Sky Harbour Announces the Closing of a $200 Million Tax-Exempt Warehouse Drawdown Committed Bank Facility with J.P. Morgan

By: Sky Harbour Group Corporation via Business Wire

September 05, 2025 at 06:31 AM EDT

Sky Harbour Group Corporation (NYSE: SKYH, SKYH WS) (“SHG” or the “Company”), an aviation infrastructure company building the first nationwide network of Home Base Operator (HBO) campuses for business aircraft, announced the closing of a $200 million tax-exempt warehouse drawdown committed bank facility. The initial borrower is Sky Harbour Capital II, LLC (“SKYH Capital II”), a wholly owned subsidiary of SHG. The lender and administrative agent is JPMorgan Chase Bank (“J.P. Morgan”). The initial tax-exempt note underlying the committed facility (the “JPM Facility”) was issued through the Public Finance Authority (Wisconsin) (“PFA”).

The JPM Facility’s principal terms include: drawdowns for eligible new hangar projects, 65% leverage, a 5-year bullet maturity, 80% of (SOFR+0.10%) plus a 200bps applicable margin as the tax-exempt annual interest rate, capitalized monthly interest during the first three years, and no prepayment penalty at the time of refinancing. At present, the applicable floating interest rate is approximately 5.60%. Subject to credit approval, the JPM Facility may be expanded to $300 million. Additional information may be found in our related filing under Form 8-K with the SEC.

Tal Keinan, Sky Harbour’s CEO, commented: “We thank our new lending partners at J.P. Morgan for their trust and their creativity in designing a facility that elegantly meets Sky Harbour’s specific needs.”

Francisco Gonzalez, Sky Harbour’s CFO, commented further: “After a highly competitive process that included numerous banks and products, we determined that the tax-exempt warehouse drawdown committed bank facility that closed yesterday is the most favorable and cost-efficient borrowing mechanism for the funding of our next set of projects. The JPM Facility provides us with flexibility to draw when we need to and refinance into long term bonds at the optimal time.”

McGuireWoods LLP acted as administrative agent and lender’s counsel to J.P. Morgan. Attolles Law, S.C. acted as issuer counsel to PFA. Greenberg Traurig, LLP acted as tax and bond counsel and Morrison & Foerster LLP acted as corporate counsel to the initial borrower, SKYH Capital II. Lexton Infrastructure Solutions LLC acted as financial advisor to the Company.
