SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloudera, Inc. (NYSE: CLDR), the enterprise data cloud company, today announced the successful completion of a covenant lite, $500 million senior secured term loan (the "Term Loan B") and the repurchase of all shares of Cloudera common stock held by Intel Corporation ("Intel"). 

"We completed two important transactions this week with the closing of a $500 million debt issuance and the repurchase of Intel's stake in the company for $314 million," said Rob Bearden, chief executive officer, Cloudera. "We are very pleased that we were able to immediately put to work a significant portion of our recently announced $500 million share repurchase authorization at an attractive price. Buying back Intel's position enables us to retire more than 26 million shares of Cloudera common stock outstanding. Also, the strength of our business and current debt market conditions allowed us to achieve loan terms far more favorable than we had expected, making these events even more impactful on our capital structure while preserving substantial balance sheet flexibility."

The Term Loan B has a 7-year tenor and will bear interest at LIBOR plus 250 bps. The proceeds are intended for general corporate purposes and share repurchases.
