On September 30, 2025, Crane Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, CR Holdings, C.V., a subsidiary of the Company, as a subsidiary borrower, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $900 million (the “Term Facility”), which matures on September 30, 2030, and a senior unsecured revolving facility in an aggregate committed amount of $900 million (the “Revolving Facility”), which also matures on September 30, 2030. Debt refinancing fees associated with the Revolving Facility were $3.8 million, and are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
On December 29, 2025, the Company borrowed $900 million under the Term Facility and an additional $250 million under the Revolving Facility. The borrowings under the Term Facility and Revolving Facility were used, along with cash on-hand, to fund the consummation of the Company’s previously announced January 2026 acquisitions of Druck, Panametrics Reuter-Stokes, and optek-Danulat.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company made principal repayments of $247.5 million on the 2023 Term Facility. In connection with the entry into the Credit Agreement, the Company’s existing credit agreement, dated as of March 17, 2023, was terminated.
The Revolving Facility allows us to borrow, repay and re-borrow funds from time to time prior to the maturity of the Revolving Facility without any penalty or premium, subject to customary borrowing conditions for facilities of this type and the reimbursement of breakage costs. Borrowings under the Term Facility are prepayable without premium or penalty, subject to customary reimbursement of breakage costs. Borrowings made in U.S. dollars shall bear interest based, at the Company’s option, (i) on an alternate base rate plus a margin, or (ii) on a term SOFR rate plus a margin. Borrowings made in Euros shall bear interest based on an adjusted EURIBOR rate plus a margin. Borrowings made in Canadian Dollars shall bear interest based on an adjusted CORRA rate plus a margin as described below. The margin for each of the foregoing rates (other than the alternate base rate) ranges from 1.50% to 2.25% based on the Company’s consolidated total net leverage ratio (the “Pricing Ratio”). The margin for alternate base rate borrowings ranges from 0.50% to 1.25% depending on the Pricing Ratio. A commitment fee on the daily unused portion of the commitments under the Revolving Facility will accrue at a rate per annum ranging from 0.20% to 0.35% depending on the Pricing Ratio.
The Company will be required to repay borrowings under the Term Facility on the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the last day of the fifth full fiscal quarter ending after the Term Facility Funding Date (such day, the “Amortization Commencement Date”), in an amount equal to (i) with respect to the last day of each of the first through fourth full fiscal quarters ending on or after the Amortization Commencement Date, 0.625% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans made on the Term Facility Funding Date and (ii) thereafter, 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans made on the Term Facility Funding Date. The Revolving Facility is not subject to interim amortization.
The Credit Agreement contains representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants customary for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness, liens, mergers,
consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, sales of all or substantially all assets and transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, (i) a consolidated total net leverage ratio of no greater than 3.75 to 1.00, although such level may, at the Company’s option, be increased by 0.25 upon the consummation of certain permitted acquisitions for certain periods and (ii) a consolidated interest coverage ratio of no greater than 3.00 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of December 31, 2025.
