PARR Par Pacific Holdings Inc

Par Pacific Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: PARR) (“Par Pacific”) today announced it expects to reprice and allocate its existing term loan credit agreement due 2030 (the “Term Loan Facility”). The repricing amendment, which is subject to execution of definitive documentation and customary closing conditions, will reduce the Applicable Margin under the Term Loan Facility by 50 basis points, such that Base Rate loans and SOFR loans will bear interest at the applicable base rate plus 2.75% and 3.75%, respectively. In addition, the amendment will eliminate the Term SOFR Adjustment of 10 basis points with respect to loans under the Term Loan Facility.

On March 22, 2024, Par Pacific announced that Moody’s Investors Service upgraded the company’s corporate family rating to Ba3 from B1. The amendment provides that if Par Pacific receives a further ratings upgrade from S&P, the annual interest rates under the Term Loan Facility will be reduced by an additional 0.25%.

“Our strong operating performance and record financial results over the past year have enabled us to reprice our term loan facility on improved terms,” said Shawn Flores, Chief Financial Officer of Par Pacific. “This amendment is expected to provide over $3 million in annual cash savings and is in addition to the estimated $10 million in annual savings associated with the recently announced increase to the asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL”) and replacement of the Hawaii intermediation facility.”
