Pentair Completes $700 Million Refinancing
Pentair announced that it has completed two new financing arrangements totaling $700 million effective today. The new arrangements comprise a $200 million private placement of senior notes with a 10-year maturity, and a $500 million revolving credit facility with maturity in three years.
The new financings replace two existing credit facilities totaling $632 million.
"These financing arrangements strengthen our financial position by lengthening the maturities of our long-term debt and downsizing our revolving credit facilities," said David D. Harrison, Pentair executive vice president and chief financial officer. "These arrangements reinforce our investment-grade profile, and will be adequate to meet Pentair's financing needs for the foreseeable future."
