Neutral Impact 3 of 5 financing Written later

Dover entered into a $1.5 billion five-year unsecured revolving credit facility on April 2, 2026, replacing its existing $1 billion five-year credit facility and letting its 364-day facility expire. The new facility is mainly backup liquidity for the company's commercial paper program and is due April 2, 2031, so it adds $500 million of committed borrowing capacity compared with the facility it replaced.
