$8.0m Upsizing of Investment in Hoover Circular Solutions

Riverstone Credit Opportunities Income ("RCOI" or the "Company"), the LSE-listed energy infrastructure and energy-transition credit investor, is pleased to announce the upsizing of its investment in Hoover Circular Solutions ("Hoover"), a sponsor-backed company that is a global leading specialty rental provider of containers and mobile asset management solutions across the energy, industrial, refining, and petrochemical industries.

In October 2020, RCOI participated in a recapitalization of the borrower, with the equity sponsor investing over $90 million of new cash equity to completely refinance the capital structure. At closing on 1 October 2020, $7.4 million was committed by RCOI and $3.8 million was still outstanding as of the recent quarter end 30 June 2022. On 1 September 2022, RCOI was able to invest an additional $8.0 million of equity in this first lien, floating rate investment.  

Christopher Abbate, Co-Founder of Riverstone Credit, RCOI's investment adviser said:

"Hoover Circular Solutions is a company with which we have a long history and intricate familiarity, and which provides essential infrastructure and services to the petrochemicals sector. We believe this upsizing represents a compelling opportunity for RCOI to increase exposure to a short duration investment with a highly attractive yield."
