Amendment to Revolving Credit Facility Executed
Berlin, Germany (31 May 2022) – On 30 May 2022, SIGNA Sports United GmbH and the lenders under the company’s revolving credit facility (RCF) have entered into an amendment agreement to the existing revolving credit facility.
The RCF amendment agreement (i) amends and restates certain provisions of the RCF, including, in particular, the extension and increase option as well as certain minimum cash requirements and (ii) provides for an incremental funding obligation and certain additional information undertakings of the company. Furthermore, the RCF amendment agreement suspends the net leverage ratio testing covenant to cure a formal breach by the company of such covenant as of 31 March 2022 and amends the consolidated adjusted EBITDA thresholds which the company will be required to maintain in its fiscal years 2023 and 2024.
The RCF amendment agreement also provides for changes and restatements of other provisions, covenants and conditions precedent, including an obligation to secure additional liquidity of up to EUR 200 million by 30 September 2022. On 3 May 2022 SIGNA Sports United N.V. entered into a EUR 50 million revolving credit agreement with SIGNA Holding GmbH, an affiliate of SIGNA Sports United’s largest shareholder SISH. Under the revolving credit agreement, SIGNA Holding GmbH as lender also agreed to provide the company an additional amount of up to EUR 50 million during the company’s fiscal year 2023 in accordance with the terms of the revolving credit agreement, if the company requires additional liquidity in fiscal year 2023 and provided that an external capital raise in excess of certain thresholds will not be available. The revolving credit facility will be utilised to fund working capital needs, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The remaining EUR 100 million is anticipated to be funded via a capital increase or other form of capital raising by the end of the fiscal year 2022. The Company is confident the additional liquidity will be sufficient to fund its current organic growth plans.
