The following is a summary of all debt outstanding:
9.125% Senior Notes due July 2030
On July 7, 2025, we, certain of our subsidiaries (Guarantors), and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (Trustee), entered into an indenture (Indenture), pursuant to which we issued $650.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.125% Senior Notes due 2030 (2030 Notes). The 2030 Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors.
The 2030 Notes mature on July 15, 2030. Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on each January 15 and July 15, commencing January 15, 2026, to holders of record on the January 1 and July 1 immediately preceding the related interest payment date, at a rate of 9.125% per annum.
At any time prior to July 15, 2027, we may redeem the 2030 Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes redeemed, plus an applicable make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any. At any time on or after July 15, 2027, we may redeem the 2030 Notes, at the redemption price of 104.563%, which declines to 100% on or after July 15, 2029, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit our ability, and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to: (i) incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock; (ii) create liens to secure indebtedness; (iii) pay distributions on equity interests, repurchase equity securities, make investments or redeem subordinated indebtedness; (iv) restrict distributions, loans or other asset transfers; (v) consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of our assets to, another person; (vi) sell or otherwise dispose of assets, including equity interests in subsidiaries; (vii) designate a subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture); and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates.
Revolving Credit Facility
On July 7, 2025, we and the Guarantors entered into a credit agreement with DNB Bank ASA, New York Branch, as facility agent and security trustee, and a syndicate of lenders providing for a $250.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility). Amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility, which matures on April 15, 2030, are subject to an interest rate per annum equal to (i) for Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Term SOFR) advances, the aggregate of (a) the Term SOFR for the relevant interest period, plus (b) an applicable margin ranging from 250 to 350 basis points, depending on our total net leverage ratio (Margin); or (ii) for Alternate Base Rate (ABR) advances, the aggregate of (a) the ABR Rate, which equals the highest of (1) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (2) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 0.50%, (3) Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and (4) 1.00%. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires payment of quarterly customary unused commitment fees and if utilized, certain letter of credit and fronting fees.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, representations and warranties, and events of default, along with the following three financial covenants: (i) a minimum liquidity test that the sum of consolidated cash and available commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility shall not be less than the greater of $20.0 million or 10% of net interest-bearing debt as defined in the agreement; (ii) the ratio of net interest bearing debt to consolidated earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest and other debt costs, net and income tax expense shall be equal to or less than 3 to 1; and (iii) the aggregate fair market value of the collateral vessels divided by the total outstanding debt shall be at least 2.5 to 1. We are currently in compliance with these financial covenants.
Vessel Facility Agreements (Facility Agreements)
We signed agreements for the construction of ten new vessels, all of which have been delivered as of June 30, 2026. We entered into Facility Agreements to finance a portion of the construction and delivery costs totaling approximately EUR 24.9 million ($26.7 million). Each of the ten Facility Agreements bears interest at a fixed rate ranging from 2.7% to 6.3% and is payable in ten equal principal semi-annual installments. The Facility Agreements are secured by the vessels, guaranteed by Tidewater as parent guarantor and contain no financial covenants.
