Amended Term Loan
On December 6, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “2019 Credit Agreement”) that was comprised of a $200,000 term loan (the “Original Term Loan”) and a $50,000 revolving facility (the “Revolver”). The Company amended the 2019 Credit Agreement on August 29, 2021, and then again on October 29, 2021 in connection with the acquisition of Misonix, Inc., in which the Company prepaid $80,000 on the Original Term Loan. The 2019 Credit Agreement, as amended, subsequent to the prepayment, was comprised of a $360,750 term loan (“Term Loan”) and the Revolver.
On July 11, 2022, the Company further amended the 2019 Credit Agreement in conjunction with the acquisition of CartiHeal (the “CartiHeal Acquisition”). Pursuant to that amendment, an $80,000 term loan facility (the “July 2022 Term Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Term Loan Facilities”) was extended to the Company to be used for: (i) the financing of the CartiHeal Acquisition; (ii) the payment of related fees and expenses; (iii) repayment of the draws made on the Revolver; and (iv) working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company, including without limitation for permitted acquisitions.
On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into an additional amendment to the 2019 Credit Agreement to, among other things, modify certain financial covenants, waive covenant noncompliance at December 31, 2022, and to modify interest rates applicable to borrowings under the 2019 Credit Agreement.
On January 18, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company further amended the 2019 Credit Agreement (collectively, with the August 2021, October 2021, July 2022 and March 2023 amendments, the “Amended 2019 Credit Agreement”), to further modify certain financial covenants under the 2019 Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance as of March 30, 2024 with the financial covenants as stated within the 2019 Credit Agreement.
SOFR loans and base rate loans had a margin of 3.25% and 2.25%, respectively, subsequent to July 11, 2022 and prior to the Closing Date. As of the March 31, 2023 amendment, SOFR loans and base rate loans had a margin of 4.25% and 3.25%, respectively. All obligations under the Amended 2019 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and certain wholly owned subsidiaries where substantially all the assets of the Company collateralize the obligations.
The Amended 2019 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including those related to financial reporting and notification, restrictions on the declaration or payment of certain distributions on or in respect of Bioventus LLC’s equity interests, restrictions on acquisitions, investments and certain other payments, limitations on the incurrence of new indebtedness, limitations on transfers, sales and other dispositions of assets of Bioventus LLC and its subsidiaries, as well as limitations on making changes to the business and organizational documents of Bioventus LLC and its subsidiaries. Financial covenant requirements include a maximum debt leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. In addition, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending upon the satisfaction of certain conditions occurring not prior to the delivery of financial statements of the Company for the fiscal quarter ending October 29, 2025, the Company will be subject to certain additional requirements and covenants, including a requirement to maintain Liquidity (as defined in the Amended 2019 Credit Agreement) of not less than $10,000 as of the end of each calendar month during such period. The Term Loan Facilities will mature on October 29, 2026. The Revolver will mature on October 29, 2025.
The January 2024 amendment had deferred financing costs of $1,180, of which $325 was recorded in selling, general and administrative expense within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss and $855 was capitalized on the consolidated condensed balance sheets during the three months ended March 30, 2024. The March 2023 amendment had deferred financing costs of $3,661, of which $1,617 was recorded in selling, general and administrative expense within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss and $2,044 was capitalized on the consolidated condensed balance sheets during the three months ended April 1, 2023. There were no losses on debt refinancing and modification as a result of either the January 2024 or March 2023 amendments.
As of March 30, 2024, $376,241 was outstanding on the Term Loan Facilities, net of original issue discount of $1,535 and deferred financing costs of $1,616. As previously discussed in Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures, the Company made a prepayment of $30,000 on its Term Loan Facilities with the proceeds from the Wound Business divestiture during the second quarter of 2023. Capitalized deferred fees are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the Term Loan Facilities, which approximates the effective interest method. Interest expense includes deferred cost amortization of $381 and $223 for the three months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the Term Loan Facilities was $380,341 as of March 30, 2024. The fair value of these obligations was determined based on the midpoint of the Bloomberg Valuation. This is classified as a Level 2 instruments within the fair value hierarchy.
Revolver and Letters of Credit
The Revolver is a five-year revolving credit facility that includes revolving and swingline loans as well as letters of credit (“LOC”) and, inclusive of all, cannot exceed $45,000 at any one time as the Revolver capacity was reduced at December 31, 2023 in accordance with the 2019 Credit Agreement then in effect. The Revolver credit capacity will be further reduced by $5,000 on June 30, 2024. The Company had $15,000 outstanding borrowings on its Revolver as of March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. LOCs are available in an amount not to exceed $7,500. The Company had three LOCs outstanding as of March 30, 2024, leaving approximately $5,700 available. Revolving loans are due at the earlier of termination or maturity. Swingline loans are available as base rate option loans only and must be outstanding for at least five days. Swingline loans are due the fifteenth or last day of a calendar month or maturity, whichever is earlier.
