DENVER, May 15 (Korea Bizwire) — Sundance Energy Australia Limited (ASX: SEA) (NASDAQ: SNDE) (“Sundance” or the “Company”), a U.S. onshore oil and gas exploration and production company focused in the Eagle Ford in South Texas, today announced that the Company’s bank group had completed its regularly scheduled spring borrowing base redetermination, resulting in unanimous approval for a significant borrowing base increase and pricing reduction.
Spring 2019 Redetermination Highlights Include:
- Borrowing Base availability increase of 39% from US $122.5 million to US $170.0 million.
- Reduction of 25 bps to the Credit Facility’s pricing grid.
- Expansion of the Company’s bank syndicate by two additional members, bringing the total to seven financial institutions.
- Reserves associated with the Dimmit asset were removed for calculation of the borrowing base so upon sale of the assets the borrowing base will not change.
Sundance’s Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Eric McCrady, commented, “Sundance would like to thank its bank group for their continued support. This strong vote of confidence reflects the quality of our premier asset base and strong balance sheet, as well as our continued success in delivering outstanding well results through our development program. The Company’s pre-existing available liquidity was more than sufficient to support our development program through free cash flow production in the second half of the year. This substantial increase to our Borrowing Base will provide us with an even greater liquidity cushion and enable significant strategic flexibility.”
