Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ESTA), a global medical technology company dedicated to improving women’s health and wellness, principally in breast aesthetics and reconstruction, today announced it has entered into a $300 million senior secured term loan facility with funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (“Oaktree”).


The amended and restated facility refinances the company’s existing debt and allows access to additional capital to support ongoing operations and future strategic growth initiatives.


“This strengthens our capital structure by extending our maturity and enhancing our financial flexibility,” said Sandra Harris, Chief Financial Officer of Establishment Labs. “The initial tranche fully refinances our existing debt until 2031 and the additional capacity provides flexibility to support future strategic initiatives. Our business continues to accelerate, and we expect to be positive free cash flow in the second half of this year with substantial growth ahead of us. Oaktree’s continued support reflects their long-standing confidence in our business, and we are very pleased to continue our collaboration with them.”


“Oaktree is proud to continue its support of Establishment Labs,” said Aman Kumar, Co-Portfolio Manager for Oaktree’s Life Sciences Lending platform. “Over the past four years, we have witnessed the company’s commitment to strong fundamentals and sustainable growth, supported by important innovation in breast aesthetics and reconstruction and the rapid market expansion of Motiva implants in the United States. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Establishment Labs and supporting the management team in its next phase of growth.”


Key Terms of the Credit Facility:



$300 million senior secured first-lien term loan with a five-year maturity



Two-tranche structure:


Tranche E, $265 million, used to refinance existing indebtedness



Tranche F, $35 million available for future growth initiatives






Fixed interest rate with potential step-down based on leverage targets



No amortization, with principal due at maturity



Flexible prepayment capability



Consistent with the terms of the existing debt, the amended and restated facility will be secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all assets of the company. The definitive documentation is substantially consistent with the company’s prior credit agreement, with updates reflecting current market terms and the company’s evolving and growing business.


Oaktree is a leading provider of debt and royalty financing for the global life sciences industry. Since 2020, funds managed by Oaktree have committed more than $6.0 billion across 44 investments for companies across the healthcare spectrum.

We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this report, or that we may make orally or in writing from time to time, are expressions of our beliefs and expectations based on currently available information at the time such statements are made. Such statements are based on assumptions, and the actual outcome will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors that are beyond our control. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future performance, and some will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, our actual future results and the timing of events may differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material. Factors, among others, that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those described in any forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties relating to: our ability to successfully, timely and cost-effectively develop, seek and obtain regulatory clearance for and commercialize our product offerings; the rate of adoption of our products by healthcare providers or other customers; the success of our marketing initiatives; the safe and effective use of our products; our ability to protect our intellectual property; our future expansion plans and capital allocation; our ability to expand upon and/or secure sources of credit or capital; our ability to develop and maintain relationships with qualified suppliers to avoid a significant interruption in our supply chains; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to scale our operations to meet market demands; the effect on our business of existing and new regulatory requirements; and other economic and competitive factors. These and other factors that could cause or contribute to actual results differing materially from our expectations include, among others, those risks and uncertainties discussed in the company's annual report on Form 10-K filed on February 27, 2026, which risks and uncertainties may be updated in the future in other filings made by the company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The risks included in those documents are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We are not undertaking any obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on known results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
