Cable One Launches Debt Exchange Offer to Fund MBI Acquisition, Convert Term Loans
Summary
Cable One has commenced an exchange offer to convert MBI term loans into a mix of cash and new first-lien term loans. This initiative is directly tied to funding the planned acquisition of the remaining MBI equity. The new term loans will bear interest at Term SOFR +2.25% or +3.00% with maturities up to six or seven years. This follows an 8-K filed earlier today detailing a major debt exchange and refinancing, which is a critical step for the company given its recent revenue and EBITDA declines and subscriber losses. The MBI acquisition is expected to close on or before October 1, 2026.
