Short-Term Revolving Facilities

Floor Plan Facility

The Company previously entered into a floor plan facility with a lender to finance its vehicle inventory, which was secured by Carvana LLC's vehicle inventory, general intangibles, accounts receivable, and finance receivables. The facility was amended at various times and effective September 22, 2022, the Company amended and restated the facility to extend the maturity date, with a line of credit of $2.2 billion through September 22, 2023, and $2.0 billion through March 22, 2024, and tie the interest rate to a prime rate plus 1.00%. On May 31, 2023, the Company amended the facility to have a single line of credit of $2.0 billion through March 22, 2024.

Under the facility, repayment of amounts drawn for the purchase of a vehicle should generally be made within several days after selling or otherwise disposing of the vehicle. Outstanding balances related to vehicles held in inventory for more than 150 days require monthly principal payments equal to 10% of the original principal amount of that vehicle until the remaining outstanding balance is equal to the lesser of (i) 50% of the original principal amount or (ii) 50% of the wholesale value. Prepayments may be made without incurring a premium or penalty. Additionally, the Company is permitted to make prepayments to the lender to be held as principal payments under the facility and subsequently reborrow such amounts. The facility also requires monthly interest payments and that at least 12.5% of the total principal amount owed to the lender is held as restricted cash. The Company is also required to pay the lender an availability fee based on the average unused capacity during the prior calendar quarter under the facility.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $557 million outstanding under the facility, unused capacity of $1.4 billion, and held $70 million in restricted cash related to this facility. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company's effective interest rate on the facility was approximately 8.00%.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $569 million outstanding under the facility, unused capacity of $1.6 billion, and held $71 million in restricted cash related to this facility. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company's effective interest rate on the facility was approximately 3.57%.

Active Finance Receivable Facilities

The Company has various short-term revolving credit facilities to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company prior to selling them, which are typically secured by the finance receivables pledged to them (the "Finance Receivable Facilities").

In January 2020, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a lender agreed to provide a revolving credit facility, which was subsequently increased to $500 million, to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company. In June 2021, the Company amended its agreement to, among other things, extend the maturity date to January 24, 2023. In January 2023, the Company amended its agreement to, among other things, adjust the line of credit to $300 million, and extend the maturity date to January 24, 2024.

In February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a second lender agreed to provide a $500 million revolving credit facility to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company. In December 2021, the Company amended its agreement to, among other things, increase the line of credit to $600 million, and extend the maturity date to December 8, 2023.

In April 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a third lender agreed to provide a $500 million revolving credit facility to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company. In December 2021, the Company amended its agreement to, among other things, increase this line of credit to $600 million.

In October 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a fourth lender agreed to provide a $350 million revolving credit facility to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company. On May 8, 2023, the Company settled all outstanding amounts owed and terminated the agreement with the lender.

In March 2022, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a fifth lender agreed to provide a $500 million revolving credit facility to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company. The Company can draw upon this facility until September 18, 2023.

In May 2023, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a sixth lender agreed to provide a $500 million revolving credit facility to fund certain finance receivables originated by the Company. The Company can draw upon this facility until May 31, 2024.

The Finance Receivable Facilities require that any undistributed amounts collected on the pledged finance receivables be held as restricted cash. The Finance Receivable Facilities require monthly payments of interest and fees based on usage and unused facility amounts. The Finance Receivable Facilities self-amortize from the end of the draw period until maturity, offer full prepayment rights, and have no credit sublimits or aging restrictions, subject to negotiated concentration limits. The subsidiaries that entered into these Finance Receivable Facilities are each wholly-owned, special purpose entities whose assets are not available to the general creditors of the Company. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $604 million and $965 million, respectively, outstanding under these Finance Receivable Facilities, unused capacity of $1.9 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, and held $24 million and $36 million, respectively, in restricted cash related to these Finance Receivable Facilities.

Total debt$5,655 $5,649 

Each of the 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes, the 2028 Notes and the 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture entered into by and among the Company, each of the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The 2030 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture entered into by and among the Company, each of the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. Interest on each of the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually, beginning on April 1, 2021 for the 2025 Notes and 2028 Notes, October 15, 2021 for the 2027 Notes, March 1, 2022 for the 2029 Notes, and November 1, 2022 for the 2030 Notes. The Senior Notes mature as specified in the table above unless earlier repurchased or redeemed and are guaranteed by the Company's existing domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than the subsidiaries formed for inventory, finance receivables, securitization facilities, immaterial subsidiaries, or unrestricted subsidiaries). In March 2023, the Company designated ADESA and its subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries under the
Indentures.

The Company may redeem some or all of each issuance of Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in each respective indenture, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Prior to those redemption dates, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount at a redemption price equal to 100% plus the respective interest rate specified in the table above, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings. With respect to the 2030 Notes, the Company may, at its option, redeem in the aggregate of up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes during the period from, and including, May 1, 2025 to, but excluding May 1, 2027, at a redemption price equal to 105.125% of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the relevant redemption rate. In addition, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Senior Notes prior to its redemption date, by paying a make-whole premium plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, it must make an offer to purchase all of the Senior Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, to the repurchase date.

The Indentures contain restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, incur additional debt or issue preferred stock, create new liens, make intercompany payments, pay dividends and make other distributions in respect of the Company's capital stock, redeem or repurchase the Company’s capital stock or prepay subordinated indebtedness, make certain investments or certain other restricted payments, guarantee indebtedness, designate unrestricted subsidiaries, sell certain kinds of assets, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, and effect mergers or consolidations. Certain of these covenants may be suspended if any of the Senior Notes are assigned an investment grade rating from any two of Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, and Fitch Ratings.

As further described under Note 20 — Subsequent Events, on July 17, 2023, the Company entered into a transaction support agreement (the "Transaction Support Agreement") pursuant to which, among other transactions described in Note 20 — Subsequent Events, certain holders of the Senior Notes have agreed to support, approve, implement and enter into definitive documents with respect to certain transactions, including, but not limited to, (i) the exchange of Senior Notes for three tranches of senior secured notes due 2028, 2030 and 2031, respectively (such notes, the "New Secured Notes"), in an aggregate principal amount of up to $4.376 billion (the "Exchange Offers"), and (ii) the solicitation of consents from certain eligible holders of
Senior Notes to amend certain provisions in the Indentures to be conducted simultaneously with the Exchange Offers (the "Consent Solicitations").

Notes Payable

The Company has entered into promissory note and disbursement agreements to finance certain equipment for its transportation fleet and building improvements. The assets financed with the proceeds from these notes serve as the collateral for each note and certain security agreements related to these assets have cross collateralization and cross default provisions with respect to one another. The notes have a fixed annual interest rate, a term of 3.25 years and require monthly payments. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal of these notes had a weighted-average interest rate of 8.2% and 7.5%, respectively, and totaled $2 million and $3 million, respectively, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of which $2 million and $1 million, respectively, was due within the next twelve months and is included in current portion of long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Real Estate Financing

The Company finances certain purchases and construction of its property and equipment through various sale and leaseback transactions. As of June 30, 2023, none of these transactions have qualified for sale accounting due to meeting the criteria for finance leases, or forms of continuing involvement, such as repurchase options or renewal periods that extend the lease for substantially all of the asset's remaining useful life, and are therefore accounted for as financing transactions. These arrangements require monthly payments and have initial terms of 20 to 25 years. Some of the agreements are subject to renewal options of up to 25 years and some are subject to base rent increases throughout the term. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding liability associated with these sale and leaseback arrangements, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $482 million and $483 million, respectively, and was included in long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Financing of Beneficial Interests in Securitizations

As discussed in Note 9 — Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities, the Company has retained certain beneficial interests in securitizations pursuant to the Company’s obligations as a sponsor under the Risk Retention Rules. Beginning in June 2019, the Company entered into secured borrowing facilities through which it finances certain retained beneficial interests in securitizations whereby the Company sells such interests and agrees to repurchase them for their fair value at a stated time of repurchase.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has pledged $278 million and $268 million, respectively, of its beneficial interests in securitizations as collateral under the repurchase agreements with expected repurchases ranging from September 2023 to June 2030. The securitization trusts distribute payments related to the Company's pledged beneficial interests in securitizations directly to the lenders, which reduces the beneficial interests in securitizations and the related debt balance. Pledged collateral levels are monitored daily and are generally maintained at an agreed-upon percentage of the fair value of the amounts borrowed during the life of the transactions. In the event of a decline in the fair value of the pledged collateral, the repurchase price of the pledged collateral will be increased by the amount of the decline.

The outstanding balance of these facilities, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $275 million and $265 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which $106 million and $102 million, respectively, was included in current portion of long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
