HEICO Corporation increased its $670 million revolving credit facility to an aggregate potential future capacity of $1 billion and that it also extended the facility by an additional year until December 2018.  Under the amendment, $800 million of the facility is now fully committed for funding and an additional $200 million has been committed subject to future consent of the lenders.
