Neutral Impact 3 of 5 financing Written later

PHINIA issued $525 million of 6.75% senior secured notes due 2029, upsized from $425 million, and proceeds will repay term loan B and revolving credit borrowings. The company also amended its credit agreement, raising the total net leverage covenant from 3.00:1.00 to 3.25:1.00 and removing the mandatory prepayment tied to operating cash flow, which adds debt to the balance sheet but refinances existing borrowings.
