BGS just refinanced some of their 2028 debt a week or so ago.

B&G Foods Closes $550.0 Million Private Offering of Senior Secured Notes

finance.yahoo.com

5.25% 2025 debt became 8% 2028 debt.

I don't know if the remaining amounts of their nearer term maturities are going to do the same, but I would assume something similar.

As I wrote, if all of their $2.3b long term debt goes to 8% (or even 10%) they have (based on their forecasts and their recent history) EBITDA to cover interest payments.

So.......the debt amount is large, much more than normal for a food company, but it appears to be manageable, based on what we know today.

The debt is the same amount as it was a year ago, and a year ago BGS was $15, today it's $7.50. Same debt level.
