ATI Inc (NYSE: ATI) sets $125M, three-year receivables facility

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

ATI Inc., through its subsidiary ATI Specialty Materials, entered into a new three-year $125 million accounts receivable securitization facility. Under this structure, the subsidiary sells eligible customer receivables to special-purpose entities, which in turn may borrow from or sell receivables to a group of lenders, with PNC Bank acting as administrative agent.

Borrowings under the facility can accrue interest at either a one-month term SOFR-based rate or a daily SOFR-based rate, and are subject to customary fees, covenants and eligibility criteria on the receivables. As of September 25, 2025, approximately $80 million was outstanding under this facility, providing ATI with secured, receivables-backed funding capacity.

Insights

Credit & capital structure analyst

ATI adds a $125M receivables facility, with $80M already drawn.

ATI has implemented a structured finance program where operating receivables are sold into special-purpose entities, which then access up to $125 million of funding. This is a common way to convert trade receivables into flexible, secured liquidity while keeping the operating business relationship with customers unchanged.

The facility runs for three years and uses SOFR-based interest, so funding costs will move with short-term rates. The structure includes criteria, limits and reserves on the receivables, plus standard covenants and events of default, which can constrain usage if receivables quality weakens.

As of September 25, 2025, ATI had about $80 million outstanding, indicating meaningful initial utilization of the program. The overall effect on leverage, liquidity and borrowing costs will depend on how consistently the company uses the full $125 million capacity and how SOFR evolves over the facility’s term.
