Easterly Government Properties Closes Five-Year $200 Million Term Loan Facility
Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (NYSE:DEA) (the "Company" or "Easterly"), a fully integrated real estate investment trust focused primarily on the acquisition, development and management of Class A commercial properties leased to the U.S. Government and its adjacent partners, announced today the closing of a new five-year $200 million senior unsecured term loan facility (the "Term Loan"). The Term Loan includes an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase commitments by up to $50 million, subject to certain conditions, for a total facility size of $250 million. The Term Loan will mature in June 2031.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Term Loan to repay borrowings outstanding under its unsecured $400 million revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
"We are pleased to expand our capital base with this new term loan facility," said Allison E. Marino, Easterly’s Chief Financial Officer. "The transaction enhances our liquidity profile and supports our ability to efficiently fund future growth initiatives."
Borrowings under the new Term Loan will bear interest at a rate of SOFR, plus a spread of 1.20% to 1.70%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio. Given the Company's current leverage ratio, the Term Loan’s initial spread to SOFR is set at 1.30%.
