FLEETCOR® Completes Credit Facility Extension and Upsizing

FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FLT), a leading global business payments company, today announced that it successfully amended its pro-rata credit facility, increasing the overall facility size from $4.01 billion to $4.5 billion due to high demand and extending the maturity to a new 5-year term of June 2027.

The term loan A was increased from $2.72 billion to $3 billion and the revolving credit facility was increased from $1.285 billion to $1.5 billion. The pro-rata credit facility was converted from a LIBOR to SOFR base rate with margins on borrowings approximately 12.5 bps lower than the pro-rata facility pre-amendment. FLEETCOR anticipates using the increased debt facility for general corporate purposes and to fund future acquisitions.

“We’re super pleased with the broad participation and demand for our refinanced credit facility, resulting in $500 million of incremental liquidity at a slightly lower cost,” said Ron Clarke, chairman and chief executive officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc

“These upsized credit facilities with extended duration and improved terms are reflective of high demand for our credit as a result of the strength, free cash flow and outlook of our Company,” said Charles Freund, chief financial officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc.
