The new agreement matures on April 15, 2030, and is subject to two, one-year extension options, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday. It also gives the company the option to establish incremental commitments of up to $500 million in the aggregate if certain conditions are met.
Tyson is required to maintain a minimum interest expense coverage ratio of at least 3.50 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter.
The previous pact that was entered into in September 2021, and provided for aggregate commitments of up to $2.25 billion.
The meat producer is continuing to work with J.P. Morgan Chase as its bank for the agreement.
