 HUDSON, Ohio, July 08, 2021 GLOBE NEWSWIRE -- JOANN Inc. NASDAQ: JOAN JOANN, the nations category leader in sewing and one of the fastest growing competitors in the arts and crafts category, announced that it has successfully completed the refinancing of its existing covenant-lite first lien term loan facility due October 2023. The impact of the new 675 million covenant-lite first lien term loan facility is leverage neutral for JOANN as net proceeds will be used to fully repay existing borrowings under the prior first lien term loan facility, with the balance reducing the amount borrowed on its existing asset-based revolving credit facility. The new first lien term loan facility matures on July 7, 2028 and lowers the applicable rate by 25 basis points to LIBOR plus 4.75. The revised pricing terms also reduce the LIBOR floor by 25 basis points to 0.75.
