Adient cuts term loan interest margin to 2.00% SOFR on $624 million balance
On January 15, 2026, Adient and its subsidiaries signed Amendment No. 5 to the Term Loan Credit Agreement dated May 6, 2019, with Bank of America, N.A. as agent. The amendment lowers the interest rate margin to 2.00% for Term SOFR loans and 1.00% for Base Rate loans, while the $624 million outstanding balance is unchanged. Because the lower margin reduces the cost of this borrowing, the change matters to shareholders, though the filing does not quantify the savings.

- Amendment effective date: January 15, 2026; Bank of America, N.A. is administrative and collateral agent
- Interest rate margin reduced to 2.00% for Term SOFR loans and 1.00% for Base Rate loans
- Total loans outstanding of $624 million remained unchanged
- Obligations remain guaranteed on a secured basis by Adient plc and certain material wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries
