Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
Our fifth amended and restated credit agreement dated as of April 8, 2024, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “SSRCF”). The SSRCF had a borrowing capacity of $1,250.0 and includes sub-limits for letters of credit and swingline loans. At June 30, 2025, there were $225.4 in borrowings outstanding under the SSRCF bearing an interest rate of 5.6% (7.0% as of December 31, 2024) and $272.5 in letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding supported by the SSRCF. As of June 30, 2025, we had unused borrowing capacity of $752.1.
A portion of borrowings outstanding under the SSRCF are denominated in euros (“EUR Revolver Borrowings”). EUR Revolver Borrowings outstanding were euro 78.0 million (equivalent to $91.4) at June 30, 2025 and euro 78.0 million (equivalent to $81.0) at December 31, 2024.
Significant financial covenants for the SSRCF include financial maintenance covenants that (i) require the ratio of the amount of Chart and its subsidiaries’ consolidated total net indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA to be less than the Maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio Levels and (ii) require the ratio of the amount of Chart and its subsidiaries’ consolidated EBITDA to consolidated cash interest expense to be greater than the Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio Levels. The SSRCF includes a number of other customary covenants. At June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants.
Term Loans
Chart has term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $1,581.0 under the Credit Agreement, which mature on March 18, 2030 (“term loans due March 2030”). As of June 30, 2025, the term loans due March 2030 bore an interest rate of 6.8% (7.1% as of December 31, 2024). The effective interest rate on the term loans due March 2030 is 9.1% after accounting for original issue discount and debt issuance costs.
Significant financial covenants and customary events of default for the term loans due March 2030 are substantially identical to those in the SSRCF.
Other Debt Facilities
We have local credit facilities to meet local working capital demands, fund letters of credit and bank guarantees, and support other short-term cash requirements. The facilities generally have variable interest rates and are denominated in local currency but may, in some cases, facilitate borrowings in multiple currencies. As of June 30, 2025, we had additional capacity of U.S. dollar equivalent $123.3.
Certain of our other debt facilities allow us to request bank guarantees and letters of credit. None of these facilities allow revolving credit borrowings. We have letters of credit and bank guarantees outside of our Credit Agreement that totaled U.S. dollar equivalent $192.2 and $173.8 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
