Sprout Social, Inc. Debt Disclosure
On August 1, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the banks and other financial institutions or entities party thereto as lenders and MUFG Bank, LTD. as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $100 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). Borrowings under the Facility may be used to finance acquisitions and other investments permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.
On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”, and the Credit Agreement as amended thereby, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) which, among other things, extended the maturity date of the Facility from August 1, 2028 to April 4, 2030 and revised the manner in which the applicable interest rate is determined from a liquidity based determination to a leverage based determination. In addition, the Amendment removed the minimum liquidity and annual recurring revenue covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and replaced them with financial covenants as to (i) maximum Consolidated Senior Net Leverage Ratio and (ii) minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (each as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). As of December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with such financial covenants in the Amended Credit Agreement.
Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, borrowings under the Facility may be designated as SOFR Loans or ABR Loans (each as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), subject to certain terms and conditions under the Amended Credit Agreement, and bear interest at a rate of either (i) SOFR (subject to a 1.0% floor), plus 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 2.75% based on the Company’s Consolidated Senior Net Leverage Ratio or (ii) ABR (subject to a 2.0% floor) plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% based on the Company’s Consolidated Senior Net Leverage Ratio. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the borrowings under the Facility were designated as SOFR Loans and the weighted average interest rate in effect for the outstanding balance was approximately
6.71%. The Facility also includes a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the Facility of 0.30% or 0.35% based on the Company’s Consolidated Senior Net Leverage Ratio.
The Amended Credit Agreement includes customary conditions to credit extensions, covenants and customary events of default, including restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur liens, incur indebtedness, make or hold investments, execute certain change of control transactions, business combinations or other fundamental changes to its business, dispose of assets, make certain types of restricted payments, including dividends and other distributions to stockholders, enter into certain related party transactions or amend or terminate certain contracts, subject to customary exceptions.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an outstanding balance of $40 million under the Amended Credit Agreement.
Debt issuance costs associated with the Facility were recorded to Other assets, net within the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized as interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the Facility.
The Company is contingently liable under two standby letters of credit which are required as security for the Company’s current office leases (refer to Note 6). The agreements allow the Company to elect to secure the letters of credit with restricted cash or by reducing the revolving credit facility borrowing capacity under the Facility. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $2.7 million in secured letters of credit outstanding, respectively. At December 31, 2025, $2.0 million of the outstanding letters of credit were secured through a reduction in the Facility’s borrowing capacity, with the remaining amount secured by restricted cash.

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.
