Rockwell Automation, Inc. entered into a new $1,500,000,000 five-year unsecured revolving credit agreement with a bank syndicate led by Bank of America as administrative agent. The company can increase total commitments by up to an additional $750,000,000 and has two options to request one-year extensions of the maturity date, subject to lender consent and other conditions.

This new facility replaces Rockwell’s prior $1,500,000,000 five-year credit agreement from June 2022, which was terminated early with no early termination penalties. Borrowings will bear interest based on a base rate or adjusted term SOFR plus a margin that varies with the company’s senior unsecured credit ratings. The agreement includes customary covenants and events of default, including a requirement that the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense for any four-quarter period remain at least 3.00 to 1.00, but it does not restrict the company’s ability to pay dividends. Proceeds of borrowings are intended for general corporate purposes.
