New Credit Agreement In order to refinance its prior credit facility, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, dated as of September 10, 2025 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, Accel Entertainment LLC (the “Borrower”), the lenders from time to time party thereto, CIBC Bank USA, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders and lead arranger, Fifth Third Bank, National Association, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association, and Truist Securities, Inc., as joint lead arrangers, and Bank of America, N.A. as documentation agent. The Credit Agreement establishes a: •$300.0 million revolving credit facility, including a letter of credit facility with a $15.0 million sublimit and a swing line facility with a $25.0 million sublimit, and •$600.0 million term loan facility. The maturity date of the Credit Agreement is September 10, 2030. Proceeds of the initial borrowings under the Credit Agreement were used to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness and terminate all commitments under the Company’s prior credit agreement, dated as of November 13, 2019, as amended. The Company incurred $4.1 million of debt issuance costs related to the Credit Agreement, of which $3.8 million are being amortized over the life of the Credit Agreement. The Company also recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $1.1 million due to the partial extinguishment associated with a lender whose borrowing capacity decreased and the complete extinguishment for those lenders who are no longer participating. The obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement are (i) guaranteed by the Company and each of the Borrower’s existing and future material domestic subsidiaries and (ii) secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, as well as substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and the Borrower’s existing and future material domestic subsidiaries, in each case subject to certain customary exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement. At the Borrower’s election, borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at either (i) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, (b) the prime rate announced by CIBC Bank USA, or (c) 1-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) plus 1% or (ii) Term SOFR for an applicable interest period, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined by reference to the Borrower’s First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and ranges from (i) 0.75% to 1.75% for base rate borrowings and (ii) 1.5% to 2.5% for Term SOFR borrowings. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted-average interest rate on the Company’s borrowings was approximately 6.5%. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including limitations on the ability of the Company, the Borrower, and their restricted subsidiaries to, amongst other things, grant additional liens, incur additional indebtedness, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and make restricted payments. The Credit Agreement also requires the Borrower to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, (i) a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio no greater than 4.75 to 1.00 and (ii) a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least 1.20 to 1.00. The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which could permit the administrative agent to, amongst other things, declare all amounts owing under the credit facilities to be immediately due and payable, exercise remedies with respect to the collateral, and terminate the lenders’ commitments thereunder. The failure to pay certain amounts owing under the Credit Agreement may result in an increase in the interest rate applicable thereto. Interest rate caplets The Company manages its exposure to some of its interest rate risk through the use of interest rate caplets, which are derivative financial instruments. On January 12, 2022, the Company hedged the variability of the cash flows attributable to changes in the 1-month SOFR interest rates on the first $300 million of the term loan under the Company’s prior credit agreement by entering into a 4-year series of 48 deferred premium caplets (“caplets”), which remain in effect under the new Credit Agreement and are set to expire in January 2026. The Company recognized an unrealized loss, net of taxes, o n the change in fair value of the caplets of $1.1 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. In comparison, the Company recognized an unrealized loss, net of taxes, of $4.1 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. For more information on how the Company determines the fair value of the caplets, see Note 12. T he Company also recognized interest income on the caplets of $1.8 million and $5.3 million for the three and nine m onths ended September 30, 2025, respectively. In comparison, the Company recognized interest income on the caplets of $2.6 million and $7.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. These amounts are reflected in interest expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income.
