QVC refinances credit facility

September 03, 2010

QVC has refinanced its credit facility with a new revolving line of credit of as much as $2 billion.

The West Chester-based home-shopping channel, which is owned by Liberty Media Corp. of Englewood, Colo., immediately drew $1.83 billion at closing, Liberty Media said Thursday in a release.

The new maturity date of 2015 replaces the credit facilities that were to expire between 2011 and 2014, while reducing the weighted average rate.

"The new facilities enhance QVC's credit profile and further strengthen its balance sheet by providing additional financial flexibility and liquidity," said Greg Maffei, president and CEO of Liberty.    - Roslyn Rudolph
