Analysis · SNDA · Industrial Applications And Services
A $380 million senior secured term loan with Ally Bank replaces Sonida Senior Living's existing $122 million Ally facility and refinances the RBC Bridge Facility. The new loan provides an initial $372.5 million advance on 28 communities, with a $7.5 million delayed draw available subject to debt yield and coverage tests. The 5-year term (extendable to 7 years) and interest-only structure push out near-term maturities and reduce refinancing risk, but the variable rate (SOFR + 1.85%) exposes the company to rising interest costs. This is a significant balance sheet restructuring that improves liquidity and extends runway, though it increases total secured debt.
