Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE:TNL) announced today the closing of the Sixth Amendment to its Credit Agreement, which established an $875 million incremental term loan (the “2024 Term Loan B Facility”). The 2024 Term Loan B Facility matures on December 14, 2029, and priced at SOFR plus 250 basis points at par. This facility replaces and reprices the $593 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2023 incremental term loan B facility and refinances the $282 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company’s 2018 term loan B facility due May 31, 2025.
“We are very pleased with the transaction results. The continued strength of Travel + Leisure Co.’s business allowed us to capitalize on favorable market conditions and successfully refinance and reprice our term loan B facilities. Solid investor demand enabled us to extend the maturity date for our $282 million term loan due May 2025 and achieve annual interest savings of nearly $5 million with no original issue discount for the overall transaction,” said Mike Hug, Chief Financial Officer of Travel + Leisure Co.
