Rhea-AI Filing Summary

MYR Group Inc. (MYRG) entered into a new five-year Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement on September 8, 2026 with a bank syndicate led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo. The agreement provides a $690 million revolving credit facility and a term loan facility consisting of a $150 million U.S. dollar tranche and a C$70 million Canadian dollar tranche.

This agreement replaces a prior facility that included a $490 million revolver and a $200 million expansion option and is secured by substantially all of the company’s and its domestic subsidiaries’ assets, with related pledge and guaranty agreements and customary financial covenants, including a maximum Net Leverage Ratio of 3.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0.

Filing Explained

The entered facility sets leverage-linked borrowing and unused-capacity fees; the filing does not report a draw, and payment limits begin above a 2.75 ratio.

The September 8, 2026 agreement is entered, but this filing describes financing capacity and expected uses rather than reporting that any borrowing or proceeds were received.

Borrowing rates vary with the company’s Net Leverage Ratio: the stated margins are 0.25% to 1.00% over the Alternate Base Rate or 1.25% to 2.00% over the Term Benchmark Rate.

The unused portion of the revolving facility carries a leverage-linked commitment fee of 0.20% to 0.30%; letters of credit carry separate stated fees.

The agreement restricts certain payments when the pro forma Net Leverage Ratio exceeds 2.75, alongside the disclosed maximum leverage and minimum interest-coverage covenants.

If an event of default occurs and continues, amounts outstanding may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable under the agreement’s conditions.

The company says the complete credit agreement will be filed as an exhibit to its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2026.

Revolving Facility financial
"The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $690 million"
A revolving facility is a bank loan that works like a company credit card: the borrower can draw funds, repay them, and draw again up to a set limit during the agreement period. It matters to investors because it provides short-term cash flexibility for operations, investments, or emergencies, and the cost or availability of that credit can affect a company’s liquidity, interest expenses, and financial stability.
Term Facility financial
"a term loan credit facility consisting of a U.S. Dollar tranche of $150 million"
A term facility is a loan that a borrower takes out for a fixed period with a set repayment schedule and usually a fixed or variable interest rate, similar to a mortgage with a set end date. Investors care because it changes a company’s debt timeline and cash commitments — knowing when principal must be repaid and how much interest will be paid helps assess financial risk, cash flow stability, and the need for future refinancing.
Net Leverage Ratio financial
"The applicable margin is determined based on the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio"
The net leverage ratio measures how much debt a company has compared to its available assets or earnings, after accounting for its cash and liquid assets. It helps investors understand how heavily a company relies on borrowed money to finance its operations and growth. A higher ratio indicates greater financial risk, while a lower ratio suggests a more cautious approach to borrowing.
interest coverage ratio financial
"including a maximum Net Leverage Ratio of 3.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0"
A measure of how easily a company can pay the interest on its debt, calculated by comparing the earnings it generates from operations to the interest it owes. It matters to investors because a higher ratio means the company can comfortably meet interest payments — like having several paychecks set aside to cover your rent — while a low ratio signals greater risk of missed payments or financial strain.
swingline loans financial
"allows for up to $100 million of letters of credit and up to $25 million of swingline loans"
A swingline loan is a very short-term, on-demand loan that sits inside a larger credit facility to cover immediate cash needs like payroll, small bills, or last-minute payments. Think of it as an emergency overdraft from a lender: it’s quick to draw, repaid fast, and usually carries faster fees, so investors watch it as a signal of a company’s liquidity pressure and potential cost or covenant stress.
letters of credit financial
"Letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility are subject to a letter of credit fee"
A letter of credit is a promise from a bank to pay a seller if the buyer fails to do so, commonly used in trade and large contracts to ensure payment. Think of it as a bank standing in for the buyer, like a certified check or payment insurance that reduces the risk of nonpayment. For investors, letters of credit matter because they affect a company’s cash flow, borrowing needs and contingent liabilities, and signal how much credit support a business requires to secure deals.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
The information described below under “Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant” is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On September 8, 2026, MYR Group Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a five-year Fourth Amended And Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $690 million (the “Revolving Facility”) and a term loan credit facility consisting of a U.S. Dollar tranche of $150 million and a Canadian Dollar tranche of C$70 million (the “Term Facility” and, together with the Revolving Facility, the “Facilities”). The Revolving Facility allows for revolving loans in Canadian dollars and other non-US currencies, up to the U.S. dollar equivalent of $200 million. The Revolving Facility also allows for up to $100 million of letters of credit and up to $25 million of swingline loans. The Company has an expansion option to increase the commitments under the Revolving Facility or enter into incremental term loans, subject to certain conditions, by up to an additional $445 million upon receipt of additional commitments from new or existing lenders. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are expected to be used to refinance existing indebtedness and for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes.
The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s five-year amended and restated credit agreement, dated May 31, 2023, as amended, which included a $490 million revolving credit facility and a $200 million expansion option.
Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (1) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.00%; or (2) the Term Benchmark Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.00%. The applicable margin is determined based on the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility are subject to a letter of credit fee of 1.25% to 2.00% for standby letters of credit or 0.625% to 1.00% for commercial letters of credit, in each case based on the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio. The Company will also be subject to a commitment fee of 0.20% to 0.30%, based on the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio, on any unused portion of the Revolving Facility. The Credit Agreement restricts certain types of payments when the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio, after giving pro forma effect to those payments, exceeds 2.75.
Subject to certain exceptions, borrowings under the Facilities are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries and by a pledge of substantially all of the capital stock of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of the direct foreign subsidiaries of the Company. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, the Company’s domestic subsidiaries also guarantee the repayment of all amounts due under the Credit Agreement. In connection with these commitments under the Credit Agreement, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Second Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement and certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Guaranty. The Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, amounts outstanding under the Facilities may be accelerated and may become or be declared immediately due and payable.
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants, including a maximum Net Leverage Ratio of 3.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0. The interest coverage ratio is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by interest expense. The Credit Agreement also contains a number of covenants, including limitations on asset sales, investments, indebtedness and liens.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, which acted as Joint Lead Arrangers and as Joint Bookrunners for the Credit Agreement, and certain of the lenders and their respective affiliates have from time to time provided financial services to the Company and its subsidiaries for which they have received customary fees.
The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2026.
