SquareTwo Financial Raises Nearly $500M in Financing

Denver, Colo. – SquareTwo Financial, a leader in the $40 billion asset recovery and management industry, today announces that the company has successfully completed a $475 million financing package. The money was raised from the sale of Senior Secured Second Lien notes and a new revolving credit facility.

In conjunction with the bond offering, SquareTwo Financial received a ‘B’ counterparty credit rating from Standard & Poor’s and an equivalent B2 Corporate Family Rating from Moody’s. The company’s unique, franchise-based attorney network was a key factor to its favorable credit rating.

“The fact that we could raise nearly half a billion dollars with terms that support growth in what is still considered a challenging economic environment is a testament to our unique business model and our position in the industry,” said Paul A. Larkins, president and CEO of SquareTwo Financial. “This is a clear vote of confidence in our ability to deliver consistent financial results.”

Proceeds from the bond offering and the new revolving credit facility will enable SquareTwo Financial to roll out a comprehensive, multi-year strategic plan. The company intends to use the additional funds raised to pay off current debt and expand its business.
