Team, Inc. Announces Extension and Amendment to Credit Agreement

SUGAR LAND, Texas, Sept. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Team, Inc. (NYSE: TISI) (“TEAM” or the “Company”) today announced the successful extension and amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment (i) extends the maturity date to July 7, 2021, (ii) reduces the borrowing capacity from $300 million to $275 million, and (iii) provides an accordion feature, which if certain conditions are met, allows for an increase in total commitments under the facility up to an additional $100 million.

“We value the partnership and continued support of our existing lenders, as well as the addition of a new bank to the group,” said Amerino Gatti, TEAM’s Chief Executive Officer. “This extension is an important part of our ongoing plan to de-leverage the company.  As a result of the successful and continued execution of our OneTEAM integration and transformation program, we were able to reduce our borrowing requirements. Further demonstrating our commitment to profitable and responsible revenue management, improved margins and a reduced cost structure. By extending the term of the credit facility to 2021, we now have additional time to manage our capital structure with minimal immediate impact on our current cash interest expense.”

The Amendment modifies certain financial covenants over the remaining term of the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Amendment reduces the aggregate revolving commitment amount of the Credit Agreement to $225 million and adds a term loan of $50 million, which was used in its entirety to prepay the outstanding principal amount borrowed under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Amendment.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch served as Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer. Citibank, N.A. served as the Syndication Agent and, together with Bank of America Merrill Lynch., as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners. Additional details on the Amendment to the Company’s Credit Agreement were included in today’s Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which investors are encouraged to read in its entirety.
