[1] In fiscal 2018 we entered into certain cross-currency interest rate swap agreements that have the economic effect of converting our fixed-rate, Euro-denominated debt, including annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to a variable-rate, U.S. Dollar-denominated debt of $871 million based on LIBOR. The effective interest rates as of May 31, 2025 after consideration of the cross-currency interest rate swap agreements were 7.77% for the July 2025 Notes. Refer to Note 1 for a description of our accounting for fair value hedges. The July 2025 Notes were repaid in full upon maturity in July 2025.
[2] In fiscal 2026, we issued $43.0 billion of senior notes for general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, repayment of indebtedness, future investments or acquisitions and payment of cash dividends on or repurchases of our common stock.
[3] In fiscal 2023, we entered into certain interest rate swap agreements that have the economic effect of converting our $4.7 billion of floating-rate borrowings pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement (defined below) until its repayment and subsequently, borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement 2 (defined below) for the same amount to fixed-rate borrowings with a fixed annual interest rate of 3.07%, plus a margin depending on the credit rating assigned to our long-term senior unsecured debt, as further discussed below. The effective interest rates after consideration of the interest rate swap agreements were 4.74% for each of fiscal 2026 and 2025, for borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement 2 (defined below). Refer to Note 1 for a description of our accounting for cash flow hedges.
