Committed Credit Facilities
The Company has four committed credit facilities, including a senior secured term loan, under which the Company and its subsidiaries may borrow up to $1,130.0 million, subject to the terms and conditions for these facilities. The amounts outstanding under these credit facilities carry variable rates of interest, thus approximating fair value. The Company’s committed credit facilities consist of the following:
A three-year first-lien senior secured syndicated loan facility is available to the Company for general working capital requirements and capital expenditures. This $475.0 million revolving credit facility matures April 21, 2025.
An unsecured syndicated committed line of credit under which $180.0 million is available to the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, StoneX Financial Inc., to provide short-term funding of margin to commodity exchanges. The line of credit is subject to annual review and its continued availability is subject to StoneX Financial Inc.’s financial condition and operating results continuing to be satisfactory as set forth in the relevant agreement. This facility was amended during the period to increase the amount available from $75.0 million to $180.0 million and extend the maturity to December 11, 2023.
A $400.0 million syndicated committed borrowing facility available to the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, StoneX Commodity Solutions LLC, to finance commodity financing arrangements and commodity repurchase agreements. The facility is secured by the assets of StoneX Commodity Solutions LLC and guaranteed by the Company.
An unsecured syndicated committed borrowing facility under which $75.0 million is available to the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, StoneX Financial Ltd., for short-term funding of margin to commodity exchanges. This facility was amended to extend its maturity to October 14, 2023. The facility is guaranteed by the Company.
Uncommitted Credit Facilities
The Company has access to certain uncommitted financing agreements that support its ordinary course securities and commodities inventories. The agreements are subject to certain borrowing terms and conditions.
Note Payable to Bank
In December 2020, the Company obtained a $9.0 million loan from a commercial bank, secured by equipment purchased with the proceeds. The note is payable in monthly installments, with the final payment due during December 2025. The note bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the Index rate, as defined in the agreement, plus 2.35%.
Senior Secured Notes
On June 11, 2020, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $350 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) at the offering price of 98.5% of the aggregate principal amount. During June 2021, the Company redeemed $1.6 million principal amount of outstanding Notes, for 103% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company used the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to fund the consideration for the acquisition of Gain Capital Holdings, Inc., to pay acquisition related costs, and to fund the redemption of the amount of Gain’s notes outstanding at acquisition.
The Notes will mature on June 15, 2025. Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 8.625% per annum and is payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2020. In connection with issuing the Notes, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $9.5 million, which are being amortized over the term of the Notes under the effective interest method.

As reflected above, some of the Company’s committed credit facilities are scheduled to expire during the next twelve months following the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023. The Company intends to renew or replace the other facilities as they expire, and based on the Company’s liquidity position and capital structure, the Company believes it will be able to do so.
The Company’s credit facility agreements contain financial covenants relating to financial measures on a consolidated basis, as well as on a certain stand-alone subsidiary basis, including minimum tangible net worth, minimum regulatory capital, minimum net unencumbered liquid assets, maximum net loss, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum funded debt to net worth ratio. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in the debt becoming payable on demand. As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under its credit facilities.
