Bank and other loans

    In connection with the Merger (refer to Note 4, "Acquisitions and Divestitures"), the Company entered into a commitment letter with lending institutions, dated as of November 19, 2024, to provide a 364-day senior unsecured bridge loan facility (the "Bridge Facility") in an aggregate principal amount of up to $3.0 billion to fund the repayment of certain outstanding debt of Berry upon the closing of the Merger, and the payment of fees and expenses related to the Merger. The Company paid a commitment fee of $11 million on the Bridge Facility in the three months ended December 31, 2024. On February 13, 2025, the Company voluntarily reduced the commitments under the Bridge Facility by $800 million to an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 billion. On March 17, 2025, following the issuance of Notes (as defined above), the commitment for the Bridge Facility was terminated and the balance of the unamortized commitment fee of $8 million was expensed.

    The Company has entered into syndicated and bilateral multi-currency credit facilities with financial institutions. On March 3, 2025, the Company terminated its previous three- and five-year syndicated facility agreements, which collectively provided for $3.75 billion of credit facilities. On the same day, the Company entered into a five-year syndicated facility agreement of $3.75 billion which is unsecured and has a contractual maturity in March 2030. The agreement includes customary terms and conditions for a syndicated facility of this nature, and the facility has two 12 month options available to management to extend the maturity date. Subject to certain conditions, the Company can request the total commitment level under the agreement to be increased by up to $1.0 billion. Interest charged on borrowings under the credit facility is based on the applicable market rate plus the applicable margin. The three-year syndicated facility agreement also contains a covenant to maintain a net leverage ratio not to exceed 3.9:1.00, stepping up to a net leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25:1.00 for the twelve consecutive calendar months following the consummation of an acquisition with aggregate consideration in excess of $375 million.

Redemption of term debt

    The Company may redeem its long-term debt, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to its maturity. The redemption prices typically represent 100% of the principal amount of the relevant debt plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, for notes that are redeemed by the Company before their stated permitted redemption date, a make-whole premium is payable.
Priority, Guarantees, and Financial Covenants

    All the notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain existing subsidiaries that guarantee its other indebtedness.

    The Company's primary bank debt facilities and notes are unsecured and subject to negative pledge arrangements limiting the amount of secured indebtedness the Company can incur and indebtedness outside the guarantor group to 15.0% of total tangible assets, subject to some exceptions and variations by facility. The Company is required to satisfy certain financial covenants pursuant to its bank debt facilities, which are tested as of the last day of each quarterly and annual financial period. The covenants require the Company to maintain a leverage ratio of not higher than 3.9 times, stepping up to 4.25 times for the twelve consecutive calendar months following the consummation of an acquisition with an aggregate consideration in excess of $375 million. The leverage ratio is calculated as total net debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. As of June 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Short-Term Debt

    Short-term debt is generally used to fund working capital requirements. The Company has classified commercial paper as long-term as of June 30, 2025, in accordance with the Company’s ability and intent to refinance such obligations on a long-term basis.

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
