Credit Facilities
The Company maintains a senior revolving credit facility, which was amended and restated on January 13, 2023. It consists of a five-year revolving facility in the principal amount of up to $1,000.0, with the option of increasing the facility by up to an additional $500.0, subject to the agreement of one or more new or existing lenders to provide such additional amounts and certain other customary conditions. The revolving credit facility also provides for a subfacility of up to $100.0 for swing line borrowings and a subfacility of up to $150.0 for issuances of letters of credit. The Company is required to pay a facility fee on the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility, at a per annum rate ranging from 0.10% to 0.225%, depending on the Company’s debt ratings. The revolving credit facility is permitted to be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, funding of share repurchases and certain other payments, acquisitions, and other investments. There were no balances outstanding on the Company’s current revolving credit facility at December 31, 2024, or December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2024, the effective interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 5.47%. The credit facility expires on April 30, 2026.
Under the Company’s revolving credit facility, the Company is subject to negative covenants limiting subsidiary indebtedness and certain other covenants typical for investment grade-rated borrowers and the Company is required to maintain certain leverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants in its term loans and the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2024, and expects that it will remain in compliance with its existing debt covenants for the next twelve months.
There were $102.7 in outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2024.
On August 23, 2024, the Company and a bankruptcy-remote special purpose vehicle (SPV) entered into an accounts receivable securitization facility with PNC Bank, National Association (PNC) with a three-year term (AR Facility). The AR Facility allows the Company to borrow from PNC an amount of up to $300.0 through August of 2027 and may increase up to $700.0, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
The SPV is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The SPV’s sole business consists of the continuous purchase of receivables from the Company which is used as collateral for the loan with PNC. Although the SPV is included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, it is a separate legal entity with separate creditors.
Upon the transfer of ownership and control of the receivables to the SPV, the Company has no retained interests in the receivables sold and they become unavailable to the Company’s creditors should the relevant seller become insolvent. The Company has collection and administrative responsibilities for the receivables sold to the SPV.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company received loan proceeds of $300.0 under the AR Facility, which is included in financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
On January 31, 2025, the Company amended its AR Facility (AR Facility Amendment). The AR Facility Amendment increased the amount the Company can borrow from $300.0 to $700.0 through August of 2027. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the AR Facility Amendment (i) the Toronto-Dominion Bank became a party to the underlying receivables purchase agreement as a committed purchaser through January 2026. and (ii) MUFG Bank Ltd. and certain of its related conduit purchasers became parties to the underlying receivables purchase agreement as purchasers and the loans or investments of such
conduit purchasers may accrue interest as specified in the AR Facility Amendment and receivables purchase agreement.
On February 18, 2025, the Company borrowed an additional $225.0 under the AR Facility Amendment, bringing the amount outstanding under the AR Facility Amendment to $525.0.
