Assess interest-rate sensitivity because both principal facilities use SOFR-based rates.
  • Reconcile these borrowings and the repayment of the prior facility to the company’s subsequent balance sheet and liquidity disclosures.
