[8-K] Domino's Pizza Inc. Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Domino's Pizza, Inc. filed an 8-K reporting the Ninth Supplement and Series 2025-1 Supplement to its Amended and Restated Base Indenture, and related agreements dated September 5, 2025. The filing describes issuance of Series 2025-1 notes that include Class A-1 variable funding capacity (with approximately $56.4 million of undrawn letters of credit) and fixed-rate Class A-2 notes (4.930% and 5.217% classes). The Series 2025-1 Class A-1 facility carries interest tied to cost of funds plus a 150 basis point margin and a 50 basis point commitment fee on unused capacity, with anticipated repayment on or before July 2030 and two one-year extension options. The filing states the new issuance resulted in cancellation and termination of prior Series 2021-1 and 2022-1 Class A-1 facilities and describes guarantees, security interests in substantially all assets of the securitization entities, customary events of default, and the manager role of Domino's Pizza LLC.

Positive

• Issued Series 2025-1 notes that provide renewed funding capacity and fixed-rate A-2 tranches including 4.930% and 5.217% classes.
• Permanently cancelled prior Series 2021-1 and 2022-1 Class A-1 commitments, simplifying the securitization capital structure.
• Maintains approximately $56.4 million of undrawn letters of credit under the 2025-1 Class A-1 facility, preserving liquidity optionality.

Negative

• Filing highlights substantially increased indebtedness from refinancing transactions and cautions about the company’s ability to pay principal and interest.
• New facility includes fees and margin: A-1 interest at cost of funds plus 150 basis points and a 50 basis point unused commitment fee, increasing financing costs relative to lower-rate alternatives.
• Notes are secured by substantially all assets of the securitization entities and include customary events of default that could accelerate amortization or trigger rapid amortization events.

Insights

Securitization Specialist

TL;DR: The company restructured securitized funding, issuing 2025-1 notes, replacing prior A-1 facilities and securing obligations with guarantor collateral.

The filing documents a standard securitization refinancing: new Series 2025-1 supplements and a Class A-1 note purchase agreement dated September 5, 2025. The transaction provides revolving Class A-1 capacity with letters of credit and fixed-rate Class A-2 tranches. Prior Class A-1 commitments from 2021 and 2022 were permanently reduced to zero and cancelled, and related purchase agreements terminated. The guarantors grant security interests in substantially all assets of the securitization entities, and Domino's Pizza LLC acts as manager per the amended management agreement. The structure and terms described are typical for asset-backed funding programs and shift funding commitments into the 2025-1 framework.

Corporate Finance Analyst

TL;DR: The filing increases secured indebtedness under a new multi-tranche securitization and discloses financing costs and default mechanics.

The Series 2025-1 issuance introduces contractual interest mechanics (cost of funds plus 150 bps for A-1; fixed A-2 coupons at 4.930% and 5.217%) and a 50 bps fee on unused A-1 commitment. The filing cites aggregate outstanding principal across various series (including sizeable A-2 tranches and approximately $1.8 billion of 2021-1 A-2 notes and other series) and notes potential impacts of increased indebtedness referenced in the cautionary forward-looking statements. The document also outlines customary events of default and cure mechanics. These disclosures are material to the company's secured leverage profile but do not include pro forma consolidated debt metrics in the excerpt provided.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

General

On September 5, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Domino’s Pizza Master Issuer LLC, Domino’s SPV Canadian Holding Company Inc., Domino’s Pizza Distribution LLC, Domino’s Progressive Foods Distribution LLC and Domino’s IP Holder LLC, each of which is a limited-purpose, bankruptcy remote, wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the “Co-Issuers”), completed a previously announced refinancing transaction by issuing $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of new Series 2025-1 4.930% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-I, with an anticipated term of 5 years (the “2025-1 Class A-2-I Notes”) and $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of new Series 2025-1 5.217% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-II, with an anticipated term of 7 years (the “2025-1 Class A-2-II Notes” and together with the 2025-1 Class A-2-I Notes, the “2025-1 Class A-2 Notes”) in an offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Co-Issuers also entered into a revolving financing facility on the Closing Date, which allows for the issuance of up to $320.0 million of Series 2025-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1 (the “2025-1 Class A-1 Notes”) and certain other credit instruments, including letters of credit. The 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes and the 2025-1 Class A-2 Notes are referred to collectively as the “2025-1 Notes.”

The 2025-1 Notes were issued pursuant to (i) the Amended and Restated Base Indenture, dated March 15, 2012 (the “Amended and Restated Base Indenture”), as amended by the First Supplement thereto, dated September 16, 2013 (“the First Supplement”), the Second Supplement thereto, dated October 21, 2015 (the “Second Supplement”), the Third Supplement thereto, dated October 21, 2015 (the “Third Supplement”), the Fourth Supplement thereto, dated July 24, 2017 (the “Fourth Supplement”), the Fifth Supplement thereto, dated November 21, 2018 (the “Fifth Supplement”), the Sixth Supplement thereto, dated April 16, 2021 (the “Sixth Supplement”), the Seventh Supplement thereto, dated December 30, 2021 (the “Seventh Supplement”), the Eighth Supplement thereto, dated July 23, 2024 (the “Eighth Supplement”) and the Ninth Supplement thereto, dated September 5, 2025 (the “Ninth Supplement”), the form of which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 4.1 (the Amended and Restated Base Indenture as amended by the First Supplement, the Second Supplement, the Third Supplement, the Fourth Supplement, the Fifth Supplement, the Sixth Supplement, the Seventh Supplement, the Eighth Supplement and the Ninth Supplement being referred to herein collectively as the “Base Indenture”) and (ii) the Series 2025-1 Supplement thereto, dated September 5, 2025 (the “Series 2025-1 Supplement”), in each case entered into by and among the Co-Issuers and Citibank, N.A., as the trustee (the “Trustee”) and the securities intermediary thereunder. The Base Indenture allows the Co-Issuers to issue additional series of notes subject to certain conditions set forth therein, and the Base Indenture, together with the Series 2025-1 Supplement and any other supplemental indenture to the Base Indenture, is referred to herein as the “Indenture.”

The 2025-1 Notes are part of a securitization transaction initiated with the issuance and sale of certain senior secured notes by the Co-Issuers in 2012, pursuant to which substantially all of the Company’s revenue-generating assets, consisting principally of franchise-related agreements, product distribution agreements and related assets, its intellectual property and license agreements for the use of its intellectual property, were contributed to the Co-Issuers and certain other limited-purpose, bankruptcy remote, wholly-owned indirect subsidiaries of the Company that act as guarantors of the notes issued by the Co-Issuers. The Co-Issuers and the Guarantors referred to below under “Guarantees and Collateral” have pledged substantially all of their assets to secure the notes issued pursuant to the Indenture.

2025-1 Class A-2 Notes

While the 2025-1 Class A-2 Notes are outstanding, scheduled payments of principal and interest are required to be made on the 2025-1 Class A-2 Notes on a quarterly basis. The payment of principal of the 2025-1 Class A-2 Notes may be suspended if the leverage ratio for the Company and its subsidiaries, including the Securitization Entities (defined below), is less than or equal to 5.5x.

The legal final maturity date of the 2025-1 Class A-2 Notes is in July of 2055. If the Co-Issuers have not repaid or refinanced the 2025-1 Class A-2-I Notes prior to July of 2030 or the 2025-1 Class A-2-II Notes prior to July of 2032, additional interest will accrue thereon in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 5.00% per annum and (ii) a per annum interest rate equal to the excess, if any, by which (i) the sum of the yield to maturity (adjusted to a quarterly bond-equivalent basis) on the applicable Series 2025-1 Class A-2 anticipated repayment date of the United States Treasury security having a term closest to 10 years plus 6.15%, in the case of the 2025-1 Class A-2-I Notes and 6.25%, in the case of the 2025-1 Class A-2-II Notes, exceeds (ii) the original interest rate.

The 2025-1 Class A-2 Notes are secured by the collateral described below under “Guarantees and Collateral.”

2025-1 Class A-1 Notes

The 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes were issued pursuant to the Base Indenture and the Series 2025-1 Supplement thereto referred to above and allow for drawings on a revolving basis. The 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes will be governed, in part, by the 2025-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement dated September 5, 2025 (the “2025-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement”), among the Co-Issuers, the Guarantors, Domino’s Pizza LLC, as manager, certain conduit investors, certain financial institutions and certain funding agents, and Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., New York Branch, as provider of letters of credit, as swingline lender and as administrative agent, and by certain generally applicable terms contained in the Base Indenture and the Series 2025-1 Supplement thereto. Interest on the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes will be payable at a per annum rate based on the cost of funds plus a margin of 150 basis points. The Co-Issuers have approximately $56.4 million in undrawn letters of credit issued under the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes. There is a commitment fee on the unused portion of the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes facility of 50 basis points. It is anticipated that the principal and interest on the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes will be repaid in full on or prior to July 2030, subject to two additional one-year extensions at the option of Domino’s Pizza LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, which acts as the manager (as described below). Following the anticipated repayment date (and any extensions thereof), additional interest will accrue on the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes equal to 5.00% per annum. In connection with the issuance of the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes and entry into the 2025-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement, the Co-Issuers permanently reduced to zero the commitment to fund the existing $200.0 million Series 2021-1 Variable Funding Notes, Class A-1 (the “Series 2021-1 Class A-1 Notes”) and the Series 2021-1 Class A-1 Notes were cancelled and the 2021-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement, dated April 16, 2021, among Domino’s Pizza Master Issuer LLC, Domino’s SPV Canadian Holding Company Inc., Domino’s Pizza Distribution LLC and Domino’s IP Holder LLC (the “2021 Co-Issuers”), the Guarantors, Domino’s Pizza LLC, as manager, certain conduit investors, certain financial institutions and certain funding agents, and Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., New York Branch, as provider of letters of credit, as swingline lender and as administrative agent (the “2021-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement”) terminated. In addition, in connection with the issuance of the 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes and entry into the 2025-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement, the Co-Issuers permanently reduced to zero the commitment to fund the existing $120.0 million Series 2022-1 Variable Funding Notes, Class A-1 (the “Series 2022-1 Class A-1 Notes”) and the Series 2022-1 Class A-1 Notes were cancelled and the 2022-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement, dated September 16, 2022, among the 2021 Co-Issuers, the Guarantors, Domino’s Pizza LLC, as manager, certain conduit investors, certain financial institutions and certain funding agents, and Barclays Bank PLC, as provider of letters of credit, as swingline lender and as administrative agent (the “2022-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement”) terminated. The 2025-1 Class A-1 Notes and other credit instruments issued under the 2025-1 Class A-1 Note Purchase Agreement are secured by the collateral described below under “Guarantees and Collateral.”

Guarantees and Collateral

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated March 15, 2012 (the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”), among Domino’s SPV Guarantor LLC, Domino’s Pizza Franchising LLC, Domino’s Pizza International Franchising Inc., Domino’s Pizza Canadian Distribution ULC, Domino’s RE LLC, Domino’s EQ LLC and Domino’s Pizza International Franchising of Michigan LLC, each as a guarantor of the 2025-1 Notes (collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of the Trustee, the Guarantors guarantee the obligations of the Co-Issuers under the Indenture and related documents and secure the guarantee by granting a security interest in substantially all of their assets.

The 2025-1 Notes are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Co-Issuers and the Guarantors (such assets, the “Securitized Assets” and the Co-Issuers and Guarantors collectively, the “Securitization Entities”). The 2025-1 Notes are obligations only of the Co-Issuers pursuant to the Indenture and are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by the Guarantors pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. Except as described below, neither the Company nor any subsidiary of the Company, other than the Securitization Entities, will guarantee or in any way be liable for the obligations of the Co-Issuers under the Indenture or the 2025-1 Notes.

Management of the Securitized Assets

None of the Securitization Entities has employees. Each of the applicable Securitization Entities entered into an amended and restated management agreement dated March 15, 2012 (the “Amended and Restated Management Agreement”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of October 21, 2015 to the Amended and Restated Management Agreement (“Amendment No. 1 to the Management Agreement”), by Amendment No. 2 dated as of July 24, 2017 to the Amended and Restated Management Agreement (“Amendment No. 2 to the Management Agreement”), by Amendment No. 3 to the Amended and Restated Management Agreement dated as of April 16, 2021 (“Amendment No. 3 to the Management Agreement”), by Amendment No. 4 to the Amended and Restated Management Agreement dated as of December 30, 2021 (“Amendment No. 4 to the Management Agreement”), by Amendment No. 5 to the Amended and Restated Management Agreement dated as of September 16, 2022 (“Amendment No. 5 to the Management Agreement”) and by the Omnibus Amendment and Reaffirmation Agreement dated as of September 5, 2025, the form of which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.2 (“Omnibus Amendment” and, together with the Amended and Restated Management Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Management Agreement, Amendment No. 2 to the Management Agreement, Amendment No. 3 to the Management Agreement, Amendment No. 4 to the Management Agreement and Amendment No. 5 to the Management Agreement, the “Management Agreement”), by and among the Securitization Entities, Domino’s Pizza NS Co., Domino’s Pizza LLC, as manager and in its individual capacity, and the Trustee (and, solely with respect to the Omnibus Amendment, certain other parties thereto, as set forth in Exhibit 10.2). Domino’s Pizza LLC acts as the manager with respect to the Securitized Assets. The primary responsibilities of the manager are to perform certain franchising, distribution, intellectual property and operational functions on behalf of the Securitization Entities with respect to the Securitized Assets pursuant to the Management Agreement.

These forward-looking statements address various matters including the terms of the Company’s refinancing transactions. While we believe these statements are based on reasonable assumptions,

such forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are more fully described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the section headed “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to our substantially increased indebtedness as a result of our refinancing transactions and our ability to incur additional indebtedness or refinance or renegotiate key terms of that indebtedness in the future, our future financial performance and our ability to pay principal and interest on our indebtedness. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this Form 8-K might not occur. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Form 8-K and should be evaluated with an understanding of their inherent uncertainty.

What did Domino's (DPZ) file in this 8-K?

The company filed supplements and agreements dated September 5, 2025 documenting the Series 2025-1 securitization (notes, supplements, omnibus amendment, management agreement amendments, and related documents).

What are the interest terms for the 2025-1 Class A-1 and A-2 notes?

The 2025-1 Class A-1 notes carry interest at cost of funds plus a 150 basis point margin; the Class A-2 fixed-rate notes include coupons of 4.930% and 5.217% for specified tranches.

Are there unused commitments under the new facility?

Yes. The Co-Issuers have access to the Class A-1 facility with approximately $56.4 million in undrawn letters of credit currently outstanding on that capacity.

Did the new issuance replace prior facilities?

Yes. The issuance permanently reduced to zero and cancelled the commitments and notes under the Series 2021-1 and Series 2022-1 Class A-1 facilities, and their note purchase agreements terminated.
