| LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS | LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS Long-term debt is summarized as follows (in millions):
Credit Agreement On October 8, 2024, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement, Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and Amendment No. 2 to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated April 1, 2021 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) with certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and UBS AG as successor administrative agent and successor collateral agent. The amendment increased Company’s existing revolving credit facilities (the “Revolver”) to $800 million and extended the maturity of the Company’s existing revolving credit facilities to expire on October 8, 2029 (the “New Revolving Credit Facilities”) and provided for a new seven-year term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1,250 million with a maturity date of October 8, 2031 (the “New Term Facility”, together with the New Revolving Credit Facilities, the “New Credit Facilities”). In addition, the amendment increased the size of the letter of credit facility, provides for the issuance of letters of credit (the “L/C Facility”) of up to $500 million (the utilization of which would decrease availability under the New Revolving Credit Facilities) and permits the Company to have additional secured facilities for the issuance of letters of credit outside of the Amended Credit Agreement (the “Additional L/C Facility”) of up to $400 million (the utilization of which would not decrease availability under the New Revolving Credit Facilities). The aggregate amount of letters of credit which the Company may issue under the L/C Facility and the Additional L/C Facility may not at any time exceed $500 million, of which up to $400 million may be issued under the Additional L/C Facility. Borrowings under the New Term Facility initially bear interest at a per annum rate equal to Term SOFR, plus 2.00% subject to a stepdown of 0.25% based on achieving and maintaining a first lien net leverage ratio equal to or less than 0.50x. On August 12, 2025, the borrowing rate of the New Term Facility was amended by a Refinancing Facility Agreement and additional amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), that lowered the Company’s U.S. Dollar denominated term loans to bear interest at a rate of SOFR plus 1.75%, and reduced the spread on the revolving credit facilities by 12.5 to 25 basis points. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, negative and affirmative covenants and default provisions. The covenants limit, in certain circumstances, the Company’s ability to take a variety of actions, including, but not limited to: incurring or guaranteeing additional indebtedness or issuing preferred equity; creating or maintaining liens; making investments; paying dividends or making other restricted payments; consolidating or merging or transferring all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of the Company’s subsidiaries; transferring or selling assets, including stock of the Company’s subsidiaries; and redeeming debt. In particular, the New Revolving Credit Facilities require the Company to maintain a first lien net leverage ratio of not more than 3.00x, which will be tested only if more than 30% of the total revolving credit commitments extended under the New Revolving Credit Facilities are utilized as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, subject to certain exclusions. The New Term Facility does not have the benefit of, or have any rights with respect to, the financial maintenance covenant. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default which include, among other things, (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods) defaults based on (i) the failure to make payments under the Indenture when due, (ii) breach of covenants, (iii) the occurrence of a default under other material indebtedness, (iv) a change of control, (v) bankruptcy events and (vi) material judgments. The Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Amended Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2026. The Company obtains letters of credit that generally serve as collateral for certain liabilities included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and guaranteeing the Company’s performance under contracts. Letters of credit can be issued under two facilities provided in the Amended Credit Agreement and via bilateral arrangements outside the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company also has bilateral arrangements to issue letters of credit with various other financial institutions (the “Bilateral Arrangements”). The Bilateral Arrangements are not secured under the Amended Credit Agreement and do not decrease availability under the Revolver. Letters of credit outstanding (in millions):
5% Senior Notes In April 2021, the Company sold and issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2029 (“5% Notes”) at par in a private offering. The proceeds from the 5% Notes, together with cash on hand, was used: (i) to fund redemption and discharge of 5-5/8% Senior Notes and (ii) to pay related premiums, fees, discounts and expenses. The 5% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. The proceeds from the offering are presented in Long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company may redeem the 5% Notes in whole or in part, on or after May 15, 2024, at the redemption prices set forth in an indenture dated as of April 1, 2021. 6.25% Senior Notes On October 8, 2024, the Company sold and issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2032 (“6.25% Notes”) at par in a private offering. The proceeds from the 6.25% Notes, together with new term loan borrowings under the New Term Facility and cash on hand, were used to consummate the Company’s acquisition of ESG, and to pay the related fees, costs, and expenses. The 6.25% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. The proceeds from the offering are presented in Long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company may redeem the 6.25% Notes in whole or in part, on or after October 15, 2027, at the redemption prices set forth in an indenture dated as of October 8, 2024 (the “Indenture”). Prior to October 15, 2027, the Company may redeem the 6.25% Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus a “make-whole” premium set forth in the Indenture. In addition, prior to October 15, 2027, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the 6.25% Notes with an amount equal to the proceeds of certain equity offerings. Secured Borrowings In October 2023, the Company entered into a Framework Agreement to transfer value added tax (“VAT”) receivables to a financial institution in exchange for cash in advance. This arrangement was accounted for as a secured borrowing with a pledge of collateral for the cash proceeds received as the transfer does not meet the criteria for sale accounting. As a result, the VAT receivables pledged as collateral remain in receivables and a liability of $20 million and $21 million is presented in Long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The long term debt classification is based on estimated timing of VAT refund from the Italian government which is expected to be greater than 12 months. Fair Value of Debt The Company estimates the fair value of its debt set forth below as of June 30, 2026, as follows (in millions, except for quotes):
The fair value of debt reported in the table above is based on adjusted price quotations on the debt instruments in an inactive market. The Company believes that the carrying value of its other borrowings, including amounts outstanding, if any, for the revolving credit line under the Credit Agreement, approximate fair market value based on maturities for debt of similar terms. Fair values of debt reported in the table above are categorized under Level 2 of the ASC 820 hierarchy. See Note A – “Basis of Presentation” for an explanation of ASC 820 hierarchy.
