NexPoint Real Estate Finance increased its senior secured term loan facility with Mizuho from $375 million to $450 million, with $412.2 million already outstanding. The amendment also restructures mandatory prepayments and expands a total return swap, transferring $144.3 million in cash collateral to Mizuho. This provides additional liquidity against a backdrop of going-concern risk disclosed in the recent 10-Q, where $118.5 million of debt matures within 12 months. The larger facility and TRS amendment reduce net interest cost but increase collateral encumbrance and add an upfront fee.
