Neutral Impact 3 of 5 financing Written later

Stanley Black & Decker entered a $1.25 billion 364-day revolving credit agreement on June 23, 2025, replacing a prior 364-day facility dated June 28, 2024. The company also amended its five-year credit agreement, adding a temporary interest coverage covenant relief for periods through the second quarter of 2026. No borrowings were drawn at closing, so the filing shows committed financing rather than new debt taken on.
