PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Limbach Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: LMB) (“Limbach” or the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into a $65 million senior secured credit facility, comprised of a $40 million term loan which will refinance existing indebtedness, and a $25 million delayed draw term loan to be used to finance potential acquisitions. The lead arranger of the term loan facility is Colbeck Capital Management, LLC.
The Company also announced the closing of a $15 million senior secured ABL revolving credit facility with Citizens Bank, N.A., a member of the prior credit facility syndicate. The revolving credit facility will be used for general corporate purposes.
Charlie Bacon, CEO of Limbach, commented, “We are pleased to have successfully concluded our debt refinancing, which provides considerable flexibility for Limbach to grow well into the future. We have worked over the last several months to organize a debt capital structure that supports the Company’s plan for both organic growth and M&A-driven expansion in the coming years. This refinancing creates a capital structure with greater flexibility to support the Company's strategic plan, and we are pleased to have the strong support of our new lending partners as we move forward. We are also pleased to have the continuing support of Travelers Insurance Company as underwriter for our surety bond facility. In the coming days, we expect to release our full year 2018 and fourth quarter financial results, and to hold our quarterly conference call shortly thereafter.”
