Credit Facilities and Debt
Revolving Credit Facility - On February 16, 2021, we entered into a credit agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), which provided for a $1.0 billion three-year senior secured multi-currency revolving credit facility including a $450.0 million letter of credit sub-facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). We incurred $34.8 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility. These debt issuance costs are deferred and are included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. The deferred debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility.
On April 24, 2023, we entered into a fifth amendment (the “Amendment No. 5”) to the Credit Agreement, which increased the commitments available to the Company to $1.25 billion and extended the term to five years from the date of the Amendment No. 5. The Credit Agreement also provides for a $250.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. We incurred $16.7 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Amendment No. 5. These debt issuance costs are deferred and are included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. The deferred debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Credit Agreement.
On June 23, 2025, we entered into a sixth amendment (“Amendment No. 6”) to the Credit Agreement, which amended or removed certain representations and warranties to allow the Credit Agreement to serve as a liquidity backstop for commercial paper and certain funds transactions.
Availability of borrowings under the Credit Agreement is reduced by the outstanding commercial paper and letters of credit issued against the facility. As of December 31, 2025, there were no letters of credit or commercial paper outstanding, and our availability under the Credit Agreement was $1.25 billion.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the following rates, plus an applicable margin, depending on currency:
•U.S. dollar-denominated loans bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a base rate or an adjusted rate linked to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Adjusted Term SOFR”).
•British pound-denominated loans bear interest on an adjusted rate linked to the Sterling Overnight Index Average Rate (“SONIA”).
•Euro-denominated loans bear interest on an adjusted rate linked to the Euro interbank offered rate.
After Moody’s upgrade to 'Baa2', the rate for Term Benchmark (as defined in the Credit Agreement) loans is 1.25% and the rate for base rate loan is 0.25% effective from September 5, 2025. The Credit Agreement is subject to customary representations and warranties, covenants, events of default, mandatory repayment provisions and financial covenants.
Commercial Paper - On June 23, 2025, we entered into commercial paper dealer agreements (each a “Dealer Agreement”) with two dealers (each, a “Dealer” and, collectively, the “Dealers”) for our $1.0 billion commercial paper program (the “Program”). Under the Program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes (the “Notes”) pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Amounts available under the Program may be borrowed, repaid and re‑borrowed from time to time, with the aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding under the Program at any time not to exceed $1.0 billion. The Notes have maturities of up to 364 days from date of issuance and rank at least pari passu with our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Our available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility is reduced by any outstanding commercial paper issued against the facility.
Letter of Credit Facility - On April 24, 2023, the Company entered into a $500 million five-year senior secured performance letters of credit facility (the “Performance LC Credit Agreement”). The commitments under the Performance LC Credit Agreement may be increased to $1.0 billion, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions precedent. The Performance LC Credit Agreement permits the Company and its subsidiaries to have access to performance letters of credit denominated in a variety of currencies to support the contracting activities with counterparties that require or request a performance or similar guarantee. It contains substantially the same customary representations and warranties, covenants, events of default, mandatory repayment provisions, and financial covenants as the Credit Agreement and benefits from the same guarantees and security as the Credit Agreement on a pari passu basis.
On March 7, 2024, S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) upgraded TechnipFMC to investment grade, raising its rating to ‘BBB-’ from ‘BB+’ for both the issuer credit as well as the issue-level ratings on the Company’s senior unsecured notes. On June 27, 2024, Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) assigned a first-time investment grade long-term issuer default rating of ’BBB-’ for TechnipFMC. As a result of the S&P and Fitch investment grade ratings and the satisfaction of certain other conditions precedent, the Investment Grade Debt Rating (as defined in the Credit Agreement) has occurred and the collateral securing the Credit Agreement and the Performance LC Credit Agreement was released and certain negative covenants no longer apply to the Company. On September 5, 2025, Moody’s upgraded TechnipFMC to ‘Baa2’ from ‘Baa3’, while revising the outlook to stable for the issuer-level rating.
2021 Notes - On January 29, 2021, we issued $1.0 billion of 6.50% senior notes due 2026 (the “2021 Notes”). On August 22, 2025, we prepaid the remaining principal amount of the 2021 Notes, plus accrued interest. The prepayment was made at par, in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the 2021 Notes, which allowed for repayment without penalty beginning February 1, 2025. The 2021 Notes were senior unsecured obligations and were guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by substantially all of our wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries and non-U.S. subsidiaries in Brazil, Netherlands, Norway, Singapore, and the United Kingdom.
As of December 31, 2025, TechnipFMC was in compliance with all debt covenants.

The remaining 2013 and 2012 Private Placement Notes contain usual and customary covenants and events of default for notes of this type. In the event of a change of control resulting in a downgrade in the rating of the notes below BBB-, the remaining 2013 and 2012 Private Placement Notes may be redeemed early at the request of any bondholder, at its sole discretion. The remaining 2013 and 2012 Private Placement Notes are our unsecured obligations. The remaining 2013 and 2012 Private Placement Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsubordinated debt.
Term loan - In December 2016, we entered into a £160.0 million term loan agreement to finance the Deep Explorer, a diving support vessel (“DSV”), maturing in December 2028. Under the loan agreement, interest accrues at an annual rate of 2.813%. This loan agreement contains usual and customary covenants and events of default for loans of this type. The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2025, was $53.7 million.
Bank borrowings - In January 2019, we executed a sale-leaseback transaction to finance the purchase of a deepwater dive support vessel, Deep Discoverer (the “Vessel”) for the full transaction price of $116.8 million. The sale-leaseback agreement (“Charter”) was entered into with a French joint-stock company, owned by Credit Industrial et Commercial (“CIC”) which was formed for the sole purpose to purchase and act as the lessor of the Vessel. It is a variable interest entity, which is fully consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. The transaction was funded through debt of $96.2 million and will expire on January 8, 2031. The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2025, was $49.0 million.
Foreign committed credit - We have committed credit lines at many of our international subsidiaries for immaterial amounts. We utilize these facilities for asset financing and to provide a more efficient daily source of liquidity. The effective interest rates depend upon the local national market.

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.
