Flowserve renews $1B credit facility to 2031

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Flowserve Corporation entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Bank of America and other lenders, establishing a $1,000.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility and an unsecured term loan facility of up to $450.0 million, both maturing on April 15, 2031.

On the closing date, the company drew approximately $450.0 million under the term loan and $250.0 million under the revolver to refinance existing debt and for general corporate purposes. Pricing is based on Term SOFR plus 1.000%–1.750% or, at Flowserve’s option, a Base Rate plus 0.000%–0.750%, with initial margins of Term SOFR plus 1.375% and Base Rate plus 0.375%.

The facility includes a $750.0 million sublimit for letters of credit, a $30.0 million swing line sublimit, an option to increase the revolver by up to $400.0 million, and customary financial covenants such as consolidated net leverage and interest coverage ratios.

Insights

Credit markets analyst

Flowserve refinances and extends a large credit facility with stable covenant terms.

Flowserve replaced its prior agreement with a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement providing a $1,000.0 million unsecured revolver and up to $450.0 million in term loans, both maturing on April 15, 2031. This consolidates and refreshes its core bank financing.

About $450.0 million of term loans and $250.0 million of revolver borrowings were drawn to refinance existing debt and for general corporate purposes, so this is largely a balance-sheet rollover rather than incremental leverage. Pricing is tied to debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, with margins ranging from 1.000%–1.750% over Term SOFR.

The facility includes a $750.0 million letter-of-credit sublimit, a $30.0 million swing line sublimit, and an option to increase the revolver by up to $400.0 million, plus maintenance covenants on consolidated net leverage and interest coverage. Actual impact will depend on future borrowing levels and the company’s maintained credit ratings.

revolving credit facility financial

"provides for (x) a $1,000.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility"

A revolving credit facility is a type of loan that a business can borrow from whenever it needs money, up to a set limit. It’s like having a credit card for companies—allowing them to borrow, pay back, and borrow again as needed, providing flexibility for managing cash flow or funding short-term expenses.

Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate financial

"The interest rates per annum ... will be Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate"

Term secured overnight financing rate (Term SOFR) is a forward-looking interest rate that estimates the expected average cost of borrowing cash for a specified future period (for example, one or three months) using overnight, collateralized repurchase (repo) transactions backed by U.S. Treasury securities. Unlike the overnight SOFR, which reflects actual transactions that settled that day, Term SOFR is derived from derivatives and market-implied forward rates to produce a single quoted rate for the upcoming term and is used in contracts that require a known rate at the start of the period rather than a rate compounded in arrears.

Base Rate financial

"or, at the option of the Company, the Base Rate (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement)"

The base rate is the primary interest rate set by a central authority or used as a benchmark for pricing loans, savings and other financial products. Think of it as the anchor in a floating system: when the base rate moves, borrowing costs, corporate financing and consumer spending tend to shift too, which can change company profits and investor returns across the market.

letters of credit financial

"includes a $750.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit"

A letter of credit is a promise from a bank to pay a seller if the buyer fails to do so, commonly used in trade and large contracts to ensure payment. Think of it as a bank standing in for the buyer, like a certified check or payment insurance that reduces the risk of nonpayment. For investors, letters of credit matter because they affect a company’s cash flow, borrowing needs and contingent liabilities, and signal how much credit support a business requires to secure deals.

consolidated net leverage ratios financial

"including maintenance of consolidated net leverage ratios and interest coverage"

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent

On April 15, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), Flowserve Corporation (the “Company”) amended and restated its credit agreement (the “Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders (together, the “Lenders” and each individually, a “Lender”) and letter of credit issuers party thereto. The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, among other things provides for (x) a $1,000.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (which includes a $750.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $30.0 million sublimit for swing line loans) and the right, subject to certain conditions including a Lender approving any such increase, to increase the amount of such revolving credit facility by an aggregate amount not to exceed $400.0 million, (y) an unsecured term loan facility in the amount up to $450.0 million and (z) a maturity date for the revolving and term loans of April 15, 2031.

On the Closing Date, approximately $450.0 million was drawn under the term loan facility and approximately $250.0 million was drawn under the revolving credit facility to refinance the existing debt of the Company and to be used for general corporate purposes. As of the Closing Date, the Company had approximately $250 million of revolving loans outstanding, approximately $443.8 million of term loans outstanding and approximately $79.3 million of outstanding letters of credit under the Company’s then-existing Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 10, 2024, as amended, among the Company, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and a letter of credit issuer, and the other lenders and letter of credit issuers party thereto (the “Existing Credit Agreement”). In connection with the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement on the Closing Date, the Company’s outstanding letters of credit under the Existing Credit Agreement were transferred to be under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Future draws under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Facility will be subject to various conditions, including the absence of defaults under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

The interest rates per annum applicable to the revolving credit facility under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (other than in respect of swing line loans), and the term loan will be Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) plus between 1.000% to 1.750%, depending on the Company’s debt rating by either Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”), or, at the option of the Company, the Base Rate (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) plus between 0.000% to 0.750% depending on the Company’s debt rating by either Moody’s or S&P. As of the Closing Date, the initial interest rate on the revolving credit facility under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was the Term SOFR plus 1.375% in the case of Term SOFR loans and the Base Rate plus 0.375% in the case of Base Rate loans, and the initial interest rate on the term loan facility under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was Term SOFR plus 1.375% in the case of Term SOFR loans and the Base Rate plus 0.375% in the case of Base Rate loans. Beginning on the Closing Date, a commitment fee will be payable quarterly in arrears on the daily unused portions of the revolving facility under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The commitment fee will be between 0.080% and 0.250% of unused amounts under the revolving credit facility depending on the Company’s debt rating by either Moody’s or S&P.

The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default, including maintenance of consolidated net leverage ratios and interest coverage. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders have the right to declare all outstanding loans immediately due and payable.

The foregoing description of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
