2022-1 Securitization Senior Notes
In conjunction with the issuance of the 2022-1 Securitization Senior Notes, Driven Brands Funding, LLC (“the Issuer”) and Driven Brands Canada Funding Corporation (together “the Co-Issuers”) also issued Series 2022-1 Class A-1 Notes in the amount of $135 million, which can be accessed at the Co-Issuers’ option if certain conditions are met.
Series 2024-1 Variable Funding Securitization Senior Notes
In July 2024, the Co-Issuers issued Series 2024-1 Variable Funding Senior Notes, Class A-1 (the “2024 VFN”) in the revolving amount of $400 million. The 2024 VFN have a final legal maturity date in October 2054. The commitment under the 2024 VFN is set to expire in October 2029, with the option of two one-year extensions. The 2024 VFN are secured by substantially all assets of the Co-Issuers and are guaranteed by the Co-Issuers and each of their respective subsidiaries. Borrowings incur interest at the Base Rate plus an applicable margin or SOFR plus an applicable margin. As of June 28, 2025, there were no amounts outstanding under the 2024 VFN and $26 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduced the borrowing availability under the 2024 VFN.
Driven Holdings Revolving Credit Facility
In May 2021, Driven Holdings, LLC, (the “Borrower”) a Delaware limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Driven Brands Holdings Inc., entered into a credit agreement to secure a revolving line of credit with a group of financial institutions (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which provides for an aggregate amount of up to $300 million, and had a maturity date in May 2026 (the “Credit Agreement”). In February 2025, the Borrower entered into an amendment extending the Credit Agreement maturity date to February 2030, subject to a springing maturity in September 2028, in the event that (i) more than $100 million of the Company’s term loans are outstanding as of September 2028 and (ii) as of September 2028, the maturity date of such term loans has not been extended to a date that is after the latest revolving maturity date. Borrowings will incur interest at a rate equal to SOFR plus an applicable term adjustment between 2.00% and 2.25%. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes periodic commitment fees based on the available unused balance and a quarterly administrative fee.
There was $180 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 28, 2025 with $65 million of borrowings and $75 million of repayments made during the six months ended June 28, 2025. As of June 28, 2025, there was $6 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduced the borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility.
Term Loan Facility
In December 2021, the Borrower amended the Credit Agreement to provide for a new term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), which has an initial aggregate commitment of $500 million, with loans and other extensions of credit thereunder
maturing in December 2028. The Company made repayments of $268 million during the second quarter of 2025, primarily from proceeds received through the sale of the U.S. Car Wash business.
The Company’s debt agreements are subject to certain quantitative and qualitative covenants. As of June 28, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries were in material compliance with such covenants.
