December 05, 2023 5:45 PM EST | Source: Trican Well Service Ltd.

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - December 5, 2023) - Trican Well Service Ltd.(TSX: TCW) ("Trican" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its revolving credit facility ("RCF").

Trican has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of Canadian banks which amends and extends its RCF (the "Amended RCF"). The principal changes included in the Amended RCF are as follows:

  • a two-year extension of the maturity date from December 5, 2024 to December 4, 2026;
  • updates to certain pricing metrics reflecting current bank market conditions and the Company's strong financial position; and
  • an increase in available borrowing capacity to $150 million from $125 million to provide additional liquidity and credit availability throughout the extended term of the agreement.

There were no changes to the financial covenant package or permitted indebtedness terms.

Trican believes that this Amended RCF provides ample liquidity for its existing business, as Trican exited Q3 2023 with available cash of $44.5 million and no amounts drawn on the RCF.

The Amended RCF continues to be led by The Bank of Nova Scotia acting as lead arranger, sole bookrunner and administrative agent and is comprised of five banks - all of which were participants in the previous facility. Trican will pay customary fees and expenses at prevailing market rates to the lending syndicate as a condition of this amendment.

How does revolving credit work? ›

Key Takeaways. Revolving credit is a line of credit that remains open even as you make payments. You can access money up to a preset amount, known as the credit limit. When you pay down a balance on the revolving credit, that money is once again available for use, minus the interest charges and any fees.

Is a revolving credit facility the same as an overdraft? ›

Unlike a term loan with fixed payments, a revolving loan facility has no established term. Money is withdrawn by the company, reducing the amount available to borrow. It is then paid back, replenishing the line of credit.

What is the difference between a loan and a RCF? ›

A term loan involves borrowing a fixed amount of money, repaying this sum with interest over a specified term. Conversely, a revolving credit facility operates similarly to a credit card. This affords businesses a credit limit that they can borrow against, repay and borrow again.
