Happy Fourth of July to those who celebrate! It was a quiet week for obvious reasons with yesterday’s holiday, but there were still a few things to catch up on if you were away from the desk.
BMC Software priced a hefty refinancing this week with a new $4.31bn TLB and €1.475bn TLB due 2031, and $750m second lien term loan due 2032, all of which priced at the tight end of talk.
