Ares Capital Corporation ("Ares Capital") (NASDAQ:ARCC) and Ares Strategic Income Fund ("ASIF") announced today renewals, commitment increases and enhanced terms for each of their respective bank-led Revolving Credit Facilities.
Ares Capital increased the commitment on its existing credit facility by approximately $170 million to approximately $5.5 billion, decreased the funded borrowing costs by 0.10% per annum to reflect the elimination of the SOFR credit spread adjustment ("CSA"), and extended the final maturity date to May 2031 for substantially all of the facility. In addition, the facility's uncommitted accordion feature was expanded to allow for an incremental increase of up to approximately $2.7 billion in commitments under certain circumstances. The Ares Capital facility is led by JPMorgan, Bank of America, RBC, SMBC, Truist and Wells Fargo and includes a total of 40 lenders.
ASIF increased the commitment on its existing credit facility by $850 million to approximately $4.1 billion, decreased the funded borrowing costs by 0.10% per annum to reflect the elimination of the SOFR CSA, and extended the final maturity date to May 2031. In addition, the facility's uncommitted accordion feature was expanded to allow ASIF to increase the facility's overall size to a maximum of approximately $6.15 billion under certain circumstances. The ASIF facility is led by JPMorgan, Barclays, BNP Paribas, RBC, SMBC, Truist and Wells Fargo and includes a total of 24 lenders.
The other terms of the facilities remained materially unchanged.
