Bank loans end unchanged; Citrix stages modest improvement; funds see $446 million outflows
By Paul A. Harris
Portland, Ore., Sept. 27 – Bank loans finished unchanged on Tuesday, outperforming high-yield bonds, with cash bonds falling on the day, according to a New York-based investment banker.
Citrix Systems Inc.’s term loan B improved by about a quarter of a point during the session, heading out Tuesday afternoon at 89½ bid, the banker said.
The $4.05 billion 6.5-year loan, backing the buyout of Citrix by Vista Equity Partners and Evergreen Coast Capital, was 89 bid, 90 offered last Friday.
The dollar-denominated primary market did not generate any news on Tuesday, the banker said.
The market awaits an update on the Brightspeed $2 billion seven-year term loan B.
Price talk of SOFR+10 basis points CSA plus 500 bps with a 0.5% floor and an original issue discount of 92 surfaced last week.
Commitments are due Thursday.
Meantime commitments were due Tuesday on the Farfetch US Holdings Inc. $400 million five-year covenant-lite first-lien term loan B, which is talked at SOFR plus 600 bps to 625 bps with a 0.5% floor and an original issue discount of 95.
There were no updates on the deal heading into the New York close, the banker said.
Fund flows
The dedicated bank-loan funds sustained $446 million of net daily outflows of cash on Monday, the most recent session for which data was available at press time, according to a market source.
Bank-loan ETFs saw $272 million of outflows on the day.
Actively managed bank loan funds sustained $174 million of outflows on Monday, the source said.
The combined funds are tracking $1.22 billion of net outflows on the week that will conclude with Wednesday's close, according to the market source.
