Insights

Credit & capital structure analyst

Calumet secures longer-dated, $500M asset-based credit flexibility.

Calumet has extended the maturity of its primary credit agreement to January 23, 2031 and set lender commitments at $500.0 million, subject to a borrowing base. This keeps a sizable revolving source of liquidity in place for a longer horizon.

The amendment also updates covenants and events of default to allow one or more new inventory financing transactions, each subject to customary conditions. These structures can shift some working capital funding to separate facilities, depending on terms and execution.

If an inventory financing transaction is completed, total commitments under the credit agreement fall from $500.0 million to $425.0 million. Future disclosures may clarify how much funding is ultimately provided through the main facility versus any new inventory financing arrangements.
