Rhea-AI Filing Summary

DIRTT Environmental Solutions Ltd. entered into a letter of offer with Business Development Bank of Canada for a secured term loan of up to C$15.0 million. The company expects to use the proceeds to partially refinance its 6.00% convertible debentures due January 31, 2026, with the remaining C$1.6 million of principal on those debentures to be repaid using cash on hand.

After conditions are met, BDC will disburse C$10.0 million initially and a further C$5.0 million later, with the draw period ending December 4, 2026. The loan bears interest at BDC’s Floating Base Rate, currently 6.55% per annum, minus 0.75%, and matures on April 30, 2032, with monthly principal payments starting May 31, 2026 and monthly interest payments from the first disbursement.

The obligations are secured by first-ranking security over specific equipment, a broader security interest in other personal property, a guarantee from DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc., landlord waivers, and a first readvanceable mortgage of US$5.0 million on the company’s Chicago property. The agreement includes an annual fixed charge coverage ratio covenant of at least 1.10 to 1.00 and a 1.50% per annum standby fee, along with limited annual prepayment without indemnity and broader prepayment options with indemnity.

Insights

DIRTT replaces near-term debenture pressure with long-dated secured BDC debt.

DIRTT Environmental Solutions has arranged a committed loan of up to C$15.0 million from Business Development Bank of Canada, primarily to refinance its 6.00% convertible debentures due January 31, 2026. Using the proceeds plus C$1.6 million of cash on hand to address these debentures reduces a looming maturity and extends part of its funding profile out to a April 30, 2032 term.

The interest rate floats at BDC’s base rate, currently 6.55% per annum, minus 0.75%, meaning debt service will move with market rates. Amortization begins with monthly principal payments from May 31, 2026, which will gradually reduce outstanding principal but increases scheduled cash outflows compared with a bullet maturity structure. The standby fee of 1.50% per annum adds a modest ongoing cost on undrawn amounts.

The loan is heavily secured: specific equipment receives a first-ranking charge, other personal property is pledged, the U.S. subsidiary guarantees the full amount, and there is a readvanceable mortgage of US$5.0 million on the Chicago property. The fixed charge coverage ratio covenant of at least 1.10 to 1.00, tested annually, will tie leverage to cash flow performance. Actual impact on financial flexibility will depend on future earnings relative to these covenant and repayment requirements.
