CyrusOne Inc. Announces Amended $2.5 Billion Unsecured Credit Facility

Company Extends Maturity Dates and Decreases Borrowing Rates

DALLAS--()--CyrusOne Inc. (“CyrusOne” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CONE), a premier global data center REIT, today announced that its operating partnership, CyrusOne LP, has entered into an amendment to its senior unsecured credit agreement, extending the maturity dates and decreasing the interest rate margins applicable on the revolving credit facility and term loans.

The amended agreement consists of a $1.4 billion revolving credit facility, which includes a $750 million multicurrency borrowing sublimit, and term loan commitments totaling $1.1 billion. The revolving credit facility has been decreased by $300 million, resulting in savings on the annual facility fee and reflecting the Company’s enhanced access to capital as an investment-grade issuer. The revolving credit facility matures in March 2024 and includes a 12-month extension option, which, if exercised by the Company, would extend the final maturity to March 2025. The term loan commitments consist of a $400 million term loan maturing in March 2023 and a $700 million term loan maturing in March 2025. The term loan maturing in March 2023 includes two 12-month extension options, which, if fully exercised by the Company, would extend the final maturity to March 2025. The credit agreement also contains an accordion that allows the Company to obtain up to $1.5 billion in additional revolving or term loan commitments.

The all-in drawn margin applicable to the revolving credit facility based on the Company’s current leverage level has decreased by 25 basis points compared to the margin on the previous revolving credit facility. The current margin is 100 basis points over the applicable index for floating rate advances, and the annual facility fee is 20 basis points. The margin on the term loan maturing in March 2023 based on the Company’s current leverage level is LIBOR + 120 basis points, a decrease of 15 basis points compared to the margin on the previously outstanding term loan maturing in March 2023. The margin on the term loan maturing in March 2025 based on the Company’s current leverage level is also LIBOR + 120 basis points, a decrease of 45 basis points compared to the margin on the previously outstanding term loan maturing in March 2025.

“This amended credit facility is another step in our ongoing efforts to maintain a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity. The pricing, terms and facility size reflect our status as an investment-grade issuer with ongoing access to the IG bond market, as needed. We will generate significant interest and fee savings under the amended credit facility, and we have effectively extended our bank debt maturities out to five years,” commented Diane Morefield, Chief Financial Officer. “We want to thank all our bank relationships that underwrote this credit facility in the current challenging environment. We appreciate their support and believe the execution of this credit facility reflects their confidence in CyrusOne and our strategy, and the robust underlying trends for the data center industry,” summarized Morefield.
