Insights

Allbirds secures enhanced financing through a $75M credit facility and $50M ATM program to fund product and marketing initiatives while improving liquidity.

Allbirds has implemented a comprehensive financing strategy designed to strengthen its balance sheet and support growth initiatives. The company has replaced its existing $50 million credit facility with a new $75 million asset-based revolving credit facility through Second Avenue Capital Partners. This facility includes a $50 million base tranche and a $25 million accordion feature, with improved terms and an extended maturity date of June 2028.

In parallel, Allbirds has established an At-the-Market (ATM) program with TD Cowen that could potentially allow for up to $50 million in equity sales. The timing of this financing strategy is strategic, aligning with the company's upcoming product launches and marketing initiatives scheduled to begin in mid-July. While a $22.5 million registration statement for the ATM program has been filed with the SEC, it's not yet effective.

The company's cash position stands at $39.1 million as of March 31, 2025, but management clearly sees the need for additional financial flexibility. The expanded credit facility provides a higher borrowing base with better terms, which should lower the company's cost of debt capital compared to the previous facility that was priced at SOFR plus 575 basis points. This financing package appears designed to fund Allbirds' product innovation pipeline of over 15 new styles and support the company's store refresh program and website redesign without immediately diluting existing shareholders, though the ATM program does create potential for future dilution as needed.

Strengthens Financial Position with Expanded Credit Facility and Flexibility for Future Strategic Equity Sales

SAN FRANCISCO, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allbirds, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIRD) (the “Company� or “Allbirds�), a global lifestyle brand that innovates with sustainable materials to make better products in a better way, today announced the following financing agreements that are expected to optimize working capital and enhance financial flexibility to support the Company’s long-term growth plans.

  • A new $75 million asset-based revolving credit facility with Second Avenue Capital Partners, consisting of a $50 million tranche and a $25 million accordion feature.
