‍COLUMBIA, Mo. – ������Ƶ.com Inc (“������Ƶ”), one of the fastest growing integrated equipment rental and equipment asset management companies in the United States, announced today the closing of its inaugural offering of $640 million of senior secured second lien notes due 2028 (the “Notes”), one of the largest high-yield issuances in 2023 for a first time issuer. The company also announced its entry into an amendment to extend the maturity of, and upsize the borrowing capacity under, its senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”).
