Pulsant has successfully completed a refinancing initiative and significantly expanded its debt facilities, now totalling £187 million. These enhancements have introduced four new lenders, ensuring Pulsant's strong financial footing for future ventures.
The newly refreshed five-year facility is pivotal in bolstering Pulsant's expansion strategy across the UK. This development will underpin future acquisitions, alongside further enhancement of their robust digital infrastructure that includes 14 sovereign data centres, a high-speed network, and advanced hybrid cloud capabilities under the Pulsant platformEDGE offering.
Such advancements underscore Pulsant's role as a leading UK digital infrastructure provider. The enhanced financial capabilities will enable the company to drive strategic growth, particularly focusing on addressing the needs of underserved areas in the UK. At the same time, this move promises to improve the operational efficiency and resilience of the existing Pulsant estate.
Brad Petzer, Chief Financial Officer at Pulsant, expressed satisfaction with the support garnered from the new lenders, aligning with Pulsant’s vision of creating the UK's pre-eminent Edge platform. He remarked on the pivotal role of this financial reorganisation in Pulsant's trajectory, highlighting prior achievements, such as the acquisition of two regional data centres from SCC earlier in the year.
These moves aim to empower businesses in the Midlands and South West, offering them access to Pulsant's unique network of data centres and advanced technological solutions, thereby opening avenues to new markets.
