BREAKING: $J secures financing to close PA Consulting deal — a $1.5B revolver (matures 3/16/2031) plus $1.2B in term loans drawn ($700M 3‑yr, $500M 5‑yr); also drew ~$56M from revolver. Revolver replaces prior facility. 🚨 $J #BREAKING #M&A #CreditMarkets #PAConsulting
ALERT: What this means — Jacobs is funding the PA acquisition mainly with debt, boosting leverage risk. Must maintain Consolidated Leverage ≤3.50x (temporary bump to 4.00x post‑acquisition). Could pressure credit metrics & interest expense. ⚠️ $J #Leverage #Debt #Mergers
Confirmed: Revolver $1.5B (expandable +$750M), multicurrency borrowings, margins tied to debt rating/consolidated leverage (SOFR/SONIA/etc.; SOFR spread ~0.875%–1.625% range), unused fee 0.09–0.225%. Term maturities 2029 & 2031. 🔎 $J #CorporateFinance #BankLoans
Additional: JEGI borrowed $545M to retire the old revolver; Jacobs & JEGI guarantees in place (release conditions tied to JEGI notes ≤ $300M and other guarantee releases). If PA deal fails, proceeds revert to general corporate uses/repayment. 🧾 $J #FinTwit #M&A
