Lifeway Foods signs up to $22 million CIBC equipment financing facility
Lifeway Foods entered into a Master Security Agreement with its current lender, CIBC Bank USA, on June 30, 2026, providing up to $22,000,000 in loan advances to finance or refinance equipment purchases. Advances convert into a five-year Equipment Guidance Line Note once the interim funding period ends, and the existing credit agreement terms remain unchanged. The filing describes a borrowing arrangement rather than an operating result, so it does not directly show a change in Lifeway's earnings.
Key points
- Up to $22,000,000 in aggregate loan advances available during an interim funding period expiring June 30, 2027
- Interest payable monthly at 1-month SOFR plus 1.65%, both during the interim period and after conversion
- Advances convert to the Equipment Guidance Line Note, payable in monthly installments and maturing five years after the Conversion Date
- Existing Credit Agreement with Fresh Made, Inc. and Lifeway Wisconsin, Inc. remains unchanged
