BrightView Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BV) (“Company”) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, BrightView Funding LLC, has increased the overall size of its existing receivables financing agreement (the “Receivables Facility”) from $275 million to $325 million and extended its maturity date from June 2025 to June 2027. The Receivables Facility, a flexible source of debt and the Company’s least costly borrowing method, now includes an “accordion feature” that allows for an additional $100 million increase to the borrowing capacity. PNC Bank, National Association will continue to serve as administrative agent.

The amendment to the Receivables Facility improves the leverage-based pricing tiers, reduces interest margin across all tiers, reduces the fee for unused capacity, and features an improved structure for better cash management and utilization. The new structure allows the Company to efficiently utilize its excess cash to pay down a portion of its debt under the facility, approximately $75 million. These changes, combined with improved pricing, are expected to result in interest expense savings of more than $5 million per year.

“As with the recent repricing of our term loan, amending the Receivables Facility represents another opportunity to enhance our balance sheet flexibility and reduce costs,” said Brett Urban, BrightView Chief Financial Officer. “The success of achieving the tight-end target on the term loan reprice, and the favorable terms of this transaction, demonstrate the confidence of our lenders and investors. These actions exemplify our commitment to sustained profitable growth.”
