T2 Biosystems (NASDAQ:TTOO), Inc., a company specializing in medical instruments and apparatus, has entered into a significant amendment to its existing Term Loan Agreement, as disclosed in a recent SEC filing.
According to InvestingPro data, the company operates with a significant debt burden, with total debt of $18.94 million as of the latest quarter, while maintaining a concerning current ratio of 0.4. On Thursday, the Massachusetts-based company announced that it had reached an agreement with CRG Servicing LLC, acting as the administrative and collateral agent, along with other lenders, to modify the terms of its debt.
The amendment, known as the Twelfth Amendment, includes several key changes. It waives certain events of default that had occurred under the original loan agreement. The company also negotiated the ability to pay interest in-kind, meaning it can be paid with additional debt rather than cash, on the maturity date. Moreover, the amendment increases the final payment fee that T2 Biosystems will owe from 10% to 14%.
One of the most notable changes is the extension of the interest-only payment period and the maturity date of the loan. Both have been pushed back from December 31, 2025, to March 31, 2026, giving T2 Biosystems an additional quarter to meet its obligations.
This financial maneuvering reflects T2 Biosystems' efforts to restructure its debt and enhance its financial flexibility. The Twelfth Amendment's details will be included as an exhibit in the company's upcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2024.

In other recent news, T2 Biosystems reported a 34% increase in revenue for the third quarter of 2024, driven primarily by the FDA-cleared T2Bacteria Panel. The company also secured 11 T2Dx instrument contracts, contributing to a 78% rise in international sales. T2 Biosystems has also expanded its reach through strategic partnerships, including an exclusive commercial distribution agreement with Cardinal Health (NYSE:CAH) and new distribution agreements in Malaysia and Indonesia.
In addition, the company made significant board changes and approved amendments to its incentive plan. Stockholders elected Laura Adams, Robin Toft, and Seymour Liebman as Class I directors and approved the amendment and restatement of the 2014 Incentive Award Plan.
However, T2 Biosystems faces potential delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market due to non-compliance with the exchange's minimum bid price requirement. Despite these challenges, the company continues to develop new products and extend supplier agreements, including a recent extension with Vizient until March 2026.
