International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. entered a new Term Loan Credit Agreement providing a senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility of $1,000,000,000. The facility allows a single U.S. dollar borrowing through September 25, 2026 and matures on December 31, 2027.
IFF plans to use the loan proceeds, together with cash on hand, to refinance its €800 million aggregate principal amount of 1.800% Senior Notes due September 25, 2026. Borrowings bear interest at Term SOFR plus a margin of 0.875%–1.500% per year, or at a base rate plus a 0.000%–0.500% margin, based on the company’s public debt ratings, and no commitment fee is payable.
The agreement requires mandatory prepayment of outstanding borrowings with 100% of net cash proceeds from the sale of IFF’s Food Ingredients business segment, which is expected to generate approximately $3.8 billion in net cash proceeds and to close by the end of the second quarter of 2027. The facility includes a financial covenant requiring IFF to maintain a maximum net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of 3.75 to 1.00.
INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS & FRAGRANCES INC director Paul J. Fribourg reported substantial open‑market purchases of the company’s common stock. Entities associated with him bought a total of 273,500 shares on June 1, 2026, according to the Form 4.
Continental Grain Company purchased 260,000 shares at a weighted average price of $74.278 per share, bringing its indirect holdings to 2,682,730 shares. Fribourg also bought 13,500 shares directly at a weighted average price of $74.487, increasing his direct holdings to 43,150 shares. Additional indirect holdings through foundation and trust accounts total 459 shares.
International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. is reshaping its portfolio by agreeing to sell its Food Ingredients business to Foxtrot US Bidco, an affiliate of CVC Capital Partners. The deal values the business at approximately $4.3 billion.
IFF expects to receive about $3.8 billion in net cash, subject to customary adjustments, plus a minority equity interest currently valued at roughly $200 million, representing an estimated 9.9% stake at closing. Completion depends on customary conditions, including regulatory clearances under the Hart‑Scott‑Rodino Act and other non‑U.S. regimes, as well as the accuracy of representations and performance of covenants by both parties. The agreement includes standard termination rights if closing has not occurred by May 28, 2027 or if certain conditions fail.
