"We are delighted to close on the lowest spread debt financing in PFLT's 14-year history, which will support the Company's growth and net investment income. The weighted average spread of 159 basis points on $361 million of financing is a 66-basis point reduction from the bank facility this capital is replacing. We are also thrilled about the continued momentum and positive market recognition that our senior lending strategy has received, which is demonstrative of our industry-leading team as well as the merits of our disciplined and differentiated approach to core middle market credit investing," said Arthur Penn, Chief Executive Officer. "We are proud to have onboarded several new investors into our securitization liabilities as part of this transaction and now have over 75 unique investors across our securitization platform. With their support, we were able to issue our largest securitization to date while also achieving our lowest cost of capital to date. Together, these attributes will continue to enable and further enhance PFLT's ability to offer attractive risk-adjusted returns to its investors. With the closing of its eleventh securitization, PennantPark Investment Advisers, LLC currently manages approximately $3.7 billion in CLO assets, and we look forward to continued growth with the support of our current and new investors."
「我們很高興能在PFLT 14年的歷史中,達成最低利差的債務融資,這將支持公司的增長和淨投資收益。融資的加權平均利差爲159個點子,金額爲36100萬美元,這比此次資本所取代的銀行貸款減少了66個點子。我們對我們的高級貸款策略所獲得的持續動能和積極的市場認可感到興奮,這體現了我們行業領先的團隊以及我們在覈心中型市場信貸投資中有紀律和差異化的策略的優點,」首席執行官Arthur Penn說。「我們很自豪在此次交易中引入了幾位新的投資者進入我們的證券化負債,並且現在在我們的證券化平台上擁有超過75位獨特投資者。在他們的支持下,我們能夠發行迄今爲止最大的證券化,同時也實現了迄今爲止最低的資本成本。這些特徵將繼續使PFLT能夠爲其投資者提供有吸引力的風險調整回報。隨着第十一筆證券化的完成,PennantPark Investment Advisers, LLC目前管理約37億的CLO資產,我們期待在現有和新投資者的支持下繼續增長。」
PFLT will continue to retain the Class D Notes and the Subordinated Notes. The reinvestment period for the term debt securitization ends no later than April 2029 and the Debt is scheduled to mature in April 2037. The term debt securitization is expected to be approximately 100% funded at close. In addition, the Company acts as retention holder in the transaction to retain exposure to the performance of the securitized assets. GreensLedge Capital Markets LLC acted as lead placement agent on the CLO transaction.
