(1)Carrying value approximates fair value.
(2)During the year ended December 31, 2025, we entered into a $240.0 million unsecured term loan agreement (the “$240 million Term Loan”) and drew $150.0 million and $90.0 million in May 2025 and July 2025, respectively.
(3)As of December 31, 2025, our LOC had a remaining borrowing capacity of $394.9 million.
We previously entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which we have access to a $500.0 million LOC and a $300.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the “$300 million Term Loan”). We have the option to increase the borrowing capacity by $200.0 million, subject to certain conditions. On March 1, 2023, we amended the Credit Agreement to transition the LIBOR rate borrowings to SOFR borrowings. The LOC bears interest at a rate of SOFR plus 0.10% plus 1.25% to 1.65% and requires an annual facility fee of 0.20% to 0.35%. For both the LOC and the $300 million Term Loan, the spread over SOFR is variable based on leverage throughout the respective loan terms. On July 18, 2024, we entered into a Second Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the LOC maturity date was extended to July 18, 2028, and this term can be extended for two additional six-month terms, subject to certain conditions. All other material terms, including interest rate terms, remain the same. On October 3, 2024, we repaid the $300 million Term Loan in conjunction with the sale of shares under our prior ATM (see Note 5. Common Stock and Other Equity Related Transactions).

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
