Sunrise Realty Trust Expands Credit Facility To $90M With CNB As Joint Lead Arranger

(RTTNews) - Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc. Tuesday has expanded its senior secured revolving credit facility to $90 million, following a new $40 million commitment from City National Bank of Florida or CNB, which joins as Joint Lead Arranger.

East West Bank (EWBC), the Administrative Agent, initially committed $50 million when the facility launched in November 2024. The facility remains expandable up to $200 million, subject to standard conditions and participation from additional lenders.

CNB's Anthony Martinez highlighted that the commitment reflects the bank's trust in SUNS' leadership and its relationship-driven approach to private credit, aligning with CNB's broader capital markets efforts.

Tuesday, EWBC closed at $94.34, down 0.76%, and is currently trading after hours at $95.82, up 1.56% on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
