Insights

Corporate Finance Analyst

New syndicated credit agreement formalizes company borrowing framework.

The filing discloses a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated September 25, 2025 with a bank syndicate led by Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase, and BNP Paribas. Such documents typically reset covenants, maturity and pricing but this text does not include those terms.

Key dependencies are the undisclosed financial terms and covenant language; those determine near-term liquidity flexibility and refinancing risk. Watch for the full exhibit to see facility size, maturity, covenants and amortization within the next filing or exhibit release.

Credit Risk Specialist

Agreement creates a direct obligation; credit terms drive risk profile.

The filing explicitly states the creation of a direct financial obligation through the amended credit agreement, which means the company has formal borrowing commitments as of the dated agreement. No amounts, maturity or covenant tests are provided here, so the materiality to leverage and interest expense cannot be measured from this excerpt.

Investors should review the attached credit agreement exhibit for covenant thresholds and maturity dates to assess refinancing and compliance risk over the coming quarters.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 25, 2025, Itron, Inc. (the Company) entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) providing for committed credit facilities (the Credit Facilities) in the amount of $750 million. The Credit Agreement consists of a multi-currency revolving line of credit (the Revolver) in the amount of $750 million. The Revolver includes a standby letter of credit sub-facility in the amount of $300 million, and a swingline sub-facility in the amount of $50 million. The Revolver will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, as well as a facility for the issuance of letters of credit. The Credit Agreement amends and restates, in its entirety, the Company’s amended and restated credit agreement dated January 5, 2018.

Any outstanding principal under the Revolver is due at maturity on September 25, 2030. Principal amounts paid prior to the maturity date may be reborrowed prior to such date. However, that date may be advanced to April 15, 2030 if Itron does not settle or extend a sufficient portion of its outstanding convertible notes, as detailed in the Credit Agreement.

Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may elect applicable market interest rates for any outstanding revolving loans. The Company also pays an applicable margin, which is based on its total net leverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. The applicable rates per annum may be based on the following: (1) the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), plus an applicable margin or (2) the Alternate Base Rate, plus an applicable margin. The Alternate Base Rate election is equal to the greatest of three rates: (i) the prime rate, (ii) the Federal Reserve effective rate plus 0.50%, or (iii) SOFR plus 1.00%. Committed amounts not borrowed under the Revolver are subject to a commitment fee (paid quarterly in arrears). The spreads applicable to SOFR and the annual committee fee rates are, as follows:

Total Net Leverage Ratio	Spread	Commitment Fee
> 3.50x	SOFR + 175.0 bps	30.0 bps
< 3.50x	SOFR + 150.0 bps	25.0 bps
< 2.50x	SOFR + 137.5 bps	20.0 bps
< 1.50x	SOFR + 125.0 bps	17.5 bps

The Credit Agreement includes a covenant limiting the Company to a maximum total net leverage ratio of 4.0x. However, the total net leverage ratio may be increased by 0.75 for four consecutive fiscal quarters following an acquisition by the Company with consideration of at least $150 million.

The Credit Agreement requires certain of Itron’s domestic subsidiaries to guarantee the obligations of Itron under the Credit Facilities.

The above description of the Credit Facilities does not purport to be a complete statement of the rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
