Summary
Quanta Services, Inc. (PWR) has filed an 8-K report detailing a significant amendment to its credit agreement. Effective October 31, 2017, the company extended the maturity date of its $1.810 billion senior secured revolving credit facility by two years, moving it from December 18, 2020, to October 31, 2022. This amendment also revises the interest rate structure for U.S. dollar and foreign currency borrowings, as well as fees for letters of credit, linking them to the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio. The updated credit terms introduce variable interest rates based on either the Eurocurrency Rate or the Base Rate, plus a spread that fluctuates between 0.125% and 2.000% depending on the leverage ratio. Similarly, letter of credit fees are adjusted. As of the amendment's closing, Quanta had $384.9 million in outstanding letters of credit and $685.0 million in revolving loans, with $740.1 million remaining available under the facility. This extension provides Quanta with enhanced financial flexibility and a longer runway for its operations.
