Annual interest expense is expected to decrease by approximately $5 million at current SOFR levels, before amortization or further refinancing of the Term Loan.The Company has initiated early repayment of $17 million in existing mezzanine debt, expected to further reduce annual interest expense by $3 million.Teamshares CEO Michael Brown said, “Going public has been a major catalyst for Teamshares: In the past 16 weeks, Teamshares has listed on the Nasdaq, signed LOIs towards our $40 million EBITDA acquisition plan for 2026, arranged funded acquisition financing with a recent preferred instrument, and removed a material short-term maturity. We now have the foundation to execute on our $100 million Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA forecast for 2027 to grow cash flow and long-term shareholder value.”This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Teamshares CFO Brian Gaebe said, “We prioritized speed and certainty of execution to address a near-term maturity while maintaining our ability to fund acquisitions with debt financing that is expected to result in an attractive blended cost of capital. With this financing completed, we can take a more deliberate approach to pursue a more comprehensive financing process that capitalizes on interest from institutional lenders. This private credit financing is ultimately a bridge to the lower spreads we believe we’ll earn from increased scale, cash flow, creditworthiness, and eventually access to the public debt markets.”Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is acting as exclusive capital markets advisor to Teamshares, and Mayer Brown LLP served as legal counsel to Teamshares in connection with the transaction. Holland & Knight LLP served as legal counsel to Sound Point Capital.Additional information regarding the terms of the Term Loan will be available in Teamshares’ Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, also available on the Company’s investor relations website at https://investors.teamshares.com/.This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.About TeamsharesTeamshares is a tech-enabled acquiror of high-quality businesses, intending to be a permanent home for businesses.
