PR reaffirms $4.0B borrowing base, adjusts margin on ratings
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Permian Resources Corporation reported that its subsidiary, Permian Resources Operating, LLC, entered into a Tenth Amendment to its Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The amendment reaffirmed a $4.0 billion borrowing base and kept elected revolving commitments at $2.5 billion.
The amendment also adjusted the Applicable Margin by adding a new borrowing base utilization pricing grid that applies when the Company holds a BBB- or better index debt rating from Fitch. It further provides, subject to certain conditions, for reduced interest rates during an “investment grade period,” generally defined as when the Company has an index debt rating of Baa3/BBB- or better from Moody’s or S&P, respectively, and ending upon the Company’s election or if ratings fall below Ba1/BB+.
