AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · NETSCOUT Systems (NTCT)

NetScout amends credit agreement, secures new $600 million five-year revolving facility

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 financing Written later

NetScout Systems entered into a third amendment and restatement of its credit agreement, providing a new five-year, $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility maturing October 4, 2029. The facility can be used for working capital, general corporate purposes, refinancing existing revolving loans, and repurchasing common stock, and it is secured by substantially all company and subsidiary-guarantor assets.

Key points

  • New $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $75 million letter of credit sub-facility
  • Commitments expire and any outstanding loans are due on October 4, 2029
  • Initial SOFR margin of 1.00% and commitment fee of 0.15% until financials for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 are delivered; both then vary with the gross leverage ratio
  • Covenants include a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00, with an option to rise to 4.50 to 1.00 after qualifying acquisitions
