Key Terms

term loan b financial
A Term Loan B (TLB) is a large, syndicated loan made to a company that is typically sold to institutional investors rather than held by banks; think of it as a long-term mortgage from a group of investors with higher interest and smaller early payments. It matters to investors because it changes a company’s debt cost, repayment schedule and credit risk—factors that affect profit, cash flow and the market value of both the company’s equity and its traded debt.
term loan a financial
Term Loan A is a portion of a company’s syndicated bank loan that is paid down with regular principal installments over a set period, usually carries lower interest and a shorter maturity than other loan tranches. It matters to investors because its scheduled repayments and interest cost affect a company’s cash flow and borrowing needs; heavy near‑term payments can reduce cash available for dividends, investment or increase refinancing risk, much like a mortgage with larger monthly payments limits household flexibility.
revolving credit facility financial
A revolving credit facility is a type of loan that a business can borrow from whenever it needs money, up to a set limit. It’s like having a credit card for companies—allowing them to borrow, pay back, and borrow again as needed, providing flexibility for managing cash flow or funding short-term expenses.
euribor financial
Euribor is the benchmark interest rate at which banks in the eurozone lend short-term money to one another and is published for several maturities (overnight to one year). Investors watch it because it forms the baseline for many loans, mortgages, bonds and derivatives—like the temperature reading that helps predict how hot borrowing costs and returns will be across the market.
term sofr financial
Term SOFR is a benchmark interest rate that reflects the cost of borrowing money over a specific period, based on actual transactions in the financial markets. It is used by lenders and borrowers to set the interest rates on loans and financial contracts, helping to ensure rates are fair and transparent. For investors, understanding term SOFR helps gauge borrowing costs and the overall direction of interest rates in the economy.
net senior secured leverage ratio financial
A measure of how much top-priority, collateralized debt a company has compared with its ability to generate cash from operations, usually expressed as a multiple of annual operating cash flow. Think of it like asking how many years of current business cash flow would be needed to pay off the secured portion of the company’s debt after using available cash; lower numbers mean less risk for creditors and generally more financial flexibility for investors.
