AFN:CC - AGI Announces Credit Facility Expansion and Amendment of Terms
Ag Growth International Inc. (TSX: AFN) (“AGI” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the upsizing and amendment of our revolving credit facilities.
AGI’s revolving credit facilities have been increased by approximately $150 million Canadian dollar equivalent. As part of the agreement, the Series B and C Notes, with a principal amount owing of approximately $57 million Canadian dollar equivalent, will be concurrently retired through the expanded credit facilities. AGI’s revolving credit facilities now totals approximately $694 million in Canadian dollar equivalent. In addition, several amendments to the terms of the agreement were processed to increase the support the facilities provide to AGI, particularly in areas outside of North America.
“While we will continue to carefully manage our overall balance sheet and leverage position, the timing was right to revisit our credit facility to ensure it aligns with AGI’s needs given the substantial geographic expansion we’ve achieved over recent years,” commented Tim Close, President and CEO of AGI. “I’d like to thank our long-time syndicate members for their continued support and extend a welcome to our new partners joining the group. We look forward to working with the entire team as we continue building out AGI across the globe.”
