In April 2024, the Company completed the sale to certain purchasers of $300.0 million of 8.875% senior notes (the “8.875% Senior Notes”). The Company received the proceeds, net of fees, in April 2024. The 8.875% Senior Notes mature in April 2029.
In July 2023, the Company entered into a senior unsecured note (the “Note Purchase Agreement”). The Note Purchase Agreement provided for the private placement of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11.0% senior notes (the “11.0% Senior Notes”, together with the 8.875% Senior Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Company received the proceeds, net of discount and fees, in July 2023. The 11.0% Senior Notes mature in July 2028.
In October 2021, the Company entered into a line of credit agreement which was amended in April 2024 (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a senior unsecured borrowing of up to $455.0 million of which there was $200.0 million outstanding as of March 31, 2025. The Company may increase the borrowing capacity up to $850.0 million, under certain conditions. Funds available under the Amended Credit Agreement are subject to a borrowing base requirement which is calculated on specified percentages of our real estate inventories. The borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a daily simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate, a term SOFR rate, or a base rate (in each case calculated in accordance with the Amended Credit Agreement), plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin is adjusted by reference to a grid based on a leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the Amended Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2025, the applicable margin was 3.30%. The Amended Credit Agreement matures in April 2027. As of March 31, 2025, the interest rate on the loan was 7.71%.
The Amended Credit Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement contain certain restrictive financial covenants, such as requirements for the Company to maintain a minimum liquidity balance, minimum tangible net worth, and leverage and interest coverage ratios. The Amended Credit Agreement was modified in February 2025 to lower the interest coverage ratio covenant from 2.00 to 1.75 until March 31, 2026, at which point it reverts to the original 2.00 covenant requirement. This modification was retroactive to the measurement of the covenants as of December 31, 2024. The 8.875% Senior Notes do not contain financial covenants. As of March 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
Our Senior Notes are not secured, however, the agreements governing the Senior Notes contain some restrictions on secured debt and other transactions. Our Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by most of our homebuilding segment subsidiaries. The Senior Notes are redeemable for cash in whole or in part at any time at our option, with a standard make whole provision until July 17, 2025, for the 11.0% Senior Notes and April 1, 2026, for the 8.875% Senior Notes, then at premiums that vary based upon the remaining term of the Senior Notes to be redeemed.
