AUSTIN, Texas, June 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Summit Hotel Properties, Inc. (NYSE: INN) (the “Company”) today announced that it has successfully completed the refinancing of its $600 million senior unsecured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which is comprised of a $400 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and $200 million senior unsecured term loan (the “Term Loan”).
“We greatly appreciate the ongoing support of our lending partners and are extremely pleased with the execution of this credit facility refinancing. The credit facility further enhances our well-positioned balance sheet by extending maturity dates, maintaining pricing, and preserving overall flexibility to execute on our strategic initiatives,” commented Trey Conkling, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
The amended and restated credit agreement provides for a maturity date of June 2028 for both the Revolver and Term Loan, including extension options. The pricing grid from the prior credit facility has been maintained at a range of 140 to 240 basis points for the Revolver and 135 to 235 basis points for the Term Loan, each over the applicable adjusted Term SOFR rate. Other terms of the agreement are similar to the Company’s previous credit facility agreement.
As a result of this refinancing, the Company’s average length to maturity has been increased to over three years, including extension options, with no more than 25% of the Company’s pro rata outstanding debt maturing in any single year. Additionally, the Company currently has nearly $450 million of pro rata total liquidity and continues to maintain approximately 80% pro rata fixed interest rate debt and preferred equity capital after giving effect to interest rate derivative agreements.
