First Capital, a specialized commercial finance company, announced today that it extended the maturity of its $150 million senior secured credit facility with a group of lenders, including Key Equipment Finance, through October 2014.

“This transaction completes a cycle of debt refinancings totaling $550 million that we began late last year,” said Glen Stein, Chief Financial Officer of First Capital.  “The company has plenty of long term debt, with no debt maturing for the next 5 quarters.”

“We will be entering the fifth year of our relationship with First Capital and have continued our support as a result of the company’s performance and success in the market,” said Rian Emmett, Managing Director of Key Equipment Finance’s Lender Finance unit.
