Debt Disclosure [Abstract]  
Debt and Derivative Instruments DEBT AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Short-Term Debt
We have a commercial paper program that allows for borrowings up to $7.0 billion and is supported by $7.0 billion of back-up credit facilities. At the beginning of fiscal 2025, these backup credit facilities consisted of a five-year $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2027, a 364-day $2.0 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2025, and a 364-day $1.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2025. On May 6, 2025, we terminated all three back-up credit facility agreements and simultaneously entered into a new five-year $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2030 and a new 364-day $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2026.
All of our short-term borrowings during the first three months of fiscal 2025 were under our commercial paper program, and the maximum amount outstanding at any time was $1.1 billion. At May 4, 2025, we had $38 million of outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program with a weighted average interest rate of 2.9% and no outstanding borrowings under our back-up credit facilities. At February 2, 2025, we had $316 million of outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program with a weighted-average interest rate of 4.4% and no outstanding borrowings under our back-up credit facilities.
Long-Term Debt
We did not have any new issuances of senior notes during the first three months of fiscal 2025. In April 2025, we repaid our $500 million 2.70% and $500 million 5.125% senior notes at maturity.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
We use derivative instruments as part of our normal business operations in the management of our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on certain debt. Our objective in managing these exposures is to decrease the volatility of cash flows affected by changes in the underlying rates and to minimize the risk of changes in the fair value of certain senior notes.
We had outstanding interest rate swap agreements with combined notional amounts of $5.4 billion at both May 4, 2025 and February 2, 2025. These agreements are accounted for as fair value hedges that swap fixed for variable rate interest to hedge changes in the fair values of certain senior notes. At May 4, 2025 and February 2, 2025, the fair values of these agreements totaled $661 million and $795 million, respectively, all of which are recognized in other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. All of our interest rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges meet the shortcut method requirements under GAAP. Accordingly, the changes in the fair values of these agreements offset the changes in the fair value of the hedged long-term debt. At May 4, 2025 and February 2, 2025, the carrying amount of our long-term debt, excluding current installments, subject to fair value hedges was $14.5 billion and $14.3 billion, respectively.
During the three months ended May 4, 2025, there was no new material hedging activity or material change to any other hedging arrangement disclosed in our 2024 Form 10-K, and all related activity was immaterial for the periods presented within this report.
Collateral. We generally enter into master netting arrangements, which are designed to reduce credit risk by permitting net settlement of transactions with the same counterparty. To further limit our credit risk, we enter into collateral security arrangements that provide for collateral to be received or posted when the net fair value of certain derivative instruments exceeds or falls below contractually established thresholds. The cash collateral posted by the Company related to derivative instruments under our collateral security arrangements was $532 million and $668 million as of May 4, 2025 and February 2, 2025, respectively, which was recorded in other current assets on our consolidated balance sheets. We did not hold any cash collateral as of May 4, 2025 or February 2, 2025.
