Mister Car Wash launches $180 million term B at Libor plus 450 bps

By Sara Rosenberg

New York, Sept. 11 – Mister Car Wash launched on Thursday its $180 million seven-year covenant-light term loan B with price talk of Libor plus 450 basis points with a 1% Libor floor and an original issue discount of 99, according to a market source.

The term loan has 101 soft call protection for six months, the source said.

The company’s $210 million credit facility (Ba3/B-) also includes a $30 million revolver.

Commitments are due on Sept. 24, the source added.

Jefferies Finance LLC, Nomura Securities Co., Ltd. and BMO Capital Markets Corp. are the leads on the deal.

Proceeds will be used to back the recently completed buyout of the company by Leonard Green & Partners LP from Oncap.

Other funds for the transaction are coming from $87.5 million of privately placed unsecured notes and about $270 million of equity.

Leverage through the bank debt is around 3.9 times.

Mister Car Wash is a Tucson, Ariz.-based car wash company.
