Neutral Impact 4 of 5 financing Written later

Dorman Products issued $450 million of 6.250% senior notes due June 15, 2034, and used the proceeds to repay in full its term loans under the original credit agreement. The company also amended its credit agreement, replacing the revolving facility with a new five-year $800 million facility maturing June 16, 2031. The filing adds $450 million of long-term debt, which shareholders should weigh against the company's leverage and the new covenant limits.
