Immediate Release

Columbus McKinnon Announces Repricing of $1,453 million Term Loan B and $500 million Revolving Credit Facility

CHARLOTTE, NC, September 22, 2026 - Columbus McKinnon Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCO) (“CMCO” or the “Company”), a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of intelligent motion solutions for material handling, today announced that on September 21, 2026 it completed an opportunistic repricing of its existing $1,453 million Term Loan B due February 3, 2033 (the “Term Loan B”) and $500 million Revolving Credit Facility (the “Revolver”) through an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its existing credit agreement dated as of February 3, 2026 (as amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

The Amendment reduced the applicable interest rate margin on both the Revolver and the Term Loan B by 50 basis points, resulting in an interest rate for the Term Loan B of SOFR plus 3.00% per annum. All other material provisions under the Amended Credit Agreement, including the maturity dates, remain unchanged.

“I am very pleased with the successful debt repricing transaction, which is expected to reduce annual cash interest expense by at least $7.3 million,” said John Linker, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Enabled by our integration progress and strong financial performance in early fiscal 2027, this repricing accelerates CMCO’s value creation strategy by improving our ability to pay down debt, which continues to be our priority for capital allocation, and reflects increased confidence in cost synergy realization.”
