CPI Aerostructures amended its existing credit agreement to increase revolving credit commitments from $17 million to $35 million and to continue a $3.9 million principal balance term loan. The revolving credit line was extended four years until December 5, 2016. The facility permits CPI Aero to request increases in revolving credit commitments to up to $50 million in aggregate. Valley National Bank joined Sovereign Bank as a lender under the facility.

Edward J. Fred, CPI Aero’s CEO and president stated, “We are pleased to have Sovereign Bank once again participate in the company’s growth and be our partner as we look to expand our business further. We are also excited to have Valley  National Bank join this lending team and look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with them, as we have experienced with Sovereign Bank.

“This increase in total borrowing capability allows us to continue to bid on programs of significant magnitude, to work on accelerating our growth and to enhance our long-term visibility. We once again thank Sovereign Bank and Valley National Bank for their support as we meet the challenges of a growing organization,” Fred concluded.
