The company said it will fund key customer-driven growth initiatives, support an accelerated network evolution plan and refinance a portion of its senior debt with the money, from Astra Capital Management and UBS O’Connor’s O’Connor Capital Solutions.
Logix CEO Craig Collins (pictured) said: “This is a critical step in aggressively building upon Logix’s reputation as the premier business fibre provider in Texas and this commitment will help us to continue growing our enterprise and carrier fibre network, expand into new markets, serve more customers, and create value for all stakeholders.”
Collins joined Logix as CEO in 2020, having previously worked at 5G company Transit Wireless, and earlier Intermedia Communications, XO Communications and Time Warner Cable.
