AMF Bowling Worldwide Increases Capacity for Future Acquisitions
Richmond, Virginia, January 15, 1997 - AMF Bowling Worldwide announced
that it has completed an amendment to its $715 million credit facility to
increase the flexibility and borrowing capacity of its ongoing acquisition
program. In conjunction with this amendment, AMF issued $65 million of long
term debt and used these proceeds to reduce outstanding borrowings under its
acquisition facility. As a result, AMF increased the availability for future
borrowings under its acquisition facility to $141.5 million.
AMF Bowling Worldwide was formed on May 1, 1996 as a result of the
acquisition of AMF's Bowling Products and Bowling Centers operations by a group
of investors led by an affiliate of Goldman, Sachs & Co. Since May 1, 1996, AMF
Bowling Worldwide has acquired 57 bowling centers under its ongoing acquisition
program and at December 31, 1996, owned and operated 341 bowling centers in
eleven countries.
