Ryman debt facilities update

Ryman Healthcare Limited (NZX:RYM) has announced that it has extended its bank facilities
and made an amendment to its interest coverage ratio (ICR) covenant.

The company’s bank facility limit has been increased by NZ$119 million
1
to NZ$2.600
billion
1
. As a result, total debt facilities are now NZ$3.022 billion
1
which includes an existing
retail bond of NZ$150 million and an existing institutional term loan of A$250 million.

The average tenor of all debt facilities has increased from 2.6 to 3.6 years at 21 September
2023.

As part of the renegotiated bank facilities the interest coverage ratio (ICR) covenant, which
applies to both bank debt and the institutional term loan, has been amended to be calculated
as adjusted EBITDA
2
to total interest (previously adjusted EBIT to total interest) and the
interest costs incurred on repaid USPP notes will be excluded from the calculation. Ryman
fully repaid its USPP notes in March 2023 in conjunction with its $902 million equity raise.

The ICR covenant levels remain unchanged at 1.75x for all reporting periods through to 31
March 2025, then moving to 2.00x at 30 September 2025 and 2.25x thereafter.

Ryman Group Chief Executive Officer, Richard Umbers, commented that “We are pleased
with the on-going support of our lenders and the changes afford the company improved
flexibility to respond to market conditions and in particular to the currently subdued real
estate markets.”







1: Includes AUD debt facilities converted to NZD at an NZD/AUD rate of 0.92
2: Adjusted EBITDA (adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) is
calculated in the same way as adjusted EBIT after adding back depreciation and amortisation. A
calculation for adjusted EBIT for the period ending 31 March 2023 is shown on slide 48 of Ryman
Healthcare’s FY23 full year result presentation. Key adjustments include excluding all unrealised
portions of fair value movements and excluding the non-cash element of deferred management
fees.
