Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 4, 2026, American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment No. 2 (the “Amendment”), between the Company, American Eagle Outfitters Canada Corporation, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the other parties thereto, to amend that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2022 (as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1, dated as of May 22, 2024, the “ABL Credit Agreement”). The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a $700 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”).

 

The principal changes made by the Amendment were to (i) extend the maturity date of the ABL Credit Facility from June 24, 2027, to June 4, 2031, and (ii) simplify the interest rate calculation by removing the SOFR Adjustment and Term CORRA Adjustment (as such terms are defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) and increasing the applicable margin. Pursuant to the Amendment, interest accrues on borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, at the election of the Company, at an adjusted SOFR rate of SOFR plus an applicable margin (ranging from 1.250% to 1.500%) or an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin (ranging from 0.250% to 0.500%), with each such applicable margin being based on average borrowing availability under the ABL Credit Facility.

 

The above description of the Amendment is a summary and is not complete. A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The above summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Amendment filed as an exhibit hereto.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
