Revolving Credit Facility
During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we replaced our $3.0 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “2021 credit facility”) with a new $3.0 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “2025 credit facility”).
Our 2025 credit facility, of which $150.0 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit, is currently set to mature on June 13, 2030. The 2025 credit facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and share repurchases. We have the option, subject to negotiation and agreement with the related banks, to increase the maximum commitment amount by an additional $1.0 billion.
Borrowings under the 2025 credit facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate based on the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”), and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the 2025 credit facility), in each case plus an applicable rate. The applicable rate is based on the Company’s long-term credit ratings assigned by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies. The 2025 credit facility contains alternative interest rate provisions specifying rate calculations to be used at such time Term SOFR ceases to be available as a benchmark due to reference rate reform. The “Base Rate” of interest is the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, (iii) Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and (iv) 1.00%. Upon the occurrence of any event of default under the 2025 credit facility, interest on the outstanding amount of the indebtedness under the 2025 credit facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 2% in excess of the interest then borne by such borrowings.
The 2025 credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of June 29, 2025, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. No amounts were outstanding under our 2025 credit facility as of June 29, 2025, or our 2021 credit facility as of September 29, 2024.
Short-term Debt
Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $3.0 billion, with individual maturities that may vary but not exceed 397 days from the date of issue. Amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program are required to be backstopped by available commitments under our 2025 credit facility. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock, and share repurchases. We had no borrowings outstanding under our commercial paper program as of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024. Our total available contractual borrowing capacity for general corporate purposes was $3.0 billion as of the end of our third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Additionally, we hold the following Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities that are available for working capital needs and capital expenditures within our Japanese market:
A ¥5.0 billion, or $34.6 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on December 30, 2025. Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate (“TIBOR”) plus an applicable margin of 0.400%.
A ¥10.0 billion, or $69.2 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on March 27, 2026. Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.300%.
As of June 29, 2025 and September 29, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under these credit facilities.
