SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
Cash Paid for Taxes (Net of Cash Refunds)
On a total company basis, income tax payments, net of refunds, were $1,109.8 and $330.1 for the nine months ended 30 June 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Credit Agreement
On 31 March 2017, we entered into a five-year $2,500.0 revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “2017 Credit Agreement”), under which senior unsecured debt is available to both the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The 2017 Credit Agreement provides a source of liquidity for the Company and supports its commercial paper program. The Company’s only financial covenant is a maximum ratio of total debt to total capitalization (total debt plus total equity) no greater than 70%. No borrowings were outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement as of 30 June 2017.
The 2017 Credit Agreement terminates and replaces our previous $2,690.0 revolving credit agreement (the “2013 Credit Agreement”), which was to mature 30 April 2018. No borrowings were outstanding under the previous agreement at the time of its termination, and no early termination penalties were incurred.
Subsequent Event
On 20 July 2017, the Board of Directors declared the fourth quarter dividend of $.95. The dividend is payable on 13 November 2017 to shareholders of record at the close of business on 10 October 2017.
