Interest Coverage Ratio Clause Samples

The Interest Coverage Ratio clause sets a minimum threshold for a borrower's ability to meet interest payments on its debt, typically by requiring that earnings or cash flow exceed interest expenses by a specified multiple. In practice, this clause is often used in loan agreements or bond covenants, where the borrower must regularly demonstrate compliance by providing financial statements showing the ratio is maintained above the agreed level. Its core function is to protect lenders by ensuring the borrower remains financially stable and capable of servicing its debt, thereby reducing the risk of default.
