Our Short-term debt as of September 30, 2024, included commercial paper borrowings of $657 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.14 percent, and a weighted average maturity period of 24 days. In December 2022, Sensia entered into an unsecured $75 million line of credit. As of June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, included in Short-term debt was $70 million borrowed against the line of credit with an interest rate of 5.32 percent and 6.17 percent, respectively. Also included in Short-term debt as of June 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, was $14 million and $42 million, respectively, of interest-bearing loans from Schlumberger (SLB) to Sensia.

The loans outstanding as of September 30, 2024, were extended to October 15, 2026, and are included in Long-term debt as of June 30, 2025.
In May 2025, we entered into a $500 million senior unsecured 364-day term loan credit agreement and were advanced the full loan amount. This agreement is in addition to our existing $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in June 2027, which remains outstanding and undrawn. Borrowings under this term loan bear interest based on Secured Overnight Financing Rates (SOFR) in effect during the period the borrowings are outstanding, and the interest rate as of June 30, 2025, was 5.45 percent. The term loan agreement contains covenants similar to those under our $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, under which we agree to maintain an EBITDA-to-interest ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0. The EBITDA-to-interest ratio is defined in the term loan agreement as the ratio of consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the term loan agreement) for the preceding four quarters to consolidated interest expense for the same period.
