NORTHLAKE, Texas, US — Farmer Bros. Co. announced today the finalization of a new $ 127.5 million, four-year financing arrangement, which includes an $80.0 million asset-backed revolving credit facility and $47.5 million term loan due April 2025. This arrangement replaces its existing revolving credit facility that was scheduled to mature November 2023, and provides significantly more borrowing capacity over the term of the arrangement at a lower overall cost of borrowing.

Additionally, the new arrangement reduces or eliminates several negative covenants in its existing credit facility.

Scott Drake, Chief Financial Officer of Farmer Bros. Co., commented, “We’re pleased to enter into this new financing arrangement, which provides greater flexibility in leveraging our significant real estate holdings and equipment in addition to our traditional ABL assets, and is an important step in preserving our financial liquidity and further solidifying our capital structure.

This new arrangement also lowers the overall cost structure of our debt while extending maturities and eliminating certain covenants, allowing us to more fully focus on our key initiatives to accelerate growth and innovation and better positioning us for the long-term.”
