MasTec, Inc. entered a new senior unsecured delayed draw term loan agreement providing $700 million in commitments, split between a three-year $400 million tranche and a four-year $300 million tranche, to help finance a planned acquisition.

The company also increased revolving borrowing commitments under its existing credit facility by $350 million to $2,250 million, adding liquidity.

The company also appointed Manuel Benito Miranda as a new Class II director and added him to the Compensation Committee.

Insights

MasTec adds significant committed financing to support a large strategic acquisition.

MasTec secured a new senior unsecured delayed draw term loan totaling $700 million, with three- and four-year tranches, to fund part of the Superior Group acquisition and related costs. This is alongside a $350 million increase in its revolving credit facility to $2,250 million.

The term loan is covenant-based, requiring a Consolidated Leverage Ratio not above 3.50:1.00, with a potential temporary step-up to 4.00:1.00 after larger acquisitions. Interest margins float over Term SOFR or a Base Rate, tied to leverage and debt ratings.

The Superior Group purchase includes an estimated 1,195,721 new MasTec shares valued near $475,000,000, equal to about 1.5% of the company’s common stock after issuance. Closing is expected in the third quarter of 2026, subject to customary conditions, including antitrust review, so final timing and integration outcomes will emerge in subsequent disclosures.

senior unsecured delayed draw term loan financial
"entered into a new senior unsecured delayed draw term loan agreement"
Consolidated Leverage Ratio financial
"requires the Company to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio of not more than 3.50:1.00"
A consolidated leverage ratio measures a business group's total debt compared with its ability to pay, by using combined figures for the parent company and its subsidiaries. Think of it like comparing the total mortgage across all properties you own to your overall income or net worth; investors use it to judge how risky the company’s capital structure is and how vulnerable it may be to rising interest rates or income drops.
Acquisition Adjustment financial
"the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio may be temporarily increased to up to 4.00:1.00 ... (the “Acquisition Adjustment”)."
Term SOFR financial
"either (a) Term SOFR, as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement, plus a margin"
Term SOFR is a benchmark interest rate that reflects the cost of borrowing money over a specific period, based on actual transactions in the financial markets. It is used by lenders and borrowers to set the interest rates on loans and financial contracts, helping to ensure rates are fair and transparent. For investors, understanding term SOFR helps gauge borrowing costs and the overall direction of interest rates in the economy.
Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act regulatory
"in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D"
A legal exemption that allows a company to sell securities directly to a limited group of buyers without registering the offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Think of it like a private sale among known parties rather than a public auction: it can speed fundraising and reduce disclosure requirements, but it also means less public information, lower liquidity and resale restrictions—factors investors should consider when weighing risk and exit options.
accredited investor regulatory
"Each Recipient Holder has represented that such Recipient Holder is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined"
An accredited investor is an individual or entity that meets certain financial criteria, such as having a high income or significant net worth, allowing them to invest in private or less regulated investment opportunities. This status matters because it grants access to investments that are often riskier or less available to the general public, reflecting a higher level of financial knowledge or resources.

FAQ

What new financing did MasTec (MTZ) secure in this 8-K?

MasTec entered a new senior unsecured delayed draw term loan agreement totaling $700 million. It includes a $400 million three-year tranche and a $300 million four-year tranche, primarily to help finance the Superior Group acquisition and related fees and expenses.

How did MasTec (MTZ) change its existing credit facility?

MasTec amended its existing credit facility to increase U.S. dollar revolving borrowing commitments by $350 million, bringing total commitments to $2,250 million. All other terms and conditions of the facility remain unchanged under the amendment described in the filing.

What are the key leverage covenants in MasTec’s new term loan?

MasTec must maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio not exceeding 3.50:1.00 each quarter. After certain permitted acquisitions over $200 million, the maximum ratio may temporarily increase to up to 4.00:1.00 for that quarter and the following four fiscal quarters under the Acquisition Adjustment.

What are the terms of MasTec’s planned acquisition of the Superior Group?

MasTec agreed to acquire Electrical Specialists, Inc., d/b/a the Superior Group, which will become a wholly owned subsidiary. As partial consideration, MasTec expects to issue about 1,195,721 shares valued near $475,000,000, with closing contemplated in the third quarter of 2026 subject to customary conditions.

How dilutive are the MasTec (MTZ) consideration shares for the Superior Group deal?

The company anticipates issuing approximately 1,195,721 consideration shares of common stock. Based on current estimates, this represents about 1.5% of MasTec’s outstanding common stock after the issuance, so the new shares modestly expand the equity base tied to the acquisition.

Under what exemption will MasTec issue the Superior Group consideration shares?

MasTec will issue the consideration shares without Securities Act registration, relying on Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D. Each recipient holder represented being an accredited investor, and the shares will carry a restrictive legend limiting transfers absent registration or an appropriate legal opinion.

What board changes did MasTec (MTZ) disclose in this filing?

MasTec’s board appointed Manuel Benito Miranda as a Class II director, increasing board size from eight to nine members. He will serve until the 2027 annual meeting, join the Compensation Committee, and receive standard non‑employee director compensation described in MasTec’s 2026 proxy statement.

Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

New Term Loan Agreement

On July 7, 2026, MasTec, Inc. (the “Company”) and MasTec North America, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company (“MasTec North America”), entered into a new senior unsecured delayed draw term loan agreement (the “New Term Loan Agreement”) by and among the Company and MasTec North America, as borrowers, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the other lenders party thereto, which provides for $700 million in delayed draw term loan commitments (the “Term Loan Commitments”), composed of $400 million of three-year commitments (the “Three-Year Tranche”) and $300 million of four-year commitments (the “Four-Year Tranche”). Borrowings under the Term Loan Commitments are to be used to finance a portion of the consideration for the Acquisition (as defined below) and fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith and related transactions. The Term Loan Commitments will be automatically and permanently terminated if the closing date (the “Closing Date”) of the Acquisition does not occur.

The Three-Year Tranche will mature on the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date, and the Four-Year Tranche will mature on the four-year anniversary of the Closing Date. Loans under the Three-Year Tranche are not subject to amortization. Loans under the Four-Year Tranche are subject to amortization in quarterly principal installments (subject to the application of certain prepayments in accordance with the terms of the New Term Loan Agreement) commencing with the first full fiscal quarter ending after the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, at the rate of 5% per annum, increasing to 10% per annum on the first full fiscal quarter ending after the third-year anniversary of the Closing Date until the maturity date of the Four-Year Tranche.

Outstanding loans under the New Term Loan Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to (i) in the case of the Three-Year Tranche either (a) Term SOFR, as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement, plus a margin of 1.000% to 1.500%, or (b) Base Rate (defined below), plus a margin of 0.000% to 0.500% and (ii) in the case of the Four-Year Tranche either (a) Term SOFR plus a margin of 1.125% to 1.625%, or (b) Base Rate, plus a margin of 0.125% to 0.625%. The Base Rate equals the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate, as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement, plus 1.00%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, and (iii) Term SOFR plus 1.00%. In each of the foregoing cases, the applicable margin is based on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio and Debt Rating, each as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement, as of the most recent fiscal quarter. The Company must also pay ticking fees to the lenders under the New Term Loan Agreement of 0.175% on any undrawn commitments under the Three-Year Tranche or the Four-Year Tranche accruing at all times from and including the date that is sixty days after the effective date of the New Term Loan Agreement.

The obligations under the New Term Loan Agreement are not guaranteed and are not secured by any assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The New Term Loan Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement, of not more than 3.50:1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter (subject to the Acquisition Adjustment described below). The New Term Loan Agreement provides that, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, funded indebtedness excludes undrawn standby performance letters of credit included in the calculation of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement). Additionally, notwithstanding the terms discussed above, subject to certain conditions, if a permitted acquisition or series of permitted acquisitions having consideration exceeding $200.0 million occurs during a fiscal quarter, the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio may be temporarily increased to up to 4.00:1.00 during such fiscal quarter and the subsequent four fiscal quarters (the “Acquisition Adjustment”). Subject to customary exceptions, the New Term Loan Agreement limits the borrowers’ ability to engage in certain activities, including but not limited to acquisitions, mergers and consolidations, debt incurrence, investments, asset sales, and lien incurrence. The New Term Loan Agreement provides for customary events of default and carries cross-default provisions with the Company’s other significant debt instruments, including the Company’s indemnity agreement with its surety provider, as well as customary remedies, including the acceleration of repayment of outstanding amounts.

The lenders and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research and principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial


activities and services. Some of the lenders and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company or its affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

The above description of the New Term Loan Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Amendment to Existing Credit Facility

On July 7, 2026, the Company amended its existing amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of June 26, 2025 (as amended the “Credit Facility”) among the Company and MasTec North America, as borrowers, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and an L/C Issuer, and the other lenders party thereto. The amendment increased the US dollar revolving borrowing commitments under the Credit Facility by $350 million to an aggregate amount of $2,250 million. The other terms and conditions of the Credit Facility remain unchanged.

The lenders and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research and principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services. Some of the lenders and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company or its affiliates.

On July 7, 2026, the Company agreed to acquire Electrical Specialists, Inc., d/b/a the Superior Group (the Superior Group”), pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) among the Company, Superior Group, Stewshi Co., Inc., as the seller, and the shareholders and shareholder representative named therein.

The Superior Group is a premier full-service electrical contractor focused on critical infrastructure. The Superior Group is a recognized leader in building data center infrastructure and also serves a diverse set of end markets including healthcare, entertainment and industrial.

As partial consideration for the Acquisition, the Company will issue shares (the “Consideration Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.10 per share, to the holders (the “Recipient Holders”) of the Seller’s equity securities. Based on current estimates of the purchase price, the Company anticipates that it will issue approximately 1,195,721 Consideration Shares, having a value of approximately $475,000,000 based on the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of a share of Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the five trading days ended July 6, 2026, and representing approximately 1.5% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock after giving effect to the issuance thereof. The precise amount of Consideration Shares will be subject to adjustment as a result of customary purchase price adjustments at the time of consummation of the Acquisition. It is currently contemplated that the Acquisition will be completed in the third quarter of 2026 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including, termination of antitrust review.

The sale and issuance of the Consideration Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and


Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. Each Recipient Holder has represented that such Recipient Holder is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act. The Consideration Shares will be issued subject to a restrictive legend advising that the Consideration Shares may not be transferred or sold except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or pursuant to an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required.
