Insights
Crescent Capital BDC adds long-dated unsecured debt with swaps to floating.
Crescent Capital BDC is expanding its funding through the Series 2025A senior unsecured notes, totaling up to $185.0 million across three tranches. Tranche A and B are already issued with maturities in 2029 and 2031, giving the company longer-term fixed-rate debt.
The company simultaneously entered interest rate swaps on Tranche A and B, each with a notional of $67.5 million. Under these swaps, it receives the notes’ fixed coupons and pays three month term SOFR plus spreads of 2.5325% and 2.8050%, effectively turning those borrowings into floating-rate obligations.
This structure shifts interest-rate sensitivity toward short-term SOFR, while keeping the legal maturities of the notes in place. Actual impact on earnings and risk will depend on future SOFR levels and how the expected Tranche C issuance on May 22, 2026 is ultimately used in the business.
