Simplifies Capital Structure and Extends Maturities
SUGAR LAND, Texas, June 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Team, Inc. (NYSE: TISI) (“TEAM” or the “Company”), a global, leading provider of specialty industrial services offering clients access to a full suite of conventional, specialized, and proprietary mechanical, heat-treating, and inspection services, today announced the successful closing of a series of previously announced refinancing transactions (the “Transactions”) that raised $87.4 million of new funding (approximately $82 million following deductions for transaction related fees and expenses and original issue discounts) and consisting of the following:
- A new $57.5 million, 12% senior secured first lien term loan provided by funds managed by Corre Partners Management, LLC (“Corre”) that matures in December 2026, and is comprised of a $37.5 million term loan tranche and a $20 million delayed draw term loan tranche (the “Corre Secured Term Loan”), and
- A new $27.4 million term loan secured by certain real estate and machinery and equipment of the Company provided by Eclipse Business Capital LLC (the “Eclipse Term Loan”), that matures in August 2025. The Company’s existing revolving credit facility was also amended to extend the maturity date to August 2025, and to increase availability under the revolving credit facility by an additional $2.5 million.
TEAM used the proceeds from the Eclipse Term Loan, together with advances under the Company’s existing revolving credit facility, to repay in full the Company’s existing senior secured term loan with Atlantic Park Strategic Capital Fund, L.P. TEAM intends to use the proceeds from the Corre Secured Term Loan to repay in full the Company’s remaining $41 million of convertible notes due August 2023 and for general corporate purposes.
“Successfully closing this refinancing allows us to pay off our convertible notes, simplify our capital structure and extend our next debt maturity to August 2025,” said Keith D. Tucker, TEAM’s Chief Executive Officer. “With the flexibility provided by our new financing, we now have the runway to further progress our turnaround plan designed to lower our cost structure and improve our cash flow. I want to thank both Corre and Eclipse for their continued support and confidence in TEAM.”
Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Evercore Partners Inc. advised TEAM in connection with these transactions.
