The following information is about Recapitalization.

Recapitalization Defined

Companies change the structure of its debt and equity because they have too much debt and too little equity or because interest rates have dropped. A recapitalization is akin to a mortgage refinancing for an individual. Typically, when a company uses an IPO to recapitalize, it uses the proceeds to pay off some of its debt and replaces the remaining debt with new debt obtained on more favorable terms.

This definition is in context to IPO. See more contextual defintions for Recapitalization.
