Rhea-AI Filing Summary

On 22 Jul 2025 DiamondRock Hospitality (NYSE: DRH) executed a Seventh Amended & Restated Credit Agreement that upsizes its unsecured credit facility from $1.2 bn to $1.5 bn and extends maturities.

  • $400 m revolving credit line maturing 21 Jan 2030; two optional 6-month extensions.
  • Three term loans totalling $1.1 bn: $500 m due 3 Jan 2028, $300 m due 21 Jan 2029, $300 m due 21 Jan 2030; Term 1 & Term 3 may each be extended twice.
  • Accordion feature can lift total commitments to $1.8 bn.
  • Pricing unchanged at SOFR +1.35%�2.25%, driven by leverage tiers; unused revolver fee 0.20%�0.25%.
  • Covenants remain: max leverage 60%, fixed-charge cover �1.5×, secured debt <45% of asset value.

The incremental $300 m fully covers repayment of three mortgage loans maturing in 2025 (�$291.6 m). After the planned pre-payment of the $166.6 m Westin Boston Seaport loan in Sep-25, DRH will have no debt maturities until Jan-2028 and its hotel portfolio will be entirely unencumbered.

The refinancing bolsters liquidity, cuts near-term refinancing risk and preserves borrowing costs, though drawing the added capacity could lift leverage.

Il 22 luglio 2025 DiamondRock Hospitality (NYSE: DRH) ha stipulato un Settimo Accordo di Credito Emendato e Rifirmato che aumenta la sua linea di credito non garantita da 1,2 miliardi di dollari a 1,5 miliardi di dollari e ne estende le scadenze.

  • Linea di credito revolving di 400 milioni di dollari con scadenza il 21 gennaio 2030; due opzioni di estensione di 6 mesi ciascuna.
  • Tre prestiti a termine per un totale di 1,1 miliardi di dollari: 500 milioni con scadenza 3 gennaio 2028, 300 milioni con scadenza 21 gennaio 2029, 300 milioni con scadenza 21 gennaio 2030; i Term 1 e Term 3 possono essere estesi due volte ciascuno.
  • La clausola accordion può aumentare l'impegno totale fino a 1,8 miliardi di dollari.
  • Il prezzo rimane invariato a SOFR +1,35%�2,25%, basato sui livelli di leva finanziaria; la commissione sul revolver inutilizzato è dello 0,20%�0,25%.
  • I covenant restano: leva massima al 60%, copertura del costo fisso �1,5×, debito garantito inferiore al 45% del valore degli asset.

I 300 milioni di dollari aggiuntivi coprono completamente il rimborso di tre mutui ipotecari in scadenza nel 2025 (circa 291,6 milioni). Dopo il previsto prepago del mutuo Westin Boston Seaport da 166,6 milioni a settembre 2025, DRH non avrà scadenze di debito fino a gennaio 2028 e il suo portafoglio alberghiero sarà completamente libero da vincoli.

Il rifinanziamento rafforza la liquidità, riduce il rischio di rifinanziamento a breve termine e mantiene i costi di indebitamento, anche se l'utilizzo della capacità aggiuntiva potrebbe aumentare la leva finanziaria.

Am 22. Juli 2025 hat DiamondRock Hospitality (NYSE: DRH) eine siebte geänderte und neu gefasste Kreditvereinbarung abgeschlossen, die seine unbesicherte Kreditfazilität von 1,2 Mrd. USD auf 1,5 Mrd. USD erhöht und die Laufzeiten verlängert.

  • 400 Mio. USD revolvierende Kreditlinie mit Fälligkeit am 21. Januar 2030; zwei optionale Verlängerungen um jeweils 6 Monate.
  • Drei Terminkredite mit insgesamt 1,1 Mrd. USD: 500 Mio. USD fällig am 3. Januar 2028, 300 Mio. USD fällig am 21. Januar 2029, 300 Mio. USD fällig am 21. Januar 2030; Term 1 und Term 3 können jeweils zweimal verlängert werden.
  • Die Accordion-Klausel kann die Gesamtkreditverpflichtungen auf 1,8 Mrd. USD ö.
  • Die Preisgestaltung bleibt unverändert bei SOFR +1,35%�2,25%, abhängig von den Verschuldungsstufen; Gebühr für nicht genutzte Revolver 0,20%�0,25%.
  • Die Covenants bleiben bestehen: maximale Verschuldung 60%, Fixkostendeckung �1,5×, besicherte Schulden <45% des Vermögenswertwerts.

Die zusätzlichen 300 Mio. USD decken vollständig die Rückzahlung von drei Hypothekendarlehen ab, die 2025 fällig werden (�291,6 Mio. USD). Nach der geplanten Vorfälligkeitsrückzahlung des Westin Boston Seaport-Darlehens in Höhe von 166,6 Mio. USD im September 2025 wird DRH bis Januar 2028 keine Schuldenfälligkeiten mehr haben und sein Hotelportfolio wird vollständig unbelastet sein.

Die Refinanzierung stärkt die Liquidität, verringert das kurzfristige Refinanzierungsrisiko und erhält die Kreditkosten, obwohl die Nutzung der zusätzlichen Kapazität die Verschuldung erhöhen könnte.

Positive
  • $300 m increase lifts total capacity to $1.5 bn, expandable to $1.8 bn.
  • Maturities extended to 2028�2030, eliminating all debt maturities until 2028.
  • Portfolio becomes fully unencumbered after September 2025, enhancing flexibility.
  • Interest margins unchanged despite larger size, signalling lender confidence.
Negative
  • Higher facility could lead to increased leverage if fully drawn.
  • Shift from secured to unsecured debt removes collateral protection for lenders, potentially raising spreads.
  • SOFR-based variable rates expose DRH to floating-rate cost increases.

Insights

TL;DR: Larger, longer credit line wipes out 2025 maturities, giving DRH unencumbered assets and liquidity headroom—equity-friendly move.

By replacing near-term secured mortgages with an unsecured facility, DRH improves balance-sheet flexibility and releases property collateral, supporting potential asset sales or dispositions at better terms. The extended staggered maturity ladder (2028-2030) materially lowers refinancing risk in a still-volatile rate environment. Importantly, pricing stayed flat despite a larger commitment, indicating lenders� confidence in DRH’s credit profile. The accordion to $1.8 bn provides dry powder for acquisitions or cap-ex. Equity investors should view the move as accretive to optionality and supportive of dividend capacity.

TL;DR: Liquidity up, covenants unchanged; leverage could rise if facility is drawn, but risk contained by 60% cap.

From a creditor standpoint, the unsecured nature and unchanged covenant set mean structural subordination risk is limited. The facility’s leverage-based pricing keeps incentives aligned. While the larger commitment could tempt management to lever up, the 60% leverage ceiling and 1.5× fixed-charge cover provide guardrails. Eliminating secured debt improves asset fungibility, but creditors lose hard collateral, so credit spreads might widen slightly if leverage approaches higher tiers. Net effect remains moderately positive, especially given the elimination of 2025 maturities.

ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 22, 2025, DiamondRock Hospitality Company (the “Company”), as parent guarantor, DiamondRock Hospitality Limited Partnership, as borrower, and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into the Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and certain other lenders named therein (as amended, the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility increased the capacity of the Company’s existing credit facility (the “Prior Facility”) from $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion and extended the Company’s maturity schedule. The Credit Facility provides for a $400.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and three term loan facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion. Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., U.S. Bank National Association and TD Bank, N.A. are joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners of the Credit Facility. KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., Regions Capital Markets, a Division of Regions Bank, PNC Capital Markets LLC, Capital One, National Association, BMO Capital Markets Corp., The Huntington National Bank and Truist Securities, Inc. are joint lead arrangers of certain loans under the Credit Facility. The Huntington National Bank and Truist Securities, Inc. are joint bookrunners of a loan under the Credit Facility. Bank of America, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association and TD Bank, N.A. are syndication agents. The Huntington National Bank and Truist Securities, Inc. are syndication agents of a loan under the Credit Facility. KeyBank National Association, Regions Bank, PNC Bank, National Association, BMO Harris Bank, N.A. and Capital One, National Association are documentation agents and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and PNC Bank, National Association are sustainability structuring agents.

 

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on January 21, 2030. The Company may extend the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility for two additional six-month periods upon the payment of applicable fees and satisfaction of certain standard conditions. The Company also has the right to increase the aggregate capacity of the Credit Facility to $1.8 billion upon the satisfaction of certain standard conditions.

 

The term loan facilities consist of a $500.0 million term loan that matures on January 3, 2028 (the “Term 1 Loan”), a $300.0 million term loan that matures on January 21, 2030 (the “Term 2 Loan”) and a $300.0 million term loan that matures on January 21, 2029 (the “Term 3 Loan”). The maturity date of the Term 1 Loan and Term 3 Loan may be extended for two additional six-month periods upon the payment of applicable fees and satisfaction of certain standard conditions.

 

 

 

 

Interest is paid on the periodic advances on the Revolving Credit Facility and amounts outstanding on the term loans at varying rates, based upon SOFR, as defined in the Credit Facility, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is unchanged from the Prior Facility and is based upon the Company’s ratio of net indebtedness to EBITDA, as follows:

 

Level  Ratio of Net Indebtedness to EBITDA  Applicable Margin for
Revolving Loans
   Applicable Margin for
Term Loans
 
1  Less than 30%   1.40%   1.35%
2  Greater than or equal to 30% but less than 35%   1.45%   1.40%
3  Greater than or equal to 35% but less than 40%   1.50%   1.45%
4  Greater than or equal to 40% but less than 45%   1.60%   1.55%
5  Greater than or equal to 45% but less than 50%   1.80%   1.75%
6  Greater than or equal to 50% but less than 55%   1.95%   1.85%
7  Greater than or equal to 55%   2.25%   2.20%

 

In addition to the interest payable on borrowings under the Credit Facility, the Company is required to pay an amount equal to 0.20% of the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility if the average usage of the Revolving Credit Facility is greater than or equal to 50%, and 0.25% if the average usage of the Revolving Credit Facility is less than 50%.

 

The Credit Facility contains various corporate financial covenants, which are unchanged from the Prior Facility. A summary of the most restrictive covenants is as follows:

 

  Covenant
Maximum leverage ratio 60%
Minimum fixed charge coverage ratio 1.50x

The Credit Facility contains customary representations, financial and other affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and remedies for this type of facility. Any failure to comply with the financial and operating covenants of the Credit Facility would constitute a default, which could result in, among other things, the amounts outstanding, including all accrued interest and unpaid fees, becoming immediately due and payable.

 

The $300.0 million upsizing of the Credit Facility fully funds the repayment of the Company’s three mortgage loans that matured or will mature in 2025. The mortgage loans secured by the Worthington Renaissance Fort Worth Hotel and the Hotel Clio, which together had a principal balance totaling approximately $125.0 million, were repaid on their respective maturity dates in May 2025 and July 2025 prior to the closing of the Credit Facility. The Company intends to prepay the $166.6 million mortgage loan secured by the Westin Boston Seaport District in September 2025. Following this repayment, the Company will have no debt maturities until January 2028 and its portfolio will be fully unencumbered by secured debt.
