Debt Financing Transactions
Debt Financing Transactions
Institutional clients have turned to Bass, Berry & Sims for representation in more than $35 billion of debt financing transactions in the last five years.
We represent public and private companies and a broad range of traditional and non-traditional financing providers in a variety of complex financing transactions. Through our representation of both lenders and borrowers, we offer clients a comprehensive perspective on all aspects of debt finance.
We have deep experience negotiating broadly syndicated credit facilities, including term loan facilities and asset-based loans, construction facilities, project financings, acquisition financings and structured financings with related intercreditor arrangements.
With a strong focus on low-middle-market and core-middle-market private equity deals, we regularly negotiate acquisition financings (frequently coupled with an equity investment), recapitalization financings and capital call facilities. Our experience extends to financing structures tailored for independent sponsors and SBIC funds.
We also routinely advise on capital markets transactions, including high-yield, investment-grade, and convertible notes offerings for our public and large private company clients.
In addition to transactions in the manufacturing, logistics, B2B and consumer industries, we have extensive experience in multi-unit franchise and restaurant finance transactions as well as healthcare finance transactions, bringing a depth of understanding for clients about companies operating under significant contractual or regulatory regimes.
Feedback in recent editions of Chambers USA has included the following:
- “Bass, Berry & Sims PLC is a stellar outfit providing services across the financial services spectrum. It represents borrowers and lenders in matters ranging from commercial lending to regulatory compliance. It is experienced in handling large-scale transactions for a broad range of clients, including regional and national banks and private equity firms. It demonstrates expertise in debt refinancing and syndicated loans, as well as bank M&A and the formation of subsidiaries.” (from Chambers USA 2025)
- “The Bass, Berry & Sims finance team understands the nuances, concerns and demands of the market and our industry and advises us in navigating complexity in an ever-changing legal and business environment” (from Chambers USA 2024)
- The firm offers “great responsiveness” and “when you think of quality firms, you think of these guys. They’re traditionally seen as being at the top” (from Chambers USA 2020)
- “They are responsive and organized and willing to go the extra mile to get anything done by a certain deadline. They also know our business really, really well.” (from Chambers USA 2019)
Areas of Focus
We assist public and large private companies with a broad range of debt financing transactions, including broadly syndicated credit facilities, secured and unsecured loans, and public and private offerings of high-yield, investment-grade, and convertible notes.
We ensure financing solutions align with regulatory requirements, market expectations, and the unique challenges of operating in the public markets.
We routinely negotiate complex fund-level financing transactions, including capital call, NAV and hybrid facilities.
We represent private credit funds in low-middle-market and core-middle-market transactions.
We regularly advise on senior secured and mezzanine financings as well as related minority equity investments. Clients trust us to structure efficient deals and negotiate bespoke intercreditor and collateral arrangements.
Private equity sponsors rely on our team to advise on market terms for financings of sponsor-backed investments. As an integral part of our firm’s private equity practice, we work closely with our mergers and acquisitions, tax, employee benefits and financial restructuring groups to provide comprehensive, client-centered solutions on fast-moving timelines.
