Lionsgate Studios Corp. (NYSE:LION) has amended its existing senior secured term credit facility, raising the maximum principal amount to $1.25 billion. The amendment, executed Friday, marks the fourth increase to the facility since its original agreement in September 2024, according to a statement in a press release based on a recent SEC filing. According to InvestingPro data, the company currently carries a total debt burden of $4.11 billion, with short-term obligations exceeding liquid assets.
The credit facility is secured by intellectual property rights primarily associated with certain library titles. The facility was originally established at $455 million and has been expanded through a series of amendments: to $720 million in November 2024, $850 million in December 2024, $1 billion in March 2025, and now to $1.25 billion as of September 26, 2025.

Under the terms of the agreement, the facility requires quarterly principal payments of 2.5% of the outstanding balance, starting February 14, 2025. The remaining balance is due at maturity on September 30, 2029. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at a rate equal to Term SOFR plus 2.25% per annum.
The credit agreement involves several lenders and financial institutions, including Fifth Third Bank as administrative agent and joint lead arranger, East West Bank as reserve deposit agent, and multiple other banks as co-documentation agents and co-managers.
The company noted that the facility’s size is subject to the valuation of unsold rights from its library titles, which serve as collateral.
