GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., June 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Advanced Emissions Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADES) (the “Company” or “ADES”), the parent company of ADA-ES, Inc. and ADA Carbon Solutions, LLC (collectively, “ADA”), today announced that it has repaid its outstanding indebtedness related to its three-year term loan. The final principal payment of $6.0 million, together with accrued interest, was repaid in full, without penalty on June 1, 2021.

On December 7, 2018, the Company and Apollo Credit Strategies Master Fund Ltd and Apollo A-N Credit Fund (Delaware) L.P. (collectively “Apollo”), executed the $70.0 million secured Term Loan and Security Agreement to fund the acquisition of ADA Carbon Solutions, LLC.
