Insights

Amendment trades covenant relief for conditional borrowing limits.

The amendment removes a strict minimum excess availability covenant of $7.5 million, which can ease compliance pressure for XBP Americas. At the same time, lenders added a temporary availability block that cuts capacity if the fixed charge coverage ratio drops below 1.00 to 1.00.

This structure gives the borrower more day-to-day flexibility but adds a performance trigger through June 30, 2026 that can reduce borrowing by the greater of $3.75 million or 5.0% of the borrowing base. Higher advance rates on eligible investment grade billed accounts through September 30, 2026 may partially offset this by increasing borrowing capacity against stronger receivables.

Among other things, the Third Amendment (i) eliminates the covenant requiring the Borrower to maintain a minimum excess availability of $7.5 million; (ii) implements a temporary availability block through June 30, 2026, which reduces borrowing capacity by the greater of $3.75 million or 5.0% of the borrowing base if the Borrower’s fixed charge coverage ratio falls below 1.00 to 1.00; (iii) temporarily increases the advance rate for eligible investment grade billed accounts to 95.0% through September 30, 2026; (iv) adjusts the calculation of the borrowing base; (v) amends the mechanics governing the cash dominion period; and (vi) resets the deferred revolving loan origination fee.

The foregoing description of the ABL Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.4 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the First Amendment, Second Amendment and Third Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, copies of which will be filed as exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

FAQ

What credit agreement did XBP (XBP) amend in this 8-K?

XBP Americas, LLC amended its existing asset-based Credit and Security Agreement dated July 29, 2025. This agreement had already been modified by a First Amendment on December 19, 2025 and a Second Amendment on January 21, 2026, and is now further adjusted by the Third Amendment.

How does the Third Amendment affect XBP (XBP) covenant requirements?

The Third Amendment removes the covenant requiring the borrower to maintain at least $7.5 million of excess availability. This change can reduce the risk of technical covenant breaches, though other protections, such as an availability block tied to financial performance, are introduced to protect lenders.

What is the temporary availability block described for XBP (XBP)?

Through June 30, 2026, if the fixed charge coverage ratio falls below 1.00 to 1.00, borrowing capacity is reduced by the greater of $3.75 million or 5.0% of the borrowing base. This mechanism limits access to liquidity when coverage ratios weaken, reinforcing lender protections.

How do advance rates change under XBP’s (XBP) Third Amendment?

The amendment temporarily increases the advance rate on eligible investment grade billed accounts to 95.0% through September 30, 2026. This lets the borrower draw more against high-quality receivables, potentially offsetting some impact of the availability block and supporting working capital needs.

What other structural changes are included in XBP’s (XBP) Third Amendment?

Besides covenant and advance-rate changes, the Third Amendment adjusts how the borrowing base is calculated, modifies mechanics for the cash dominion period, and resets the deferred revolving loan origination fee. These technical changes fine-tune how the asset-based facility operates day to day.

Where can investors find the full text of XBP (XBP) credit amendments?

The original ABL Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.4 to XBP’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The First, Second and Third Amendments will be filed as exhibits to the company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
