On February 10, 2026, Emerson Electric Co. (the "Company") entered into a $2 billion 364-Day Credit Agreement (the “364-Day Credit Facility”), dated as of February 10, 2026, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as agent, Bank of America, N.A., Citibank, N.A., and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as syndication agents, and the lenders named therein. The 364-Day Credit Facility expires on February 9, 2027. There are no outstanding loans or letters of credit under the 364 Day Credit Facility. The Company has not incurred any borrowings under this or prior similar facilities, and has no current intention to do so. The 364-Day Credit Facility supports general corporate purposes, including as a liquidity back-up for the Company’s commercial paper borrowings. The facility replaces the Company’s $3 billion 364-Day Credit Agreement entered into on February 11, 2025, which expired by its terms.
The 364-Day Credit Facility is unsecured and may be accessed under various interest rate alternatives, at the Company’s option. The Company may from time to time designate any of its eligible subsidiaries as subsidiary borrowers under the 364-Day Credit Facility. The Company has unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed the obligations of each of its subsidiaries in the event a subsidiary is named a borrower under the 364-Day Credit Facility. Loans are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company must pay facility fees on the aggregate amounts available under the 364-Day Credit Facility, as specified in the credit agreement. The 364-Day Credit Facility contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and events of default.
In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the lenders and their respective affiliates engage in, and may in the future engage in, commercial banking and/or investment banking transactions and/or advisory services with the Company and its affiliates.
The foregoing summary of the 364-Day Credit Facility is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual credit agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
