Monitor Borr's ability to contract the five acquired rigs in Mexico and the pace of cash flow generation to service the $237M seller's credit maturing in Jan 2029.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Borr Drilling completed the acquisition of five premium jack-up rigs in Mexico through a 50/50 joint venture for $287 million, financed via a $237 million non-recourse seller's credit and $25 million cash from each JV partner. The deal expands Borr's owned and jointly-owned fleet to 34 rigs and deepens its presence in the Mexican shallow-water market, but the seller's credit maturing in January 2029 adds leverage risk.
