Alvarez & Marsal Advises Annexair Inc. On the Refinancing of its Senior Credit Facilities

A&M provides support for Annexair’s continued operational expansion

TORONTO--()--Leading global professional services firm Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) announced today the successful completion of a refinancing for Annexair Inc. (“Annexair” or the “Company”). The Company had outgrown its existing production capacity and required a credit facility to payout its existing lender and finance the capital equipment associated with its relocation to a larger nearby facility in St-Germain-de-Grantham, Quebec.

Headquartered in Drummondville, Quebec, Annexair is a leading designer and manufacturer of premium quality, highly customized, energy-efficient, air handling systems for commercial and industrial applications.

As Annexair’s exclusive financial advisor, A&M worked closely with the management team to arrange a senior secured capital structure that provides the Company with the required financial flexibility to execute its growth strategy.

Hugh Rowan-Legg, a Managing Director with A&M Canada Securities, said, “A&M advised on a combined $25.0 million senior credit facility, consisting of a revolving credit facility, foreign exchange facility and committed drawdown-term facility to acquire the additional capital equipment required in the Company’s relocation and expansion.”

Francois Lemieux, Founder and President of Annexair, commented, “The A&M team was actively involved throughout our debt capital raise. Their professionalism ensured a comprehensive refinancing process that resulted in a tailor-made corporate financing package giving us the means to execute our growth strategy and business plan. We are very pleased with the outcome and appreciate the exceptional market knowledge and transaction support that A&M delivered.”
