Long-Term Debt
On December 19, 2024, the Company entered into a First Lien Credit Agreement (the “2024 Credit Agreement”), which consists of senior secured credit facilities of a $410.0 million USD-denominated first lien term facility (the “Term Facility”) and a $50.0 million revolving facility available in USD and Euros (the “Revolving Facility” and together with the Term Facility, the “Facilities”). The Term Facility matures in December 2031 and the Revolving Facility matures in December 2029. Borrowings under the Facilities, at our option, bear interest at either (1) the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus 4.50% or (2) the base rate plus 3.50%, in each case assuming a First Lien Leverage Ratio, as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement, of greater than 3.60:1.00, and subject to a leverage-based step-down to 4.25% for SOFR borrowings and 3.25% for base rate borrowings, respectively. The interest rate for the Term Facility as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 8.42% and 8.85%, respectively, and the effective interest rate was 9.30%.
As of December 31, 2025, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility includes borrowing capacity available for standby letters of credit of up to $50.0 million. Any issuance of letters of credit will reduce the amount available under the Revolving Facility. As of December 31, 2025, we had $5.9 million committed to outstanding letters of credit, leaving net availability under the Revolving Facility at $44.1 million.
The Facilities provide the Company with the option to increase commitments under the Facilities in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $85.0 million and 100% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement), plus certain voluntary prepayments (and in the case of the Revolving Facility, to the extent such voluntary prepayments are accompanied by permanent commitment reductions under the Revolving Facility), plus unlimited amounts subject to the relevant net leverage ratio tests and certain other conditions.
The obligations of (i) Ranpak Corp. (the “U.S. Borrower”) under the Facilities and certain of its obligations under hedging arrangements and cash management arrangements are guaranteed by Ranger Pledgor LLC (“Holdings”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ranpak Holdings Corp., and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned U.S.-organized restricted subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower (together with Holdings, the “ U.S. Guarantors”) and (ii) Ranpak B.V. (the “Dutch Borrower”) under the Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Guarantors and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned Dutch-organized restricted subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower (the “Dutch Guarantors”, and together with the U.S. Guarantors, the “Guarantors” or the “Borrowers”), in each case, other than certain excluded subsidiaries. The Facilities are secured by (i) a first priority pledge of the equity interests of the Borrowers and of each direct, wholly-owned restricted subsidiary of any Borrower or any Guarantor and (ii) a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors (in each case, subject to customary exceptions), provided that obligations of the U.S. Borrower and U.S. Guarantors under the Facilities were not secured by assets of the Dutch Borrower or any Dutch Guarantor.
The Revolving Facility requires the Borrowers to maintain a maximum First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2024 Credit Agreement) no greater than 7.65:1.00. This “springing” financial covenant will be tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter, but only if on such date the sum of (i) the principal amount of outstanding revolving loans under the Revolving Facility and (ii) unreimbursed drawings on letters of credit under the Revolving Facility, net of certain unrestricted cash amounts, exceeds 40% of the total revolving commitments under the Revolving Facility.
The 2024 Credit Agreement also contains a number of customary negative covenants. Such covenants, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Borrowers, their restricted subsidiaries, and where applicable, Holdings, to: (i) incur additional indebtedness, issued disqualified stock and make guarantees; (ii) incur liens on assets; (iii) engage in mergers or consolidations or fundamental changes or asset sales; (v) pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock; (vii) make investments, loans and advances, including acquisitions; (viii) amend or otherwise alter organizational documents and other material agreements; (ix) enter into certain agreements that would restrict the ability to incur liens on assets or restrict our ability to pay dividends, make loans or transfer assets among the Company’s subsidiaries; (x) prepay, redeem or purchase certain junior indebtedness; and (xi) enter into sale-leaseback transactions. The aforementioned restrictions are subject to certain exceptions, including customary exceptions that grant the Borrower continued flexibility to operate and develop its businesses. The 2024 Credit Agreement also contains certain customary representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative covenants, including covenants governing transactions with affiliates and permitted activities of the direct parent holding company of the U.S. Borrower other than passively holding the equity interest in the U.S. Borrower, as well as certain financial tests and ratios. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of December 31, 2025.
