Avenue Stores completes recapitalization
Avenue Stores has successfully refinanced its outstanding capital structure.
The women’s plus-size apparel and accessories retailer has been provided with a new revolving credit facility by PNC Bank. The new facility, which will retire Avenue’s existing term loan, will fund ongoing liquidity and working capital needs and support the company’s strategic plans. Versa Capital Management, which owns Avenue, has provided new capital to the retailer as well.
“We are pleased to have completed this important recapitalization with PNC that positions Avenue to execute on our strategic plans across all of our sales channels,” said Mark Walsh, CEO, Avenue.
By increasing overall liquidity, reducing interest rates, and removing all debt amortization payments, Avenue’s new capital structure is much more stable, flexible and better aligned with the strategic needs of the business, the company stated. In addition, the structure will further strengthen the company’s ability to continue investing and providing customers with the fashion and service they deserve.
