DocGo (NASDAQ: DCGO) amends credit deal to support Hicuity merger with new term-loan commitments

What happened

DocGo Inc. (NASDAQ: DCGO) amended its credit agreement on October 1, 2026. It had $52 million of existing term loans outstanding immediately before the change. The amended agreement gives consent for the Hicuity merger and converts the existing term loans into a term loan A. It also adds a $25 million term loan D commitment and a $12.5 million term loan B commitment.

On August 16, 2026, Hicuity, DocGo, Ambulnz, HH Merger Sub, LLC, and Concord Innovation Fund II, LP entered into the merger agreement. The filing says DocGo, Ambulnz, and certain subsidiaries became obligors. It also says the prior agreement was restated in full. The parties did not mean to replace the old debt with a new obligation.

Why it matters

OptimistFi's case is that DocGo works only if 2025 proves to have been a contract/reset year. This filing only shows the financing side of that reset. The new term loan D commitment equals about 48.1% of the $52 million existing term-loan balance, so the amendment is large enough to matter before any further borrowing. That makes the filing a financing baseline, not proof of durable demand.

The filing is about debt terms and merger consent, not customer demand or profitability. So it does not answer the investment question by itself. The $25 million term loan D and $12.5 million term loan B commitments show lender support. But the agreement also says the existing obligations continue in full force and effect.

What's next

Hicuity will merge with and into MergerCo. After the merger, Hicuity will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ambulnz. That happens only if the merger agreement conditions are satisfied, so the financing reset still depends on the deal closing.

If closing happens, the loan structure will line up with the transaction it supports. If it does not, the document remains a debt step and not operating proof. The next check is whether the merger closes.
