Kindred Healthcare Expands Credit Capacity by $200 Million

Kindred Healthcare Inc. (NYSE:KND) announced the successful completion of amendments to increase its senior secured term loan facility by $100 million,?and expand the borrowing capacity under its senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement by the same amount.

Net proceeds of the additional term loan borrowings, issued at 97.5%, were used to pay down a portion of the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility. The aggregate amount currently outstanding under the term loan facility is $791 million.

In connection with the $100 million expansion of the borrowing capacity under its revolving credit, Kindred modified its accounts receivable borrowing base, allowing the company to more easily access the full amount of the available credit. Kindred will have $450 million of unused borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility.

Other terms of the term loan and revolving credit facilities were unchanged.

?These amendments create an additional $200 million of credit capacity to enhance our ability to expand our continuum of post-acute care services,? CEO Paul J. Diaz said in a statement. ?We believe this additional credit capacity along with our ability to generate strong free cash flows provides us with a great opportunity to accelerate our cluster market strategy, further invest in our home health and hospice operations and expand our higher margin businesses.?

  2. Problem: HP Printer not connecting to my laptop.
    I had an issue while connecting my 2 year old HP printer to my brother's laptop that I had borrowed for starting my own business. I used a quick google search to fix the problem but that did not help me.
    I then decided to get professional help to solve my problem. After having received many quotations from various companies, i decided to go ahead with Online Tech Repair (www.onlinetechrepairs.com).
    Reasons I chose them over the others:
    1) They were extremely friendly and patient with me during my initial discussions and responded promptly to my request.
    2) Their prices were extremely reasonable.
    3) They were ready and willing to walk me through the entire process step by step and were on call with me till i got it fixed.
    How did they do it
    1) They first asked me to state my problem clearly and asked me a few questions. This was done to detect any physical connectivity issues with the printer.
    2) After having answered this, they confirmed that the printer and the laptop were functioning correctly.
    3) They then, asked me if they could access my laptop remotely to troubleshoot the problem and fix it. I agreed.
    4) One of the tech support executives accessed my laptop and started troubleshooting.
    5) I sat back and watched as the tech support executive was navigating my laptop to spot the issue. The issue was fixed.
    6) I was told that it was due to an older version of the driver that had been installed.
    My Experience
    I loved the entire friendly conversation that took place with them. They understood my needs clearly and acted upon the solution immediately. Being a technical noob, i sometimes find it difficult to communicate with tech support teams. It was a very
    different experience with the guys at Online Tech Repairs. You can check out their website www.onlinetechrepairs.com or call them on 1-914-613-3786.
    Would definitely recommend this service to anyone who needs help fixing their computers.
    Thanks a ton guys. Great Job....!!
