Summary
Summary of the 8-K filed April 1, 2026. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
Roper Technologies, Inc. entered into a new five-year unsecured credit facility dated March 30, 2026 (the "Credit Agreement"), which replaces its existing $3.50 billiona unsecured credit facility dated July 21, 2022.
The new facility comprises a five-year $3.50 billion revolving credit facility, with up to $150.0 millionb available for letters of credit, of which $60.0 million shall be committed. The Company may also, subject to specified conditions, request additional term loans or revolving credit commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.00 billion. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. serves as administrative agent, with Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as syndication agents.
The facility's pricing is tied to Roper's senior unsecured long-term debt rating. Based on the current rating, term SOFR loans would bear a spread of 0.920%c, ABR loans a spread of 0.000%, letters of credit a quarterly fee of 0.920% per annum plus a 0.125% fronting fee, and the facility fee would accrue at 0.080% per annum. The Credit Agreement requires a Total Debt to Total Capital Ratio of 0.65 to 1.00 or less, and borrowings are prepayable at any time without premium or penalty.
Roper may add foreign subsidiaries as borrowers, guaranteeing their obligations, but the Company's own obligations are not guaranteed by its subsidiaries. In connection with entering the new facility, Roper terminated its prior credit agreement, under which $2.0 billiond of principal was outstanding and approximately $6.2 million of letters of credit were outstanding as of the termination date. The filing is primarily a refinancing and amendment of the Company's core liquidity backstop, with the terms of the new agreement set out in Exhibit 10.1.
