Purple Innovation Stock Jumps After Debt Refinancing
By Paul Ziobro
Shares of Purple Innovation rose in after-hours trading after the mattress company said it completed a debt refinancing that gave it more financial flexibility.
The stock was up 9.7% to 90 cents in late trading Tuesday, after closing down 4.2% at 82 cents in the regular session. The stock had been down more than 85% over the last 12 months.
The Lehi, Utah-based company said Coliseum Capital Management and No Street Capital have assumed its two primary debt facilities from its previous lenders. The loans will be consolidated into a new, upsized term loan of $61 million.
The transaction will bring cash and cash equivalents to around $48 million, the company said. The company's net liquidity preceding the transaction was around $26 million.
In connection with the new loan, Purple issued warrants to the lenders to buy 20 million Class A shares for $1.50 each, subject to certain adjustments.
Purple Chief Executive Rob DeMartini said the company expects fourth-quarter net revenue and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization will be within its guidance range. It also expects revenue to rise in 2024, despite challenging industry conditions.
