SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND CREDIT LINES
NOTE 5 — SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND CREDIT LINES
The carrying amounts reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for Notes payable approximate fair value.
On March 7, 2025, the Company entered into a 364-day committed credit facility agreement with a syndicate of banks, which provides for up to $1 billion of borrowings, with an option to increase borrowings up to $1.5 billion in total with lender approval. The facility matures on March 6, 2026, with an option to extend the maturity date an additional 364 days. This facility replaces the prior $1 billion 364-day credit facility agreement entered into on March 8, 2024, which matured on March 7, 2025. In July 2025, Standard and Poor's Corporation downgraded the Company's senior unsecured debt rating from AA- to A+. Based on the Company's current long-term senior unsecured debt ratings of A+ and A1 from Standard and Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investor Services, respectively, the interest rate charged on any outstanding borrowings would be the prevailing Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") for the applicable interest period plus 0.725%. The facility fee is 0.04% of the total undrawn commitment.
On March 7, 2025, the Company entered into a five-year committed credit facility agreement with a syndicate of banks which provides for up to $2 billion of borrowings, with the option to increase borrowings up to $3 billion in total with lender approval. The facility matures on March 7, 2030, with options to extend the maturity date up to an additional two years. This facility replaces the prior $2 billion five-year credit facility agreement entered into on March 11, 2022, which would have matured on March 11, 2027. In July 2025, Standard and Poor's Corporation downgraded the Company's senior unsecured debt rating from AA- to A+. Based on the Company's current long-term senior unsecured debt ratings of A+ and A1 from Standard and Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investor Services, respectively, the interest rate charged on any outstanding borrowings would be the prevailing Term SOFR for the applicable interest period plus 0.725%. The facility fee is 0.05% of the total undrawn commitment.
As of and for the periods ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, no amounts were outstanding under any of the Company's committed credit facilities.
