Senior Notes
In June 2026, the Company issued $5.000 billion principal amount of notes, as described in more detail in the preceding table (the “2026 USD Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2026 USD Notes (after deducting the original issue discount, underwriting discount and offering expenses) were $4.978 billion.
The 2026 USD Notes are not subject to any financial covenants, are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with any future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. At the Company’s option, the notes may be redeemed in whole, or in part, at any time for a specified make-whole amount, with the exception of the Floating Rate Notes.
Commercial Paper Program and Credit Facility
The Company has a commercial paper program (the “Commercial Paper Program”) under which the Company is authorized to issue up to $8 billion in unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issuance. The Commercial Paper Program is available in U.S. dollars.
In conjunction with the Commercial Paper Program, the Company has a committed five-year unsecured $8 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility is set to expire on November 7, 2030. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are available in U.S. dollars and/or euros. The facility fee under the Credit Facility is determined according to the Company’s credit rating and is payable on the average daily commitment, regardless of usage, per annum. In addition to the facility fee, interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility would be based on prevailing market interest rates plus applicable margins that fluctuate based on the Company’s credit rating. The Credit Facility contains customary representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and indemnification provisions. The Company was in compliance, in all material respects, with the covenants of the Credit Facility at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program and the Credit Facility, which may total up to $8 billion, are to be used to provide liquidity for general corporate purposes, including providing liquidity in the event of one or more settlement failures by the Company’s customers. The Company may borrow and repay amounts under the Commercial Paper Program and Credit Facility for business continuity purposes.
At June 30, 2026, the Company had $710 million of commercial paper outstanding, with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.84%. At June 30, 2026, the Company had no borrowings under the Credit Facility. At December 31, 2025, the Company had no borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program or Credit Facility. The Commercial Paper Program is supported by the Credit Facility.
