DALLAS, Jan. 22, 2024 — Beal Bank is pleased to announce that it has provided of $637,500,000 out of a total of $885,000,000 to refinance an existing term loan of ProFrac Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: ACDC) as majority holder of newly issued $520,000,000 senior secured floating rate notes and sole lender of a $365,000,000 term loan to ProFrac’s wholly owned subsidiary Alpine Silica.
Farzin Dinyarian, Head of Oil & Gas for Beal Bank’s wholly-owned commercial lending subsidiary CSG Investments, Inc., said, “Beal Bank is excited to lend to ProFrac, one of the largest and premier companies in the pressure pumping and in-basin frac sand space. We are proud to support and provide debt to North American oil field service companies.”
The refinancing transactions enhance ProFrac’s financial position by (i) extending debt maturity to 2029 and (ii) creating a bifurcated capital structure between pressure pumping and frac sand businesses. The bifurcated capital structure will best position ProFrac to continue executing on growth-related and value realization opportunities.
