AAdvantage Term Loan Facility
On March 24, 2025, American and AAdvantage Loyalty IP Ltd. entered into a second amendment to the term loan credit and guaranty agreement dated March 24, 2021 (the Second Amendment). As a result of the Second Amendment, the term loans outstanding with a principal amount of approximately $2.3 billion were replaced with new term loans in the same principal amount. The terms of the new term loans are substantially similar to the prior term loans; however, the new term loans bear interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin of 1.25% per annum or, at American’s option, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) for a tenor of three months (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus an applicable margin of 2.25% per annum. Additionally, the scheduled quarterly principal amortization amount was reduced to 0.25% of the principal amount of term loans outstanding as of March 24, 2025 (approximately $6 million each quarter), payable beginning in July 2025, and the remaining balance is due at maturity in April 2028. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the new term loans are not subject to a cost spread adjustment.
6.50% Convertible Senior Notes
At March 31, 2025, the if-converted value of the 6.50% convertible senior notes due 2025 (the Convertible Notes) did not exceed the principal amount. The last reported sale price per share of our common stock (as defined in the indenture governing our Convertible Notes, the Convertible Notes Indenture) did not exceed 130% of the conversion price of the Convertible Notes for at least 20 of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on March 31, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes Indenture, the holders of the Convertible Notes can convert at their option beginning April 1, 2025, until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, July 1, 2025, of the Convertible Notes. Each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes is convertible at a rate of 61.7284 shares of AAG common stock, subject to adjustment as provided in the Convertible Notes Indenture.
On March 27, 2025, we provided notice to the holders of our Convertible Notes that we will settle our Convertible Notes at their upcoming maturity in cash (including any conversions up to a price per share of AAG common stock of approximately $22.00). We changed the default settlement method applicable to conversions of the Convertible Notes to provide that no shares of AAG common stock will be due upon settlement of the conversion of any Convertible Note (and, accordingly, such conversion will be settled entirely in cash) if the volume-weighted average price per share of AAG common stock does not exceed approximately $22.00 on any trading day of the 20 trading day “observation period” over which the consideration due upon conversion is calculated and determined.
Equipment Loans and Other Notes Payable Issued in 2025
During the first three months of 2025, American entered into agreements under which it borrowed $368 million in connection with the financing of certain aircraft. Debt incurred under these agreements matures in 2036 through 2037 and bears interest at variable rates (comprised of SOFR plus an applicable margin) averaging 6.15% as of March 31, 2025.
Other Financing Activities
In the first quarter of 2025, American prepaid $144 million of the outstanding principal amount of equipment notes issued under an EETC and this amount was applied to repay the related trust certificates. Additionally, American prepaid $308 million toward portions of the outstanding principal amounts of the 10.75% senior secured IP notes and 10.75% senior secured LGA/DCA notes.
