Great Rock Capital Increases Leverage Facility

In a significant move to bolster its position in the middle market lending sector, Great Rock Capital has announced the expansion of its leverage facility to over $700 million. This financial maneuver, facilitated through a partnership with KeyBank National Association, one of the largest banking institutions in the United States, reflects Great Rock's commitment to providing innovative financing solutions for middle-market companies.

Capital Infusion

The increased leverage facility represents a collaborative effort with new lending partners, including OceanFirst Bank N.A. and HomeStreet Bank. This initiative is not just about numbers; it's a strategic step aimed at maximizing liquidity and enhancing financial flexibility for businesses seeking growth capital.

Chris Tucker, Managing Director at KeyBank Specialty Finance Lending, expressed confidence in Great Rock's strategy: "We believe that Great Rock is well positioned to grow with a strong management team and creative financing solutions for middle market customers throughout North America." This endorsement highlights the trust and reliance that financial institutions place in Great Rock’s capability to deliver effective lending solutions.

Positive Momentum

Stuart Armstrong, CEO of Great Rock Capital, noted the company's successful trajectory as they entered 2025 following a record-breaking previous year: "Following a record-setting 2024, we've entered 2025 with strong momentum and strong first-quarter performance." This positive outlook is vital, especially in a competitive lending landscape where flexible financial solutions can set companies apart.

Armstrong further emphasized the importance of ongoing partnerships with established banks, stating, "We appreciate the ongoing partnership with KeyBank and our 14 other bank partners. This incremental capital will support the continued growth of our platform."

Partnership Success

Brett Goodwin, CFO of Great Rock Capital, attributed the company's success largely to the expanding capital base, highlighting the robust connections cultivated with their bank syndicate: "The continuous expansion of our capital base has been a major driver of Great Rock's success. We have developed a strong partnership with our bank syndicate to provide seamless financing to our growing number of loan customers."
