Investors on Feb. 8 received allocations of Resideo Technologies Inc.'s $950 million seven-year covenant-lite term loan B that priced at L+225 with a 0.5% Libor floor and an issue price of 99.75 in a J.P. Morgan-led transaction, according to sources. The loan was upsized by $150 million, and pricing was finalized tight of talk. Proceeds will be used to refinance the company's term loan A due 2023 and term loan B due 2025 (L+225, 0% floor), and to redeem $140 million of its 6.125% senior unsecured notes due 2026 at a redemption price of 106.125, leaving $260 million outstanding. As of Sept. 30, there was $324 million of the TLA outstanding and $468 million of the TLB.

In addition to the TLB, the company is putting in place a new $500 million, five-year revolving credit facility. Resideo Technologies is a provider of residential comfort and security solutions.
