CB&I upsizes senior secured credit facility to $625M following Asset Solutions acquisition

CB&I, a provider of integrated storage and asset-management solutions, has closed an upsized senior secured credit facility of $625 million, up from $400 million. The expanded facility comprises a $500 million revolving credit facility and a new $125 million Term Loan A, both maturing on 4 December 2028. The additional capacity replenishes cash used to acquire Asset Solutions, previously part of the Petrofac Group, and enhances financial flexibility for future investments. The revolving credit facility remains undrawn at closing, with CB&I having no funded debt outstanding. Citibank led the syndication, which added Goldman Sachs Bank USA and Zions Bancorporation to the lending group. Existing lenders include Truist Securities, National Bank of Canada, Webster Bank, Texas Capital Bank, Crédit Agricole CIB, Wells Fargo, and J.P. Morgan.

The company beat estimates for earnings per share and net interest income. Webster Financial reported revenues of $735.9 million, up 4.4% year on year, surpassing expectations by 0.9%. However, results were mixed, with the revenue beat offset by a slight miss on tangible book value per share estimates.

Share prices across the sector have held relatively steady since earnings results.
