Insights

The $105M financing package represents a critical lifeline for Modivcare, combining $75M in incremental term loans and $30M in second-lien notes. The pricing terms - SOFR + 750bps for the term loan and 5-10% for the PIK notes - reflect significant risk premium, indicating lenders' concerns about the company's financial health. The covenant relief through Q2 2025 and reduced liquidity requirements from $75M to $25M suggest severe near-term operational challenges.

The planned exchange of $251M in Senior Notes for Second Lien Notes represents a defensive liability management exercise, effectively subordinating existing bondholders. The withdrawal of revenue and EBITDA guidance, coupled with the appointment of a transformation officer and strategic review, signals potential restructuring ahead. The 6.75x leverage covenant starting Q3 2025 indicates extremely high leverage expectations.

The appointment of Chad Shandler as Chief Transformation Officer alongside a comprehensive strategic review signals a major operational overhaul. The strategic review with potential asset sales suggests management is considering breaking up the company to address financial pressures. The addition of three new independent directors indicates a governance reset, likely prompted by stakeholder pressure.

The withdrawal of forward guidance is particularly concerning as it suggests management lacks visibility into near-term performance. Coliseum Capital's involvement through the $30M note purchase, despite requiring shareholder approval, demonstrates existing major shareholders are stepping in to support the restructuring, but at the cost of increased complexity in the capital structure.

This refinancing reflects broader challenges in the healthcare services sector, particularly for companies focused on supportive care and transportation logistics. The company's critical role in healthcare access for vulnerable populations means any operational restructuring must be carefully managed to maintain service continuity. The transformation strategy will likely focus on streamlining operations while preserving core services.

The addition of healthcare restructuring expertise through FTI Consulting suggests a complex operational turnaround ahead. For a company with a sub-$200M market cap, this level of financial engineering and leadership changes indicates severe operational stress that could impact service delivery and relationships with healthcare partners.

$75 Million in Incremental Term Loan and $30 Million in New Second Lien Notes to Support Operational Improvements, Strategic Priorities and Covenant Relief

Will Pursue Strategic Review of Assets with Key Company Advisors to Maximize Value

Chief Transformation Officer and Board Additions Bolster Company Leadership

Company Withdraws Previously Stated Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Growth Guidance

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Modivcare Inc. (the “Company” or “Modivcare”) (Nasdaq: MODV), a technology-enabled healthcare services company providing a platform of integrated supportive care solutions focused on improving health outcomes, today announced key initiatives to support future growth. The Company has secured $75 million in incremental financing, backed by stakeholders across the capital structure, and appointed Chad Shandler as its Chief Transformation Officer. An existing investor, Coliseum Capital Management, has also committed $30 million to purchase new second lien senior notes due 2029, subject to a stockholder vote. As part of the financing agreement, revolving lenders have agreed to amend the Company’s existing credit agreement in order to, among other things, provide covenant relief. The Company will also bolster its board of directors (the “Board”) with the addition of three new independent directors to be appointed in the coming months. These initiatives, along with a strategic review of its assets that the Company is pursuing with its advisors, are intended to strengthen the Company’s financial foundation, enhance operational performance and best position Modivcare for a future of sustainable growth.

“This financing highlights broad-based support from stakeholders across the capital structure and provides the Company with additional resources to focus on long-term strategic priorities,” said Heath Sampson, Chief Executive Officer and President of Modivcare. “As we turn to the future, we are also excited to welcome Chad Shandler as Chief Transformation Officer. He brings a wealth of experience supporting large-scale transformations across the healthcare industry. I’m looking forward to working with him, the Board and our financial partners to advance Modivcare’s strategic goals.”

“The steps Modivcare is taking now to transform its business will ensure the Company is well positioned to connect people with the care they need, now and in the future,” said Leslie Norwalk, Interim Chair of the Board. “We and the leadership team have worked diligently to strengthen the Company’s financial foundation and remain focused on improving the Company’s operational performance with a view toward long-term growth.”

“We are pleased to be able to provide this incremental financing to Modivcare, which will bolster its balance sheet and position the Company to achieve its long-term strategic priorities and deliver value to its stakeholders,” said a representative of the supporting lenders. “Modivcare plays a critical role in the country’s healthcare network with an important mission to connect people to care, wherever they are. As we continue to work with Modivcare’s leadership team and the Board, our goals are aligned in ensuring the Company is well positioned to continue to support its members nationwide.”

Transaction Details

Modivcare has raised $105 million in additional financing from stakeholders across its capital structure as a $75 million incremental term loan under its existing credit agreement and, subject to a stockholder vote, $30 million of new Second Lien Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2029 (the “Second Lien Notes”). The financing will provide Modivcare with additional liquidity to support its strategic initiatives. It will bolster the Company’s financial position, allowing the Company to continue operating to its same high level of service for members, while positioning the Company to meet its long-term strategic goals and maximize shareholder value.

The incremental term loan was priced at SOFR + 750 bps, with 1.00% SOFR Floor (no CSA) with a maturity of January 10, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”) and OID of 2 points. The Company has the option to prepay the incremental term loan, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its maturity, subject to a prepayment fee equal to the present value of all scheduled interest payments on the fully committed amount that would accrue through the Maturity Date calculated based on a discount rate equal to the treasury rate plus 50 basis points. The Company’s existing credit agreement was also amended in connection with such financing with consenting lenders receiving a customary consent fee, payable-in-kind.

The Company's existing credit agreement was amended to, among other things, replace the pricing grid in respect of revolving loans with pricing set at SOFR + 425 bps, with a 1.00% SOFR Floor, change the 2% default rate so that it applies on all obligations upon an event of default, amend the term loan maturity date to spring to July 2, 2029 if the Second Lien Notes remain outstanding as of such date, include enhanced reporting requirements and eliminate or reduce certain baskets for a period of time, including eliminating reinvestment rights with respect to certain asset sales and reduction of the de minimis exception for certain asset sale prepayments to $5,000,000.

The Company’s existing lenders have agreed to provide financial covenant relief in the form of (i) a covenant holiday with respect to the maximum net leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio from Q4 2024 through and including Q2 2025, (ii) resetting the maximum total net leverage ratio covenant to 6.75:1.00 for the third fiscal quarter of 2025 and the fourth fiscal quarter of 2025 and (iii) resetting the minimum interest coverage ratio to 1.65:1.00 for the third fiscal quarter of 2025 and the fourth fiscal quarter of 2025. The Company’s lenders have also agreed to reduce the minimum liquidity covenant from $75 million to $25 million, which will be tested each week through the week ending April 11, 2025, each month through the month ending June 30, 2025 and, thereafter, each fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company will be subject to a cash variance compliance test with respect to aggregate disbursements and aggregate receipts, subject to customary cures.

Pursuant to the amended credit agreement, upon the receipt of requisite consents to make certain amendments to the indenture governing the Company’s 5.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”), the Company will exchange $251 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes held by certain lenders party to the Company’s amended credit agreement for $251 million in aggregate principal amount of Second Lien Notes, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an exchange agreement, entered into between the Company and participating lenders. Interest on the Second Lien Notes will be, at the Company’s option, 5% per annum if paid in cash and 10% per annum if paid-in-kind, provided if the Company’s liquidity is greater than a to-be-determined threshold, the Company will be required to pay interest in cash.

In addition, the Company entered into a purchase and exchange agreement with clients of Coliseum Capital Management pursuant to which Coliseum has agreed to purchase $30 million in aggregate principal amount of Second Lien Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereto from, and including, October 1, 2024 to, but excluding, the date of issuance of such Second Lien Notes and to exchange approximately $20 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes for a like amount of Second Lien Notes. The transaction with Coliseum is subject to approval of 66-2/3% of the Company’s stockholders other than Coliseum under Delaware General Corporation Law Section 203 because Coliseum owns more than 15% of the Company’s common stock. The Company intends to seek such stockholder approval at a special stockholder meeting to be held in the first quarter of 2025.

Modivcare was advised in the transaction by Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Moelis & Company, and FTI Consulting.

Transformation

As part of Modivcare’s efforts to drive strategic and operational excellence, Chad Shandler, Senior Managing Director and Co-Leader of the Corporate Finance Healthcare practice at FTI Consulting, has been appointed as Chief Transformation Officer. This newly created role will focus on strengthening Modivcare in the near and long term and supporting the transformation of the Company via strategic divestitures or other potential initiatives. Mr. Shandler has more than 30 years of experience in executing on strategic and financial plans and has previously served in executive and advisory roles on behalf of a number of companies across the healthcare space. He will focus on advancing key strategic priorities and enhancing operational efficiencies for Modivcare.

Modivcare has also engaged advisors to conduct a strategic review of its assets to maximize shareholder value, which may include the potential sale of assets of the Company. There is no assurance that this review will result in a transaction, nor can the Company provide certainty on timing or outcomes.

Guidance

The Company has withdrawn its previously stated revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for fiscal year 2024 and adjusted EBITDA growth for fiscal year 2025 and related forward-looking statements due to changes in the business and overall environment.
