Hayward Refinances Debt with $960 Million Term Loan and $425 Million Revolver

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 financing Written later

Hayward Holdings and its US and Canadian subsidiaries signed an amended and restated first lien credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. on June 23, 2026. The agreement refinances the companies' existing term loan and revolving credit facilities in full and extends their maturities, without increasing total indebtedness.

Key points

  • US Borrower Hayward Industries borrowed $960 million of new seven-year U.S. dollar term loans.
  • A $425 million five-year revolving facility includes a $100 million letter of credit sublimit and a $50 million swingline sublimit.
  • Term loans bear interest at term SOFR plus 2.00% or the alternate base rate plus 1.00%; the facilities are guaranteed and secured by substantially all assets of the borrowers and guarantors.
  • The credit agreement includes a change of control event of default, and the revolver carries maximum total leverage and minimum net interest coverage covenants.
