HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital Enters $2.25B Revolver, $400M Term Loan
What Happened
- On July 14, 2026, HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc. announced a new $2.25 billion, 5‑year unsecured revolving credit facility (the New Credit Agreement) led by JPMorgan Chase as administrative agent and sustainability structuring agent, replacing its prior $1.825 billion revolver from April 2024. The new revolver matures in July 2031.
- On the same date the Company entered a new $400 million, 3‑year senior unsecured term loan (the New Term Loan Agreement), also with JPMorgan as administrative agent, replacing the Company’s prior $250 million term loan (April 2024) and $250 million delayed‑draw term loan (Nov 2025), which were terminated July 14, 2026.
Key Details
- Revolver: $2,250,000,000 commitment; maturity July 2031; current pricing = Term SOFR + 157.5 bps (reflects current credit rating less a 5 bps CarbonCount® adjustment); current undrawn commitment fee = 27 bps.
- Prior revolver: $1,825,000,000; maturity April 2028 (replaced).
- Term loan: $400,000,000 principal; 3‑year facility; current margin = 1.45% over Term SOFR (a 33 bps reduction vs. the weighted average spreads of prior term facilities at close).
- Sustainability linkage: both facilities use CarbonCount®‑based adjustments — interest margins can move up/down (up to 0.10%) and commitment fee adjustments (up to 0.01%) based on CarbonCount performance. Obligations are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries; agreements include customary covenants and events of default.
Why It Matters
- The transactions increase liquidity (larger revolver) and extend the maturity profile (revolver now maturing in 2031), reducing near‑term refinancing risk for investors to monitor.
- Pricing improvements (lower current spreads/fees and a 33 bps reduction on the new term loan) can reduce interest expense versus the prior facilities, improving cash flow flexibility.
- The CarbonCount® sustainability adjustments link borrowing costs to sustainability performance — investors should note this feature as it ties financing economics to ESG metrics.
