Short-Term Borrowings

We had no outstanding borrowings from U.S. commercial paper as of December 28, 2024 and $112 million of outstanding borrowings from U.S. commercial paper issuances as of December 30, 2023 with a weighted average interest rate of 5.54%.

We have a Euro-Commercial Paper Program under which we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding of $500 million. Proceeds from issuances under this program may be used for general corporate purposes. The maturities of the notes vary, but may not exceed 364 days from the date of issuance. Our payment obligations with respect to any notes issued under this program are backed by our revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”). There are no financial covenants under this program. We had no outstanding balance as of December 28, 2024 and $199.2 million outstanding under this program as of December 30, 2023 with a weighted average interest rate of 4.13%.

Short-Term Credit Facilities

In June 2024, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") related to the Revolver to borrow up to an aggregate of $1.2 billion through its maturity date of June 26, 2029. The Revolver refinanced the prior revolving credit facility under the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 13, 2020, as amended. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the commitments under the Revolver may be increased by up to $600 million, subject to lender approvals and customary requirements. Under certain circumstances, we may request that the commitments under the Revolver be extended for one-year periods in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. We use the Revolver as a back-up facility for our commercial paper program and for other corporate purposes.

No balance was outstanding under the Revolver as of December 28, 2024 or our prior revolving credit facility as of December 30, 2023. Commitment fees associated with revolving credit facilities in 2024, 2023 and 2022 were $1.5 million, $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

In addition to the Revolver, we have short-term lines of credit available in various countries of approximately $261 million in the aggregate at December 28, 2024. These lines may be cancelled at any time by us or the issuing banks. Borrowings under our short-term lines of credit were not material as of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023.

From time to time, we provide guarantees on certain arrangements with banks. Our exposure to these guarantees is not material.

Long-Term Borrowings

In November 2024, we issued €500 million of senior notes, due November 4, 2034, which bear an interest rate of 3.750% per year, payable annually in arrears. Our net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were approximately €495 million ($539 million), which we intend to use to repay our €500 million of senior notes maturing in March 2025 and for general corporate purposes.

In August 2024, we repaid our $300 million of senior notes at maturity using cash flows from operations and commercial paper borrowings.

During 2024, we reclassified our $5 million of medium-term notes due in the third quarter of 2025, $25 million of medium-term notes due in the second quarter of 2025 and €500 million of senior notes due in the first quarter of 2025 from "Long-term debt and finance leases" to "Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt and finance leases" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In March 2023, we issued $400 million of senior notes, due March 15, 2033, which bear an interest rate of 5.750% per year, payable semiannually in arrears. Our net proceeds from this issuance, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were $394.9 million, which we used to repay indebtedness under our commercial paper programs and our $250 million of senior notes that matured on April 15, 2023.

At year-end 2024 and 2023, our medium-term notes had accrued interest at a weighted average fixed rate of 7.5%.

We expect maturities of our long-term debt for each of the next five fiscal years and thereafter to be as follows:

Other

The Revolver contains a financial covenant requiring that we maintain a specified ratio of total debt minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $50 million to a certain measure of income. As of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this financial covenant.

Our total interest costs in 2024, 2023 and 2022 were $124.0 million, $126.5 million and $89.8 million, respectively, of which $7.0 million, $7.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, was capitalized as part of the cost of property, plant and equipment, capitalized software and capitalized implementation costs associated with cloud computing arrangements.

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is primarily based on the credit spread above U.S. Treasury securities or euro government bond securities, as applicable, on notes with similar rates, credit ratings and remaining maturities. The fair value of short-term borrowings, which includes commercial paper issuances and short-term lines of credit, approximates their carrying value given their short duration. The fair value of our total debt was $3.01 billion at December 28, 2024 and $3.11 billion at December 30, 2023. Fair value amounts were determined based primarily on Level 2 inputs.
