Following the closing, the available borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility is $174.5m. The proceeds of the borrowings under the new credit agreement, together with cash on hand, were used to refinance B&G Foods’ existing $130m credit facility, fund the acquisition purchase price and pay related transaction fees and expenses.
