senior secured credit facilityfinancial
"committed $7.0 million to a $25.0 million senior secured credit facility"
A senior secured credit facility is a loan or revolving line of credit where lenders have first legal claim on specific company assets (collateral) and the debt ranks above other obligations for repayment. For investors it signals where a lender sits in the repayment pecking order and how much protection creditors have if the company struggles, affecting credit costs, the company’s ability to borrow more, and potential recoveries in a default — like a mortgage taking priority over other claims on a house.
term loanfinancial
"credit facility consisting of a term loan and a delayed draw term loan"
A term loan is a type of loan that is borrowed for a set period of time, with a fixed schedule for repaying the money, usually in regular payments. It matters to investors because it represents a company's borrowing costs and financial stability; reliable repayment of these loans can indicate strong financial health, while difficulties may signal potential risks.
delayed draw term loanfinancial
"credit facility consisting of a term loan and a delayed draw term loan"
A delayed draw term loan is a financing agreement that lets a borrower take one or more lump-sum loans from a lender at agreed future dates within a set time window instead of receiving all funds up front. It matters to investors because it changes when and how much debt a company will carry, affecting cash flexibility, interest costs and risk exposure—think of it like an approved credit line you only tap when you need cash for a project.
lienfinancial
"The credit facility is secured by a lien on all assets of the borrower"
A lien is a legal claim a lender or creditor places on an asset—like property, equipment, or a bank account—giving them the right to seize or force sale of that asset if the borrower fails to repay what they owe. For investors, liens matter because they reduce the value or saleability of an asset, increase risk of loss if a company defaults, and reveal that cash flow or collateral is already promised to others, much like a mortgage limits what a homeowner can freely sell.
business development companyfinancial
"AFC (Nasdaq: AFCG) is a publicly traded business development company"
A business development company is a publicly traded investment vehicle that lends to and buys stakes in smaller or privately held companies, acting like a combination of a lender, investor, and business partner. It matters to investors because BDCs offer the potential for higher regular income through dividends and diversified exposure to growing businesses, but they can also carry greater credit and liquidity risk than typical stocks or bonds—think higher-yielding but riskier income instruments.
