DOREL PROVIDES LONG-TERM DEBT UPDATE
The previously announced forbearance period under Dorel Industries Inc.'s asset-backed loan (ABL) facility and term loan facility has been extended by Dorel's lenders to the earlier of Sept. 30, 2025 (from Sept. 16, 2025), and the occurrence of any event of default, other than the previous event of default, under the ABL facility.
Also as previously announced, the company has engaged two leading capital market advisers to assist in recapitalizing the company's balance sheet to allow for growth in the juvenile segment and support the reorganization of the home segment. The new structure is intended to replace the current debt structure which no longer matches the company's needs. The process is well advanced; the company's objective is to have the new structure in place before the end of the extended forbearance period.
