Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
On July 10, 2026, Malibu Boats, LLC as the borrower (the “Borrower”), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Malibu Boats, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to its existing third amended and restated credit agreement dated as of July 8, 2022 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, Malibu Boats Holdings, LLC, parent of the Borrower and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “LLC”), and certain subsidiaries of the Borrower parties thereto, as guarantors (together with Borrower and LLC, collectively, the “Loan Parties”), the lenders parties thereto, and Truist Bank, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), swingline lender and issuing bank. The Credit Agreement provides the Borrower a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $250.0 million and a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million, each with a maturity date of July 10, 2031. The Borrower has the option to request that lenders increase the amount available under the revolving credit facility by, or obtain incremental term loans of, up to the sum of $100.0 million plus such additional amounts so long as the consolidated leverage ratio as of the most recent date for which financial statements have been delivered does not exceed 2.50:1.00, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and only if existing or new lenders choose to provide additional term or revolving commitments. Upon the closing of the Credit Agreement on July 10, 2026, the Borrower borrowed the full $100.0 million under the term loan facility and used the net proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under the revolving facility. The Borrower had $65.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility after such repayment.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to either, at the Borrower’s option, (i) the highest of the prime rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, or one-month Term SOFR plus 1% (the “Base Rate”), (ii) SOFR, (iii) alternative currency term rate, or (iv) alternative currency daily rate, in each case plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.00% with respect to SOFR borrowings, alternative currency term rate loans, and alternative currency daily rate loans, and 0.25% to 1.00% with respect to Base Rate borrowings. The applicable margin will be based upon the consolidated leverage ratio of the LLC and its subsidiaries. The Borrower will also be required to pay a commitment fee for the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, which will range from 0.15% to 0.30% per annum, depending on the LLC’s and its subsidiaries’ consolidated leverage ratio. The Company was not a party to the Existing Credit Agreement and is not a party to the Credit Agreement. As with the Existing Credit Agreement, the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by its parent, the LLC, and, subject to certain exceptions, the present and future subsidiaries of the Borrower, and all such obligations are secured by substantially all of the assets of the LLC, the Borrower and such subsidiary guarantors pursuant to the Fourth Amended and Restated Security Agreement, by and among the Borrower, the LLC, the subsidiary guarantors, and Truist Bank, as administrative agent, dated as of July 10, 2026, and other collateral documents.
The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, and notice requirements for the occurrence of specific events such as the occurrence of any event of default or pending or threatened litigation. The Credit Agreement also requires compliance with certain customary financial covenants consisting of a minimum ratio of EBITDA to interest expense and a maximum ratio of total debt to EBITDA. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary restrictive covenants, among others, regarding indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, investments, restricted payments, disposition of assets (including material intellectual property), transactions with affiliates, negative pledges, hedging transactions, certain prepayments of indebtedness, accounting changes and governmental regulation, in each case, subject to customary exceptions.
The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default. If an event of default has occurred and continues beyond any applicable cure period, the Administrative Agent may (i) accelerate all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement or (ii) terminate the commitments, amongst other remedies. Additionally, the lenders are not obligated to fund any new borrowing under the Credit Agreement while an event of default is continuing.
