Cabot Corporation Secures $1.3 Billion Credit Facility With Maturity Extended to 2031 Cabot Corporation entered into a new unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility totaling $1.3 billion, arranged by a syndicate of global banks.
The new facility replaces and upsizes prior credit lines that were due in 2027 and extends maturity to May 2031.
Pricing is based on benchmark or risk-free rates plus a margin tied to Cabot’s credit ratings, and includes a leverage covenant that limits net debt to 3.75x consolidated EBITDA, with a temporary allowance up to 4.25x after material acquisitions.
This extended facility gives Cabot a longer liquidity runway and more room to manage funding needs for general corporate purposes over the next several years.
The leverage covenant levels also give you a sense of how much balance sheet risk the lending banks are comfortable with, especially if Cabot pursues larger acquisitions. Declared Dividend • May 07
