W&T Offshore Converts Credit Facility to RBL, Boosts Shareholder Return Capacity
WTI has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $1.5.
Summary
W&T Offshore amended its credit agreement effective October 1, converting its $50 million revolving facility to a conventional reserve-based lending structure with a $100 million maximum and $50 million elected commitments, an initial borrowing base of $50 million, and maturity July 28, 2028. The new terms eliminate the 75% excess cash flow sweep, quarterly clean-down requirement, and $100 million minimum PDP PV-10 asset coverage covenant, giving management greater control over cash flow. Restricted payments capacity increased 50% to $15 million annually, with no change to pricing or financial covenants and no amendment fees. CIBC rejoined the bank group with a $10 million commitment, replacing an exiting lender. The company enters Q4 2026 with approximately $234 million in total liquidity. This follows strong Q2 results reported in August, where revenue rose 33% year-over-year and the company swung to a net profit.
