Insights

Upsize and cheaper, longer revolving credit improves near-term liquidity and reduces funding cost.

Jefferson Capital increased committed capacity by $175,000,000 to $1,000,000,000, lowered interest margins by 50%, cut non‑use fees by 5%, eliminated credit spread adjustments, and extended the maturity to October 27, 2030.

The business mechanism is simple: larger capacity plus narrower pricing directly raises available liquidity and lowers borrowing cost on revolver draws. Removal of the tangible net worth covenant loosens a prior balance-sheet maintenance constraint and the syndication led by Citizens Bank brings new lender support.

Dependencies and risks are explicit in the disclosure: the maturity can shorten to 91 days ahead of the earliest final scheduled maturity of the 9.500% Senior Notes due February 15, 2029 or the 8.250% Senior Notes due May 15, 2030, which creates a conditional refinancing timing link. The amendment also notes customary public‑company reporting and change‑of‑control adjustments.

Concrete items to watch include the exercisable revolver capacity at close, any draws or repayments following the $175,000,000 increase, and the two referenced note maturities on February 15, 2029 and May 15, 2030; monitor those dates over the next 18–60 months.

  • A reduction of the non-use fee rate for unutilized commitments under the credit facility by five (5) basis points and a reduction of the maximum applicable non-use fee rate for unutilized commitments to thirty-five (35) basis points
