Debt Debt
Credit Facilities
Our $2.5 billion unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility, or Credit Facility, terminates on June 2, 2028. We can issue up to $2 billion of U.S. Dollar denominated commercial paper, and issue up to the equivalent of $500 million in British Pounds or Euro under a Euro commercial paper program. In addition, certain of our international subsidiaries have uncommitted credit lines that are guaranteed by Omnicom, aggregating $510.3 million. All of these facilities provide additional liquidity sources for operating capital and general corporate purposes. The $600 million Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement, or Term Loan Facility, automatically terminated on July 15, 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, there were no drawings under the Credit Facility or the Term Loan Facility, and no commercial paper issuances.
The Credit Facility has a financial covenant that requires us to maintain a Leverage Ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash charges) of no more than 3.5 times for the most recently ended 12-month period. At September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with this covenant as our Leverage Ratio was 2.8 times. The Credit Facility does not limit our ability to declare or pay dividends or repurchase our common stock.
Short-Term Debt
Short-term debt of $16.9 million and $10.9 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, represented bank overdrafts and short-term borrowings primarily of our international subsidiaries. Due to the short-term nature of this debt, carrying value approximates fair value.
