Credit Facility
In fiscal 2022, D&B Inc. entered into a senior secured credit agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a term loan facility (together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Credit Facility”). On November 1, 2024, D&B Inc. entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement with its banking syndicate (the “Fourth Amendment”). The Credit Facility is unconditionally guaranteed by D&B Holdings and certain of D&B Inc.’s existing and future wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries.
The Fourth Amendment, among other things:
provided for a new tranche of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $700.0 (the “Incremental Term B Loans”) with a maturity date of November 1, 2031, and
increased the Revolving Credit Facility by $150.0 to a total of $650.0 and extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility to November 1, 2029.
The proceeds from the Incremental Term B Loans were primarily used to:
redeem the $440.0 of then outstanding senior secured notes, and
pay down $200.0 of the term loans outstanding under the Credit Facility immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment (the “Existing Term B Loans”).
Both the Existing Term B Loans and the Incremental Term B Loans bear interest at Term SOFR or ABR (each, as defined in the amended Credit Agreement) plus (i) in the case of Term SOFR loans, 3.25% per annum and (ii) in the case of ABR loans, 2.25% per annum. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest subject to a pricing grid based on net total leverage, at Term SOFR plus a spread ranging from 2.50% to 3.00% per annum or ABR plus a spread ranging from 1.50% to 2.00% per annum. Unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility incur initial commitment fees of 0.30% to 0.50%. Additionally, the interest rate margin applicable to the Existing Term B Loans and loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility would be subject to an additional 0.25% step-down if a rating of B1/B+ or higher from Moody’s and S&P is achieved (which will step back up if such rating is subsequently not maintained).
A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not to exceed $35.0 is available for the issuance of letters of credit. As of November 4, 2025, we had letters of credit outstanding of $13.7 and an unused commitment balance of $428.3 under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Facility may be increased through incremental facilities, by an amount equal to the greater of (i) $400.0 and (ii) 0.75 times trailing twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus additional amounts subject to compliance with applicable leverage ratio and/or interest coverage ratio requirements.
Restrictive covenants and debt compliance
Our debt agreements contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, place certain limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make loans or advances to subsidiaries and other entities, pay dividends, acquire other businesses or sell assets. The Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain a maximum net total leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of November 4, 2025, we believe we were in compliance with our debt covenants and the terms of our debt agreements.
Interest expense
The Company’s weighted average effective interest rate on its total debt facilities was 8.5% and 9.3% for the nine months ended November 4, 2025 and November 5, 2024, respectively.
