Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | Debt Credit Facility In December 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a syndicate of lenders (the "2018 Credit Agreement") which provided for a $750.0 million senior unsecured five-year revolving credit facility. The 2018 Credit Agreement, which was to mature in December 2023, included an option for the Company to elect to increase the commitments under the Credit Facility and/or to enter into one or more tranches of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $250.0 million, subject to the consent of the lenders providing the additional commitments or term loans, as applicable, and certain other conditions. In December 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with a syndicate of lenders (the "2022 Credit Agreement") which provides for a $750.0 million senior unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the "2022 Credit Facility") and replaces the 2018 Credit Agreement, which was contemporaneously terminated. The 2022 Credit Agreement includes an option for the Company to elect to increase the commitments under the 2022 Credit Facility and/or to enter into one or more tranches of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million, subject to the consent of the lenders providing the additional commitments or term loans, as applicable, and certain other conditions. The 2022 Credit Agreement also provides a $50.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. As set forth in the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company has the option to amend the 2022 Credit Agreement to establish environmental, social, and governance targets which will be used to adjust pricing under the 2022 Credit Facility, subject to parameters to be provided in the 2022 Credit Agreement. Proceeds of the loans under the 2022 Credit Facility may be used to finance working capital needs, and for general corporate or other lawful purposes, of Regeneron and its subsidiaries. Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. has guaranteed all obligations under the 2022 Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Agreement includes an option for the Company to elect to extend the maturity date of the 2022 Credit Facility beyond December 2027, subject to the consent of the extending lenders and certain other conditions. Amounts borrowed under the 2022 Credit Facility may be prepaid, and the commitments under the 2022 Credit Facility may be terminated, at any time without premium or penalty. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under the 2022 Credit Facility as of December 31, 2022. The 2022 Credit Agreement contains operating covenants and a maximum total leverage ratio financial covenant. The Company was in compliance with all covenants of the 2022 Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2022. Senior Notes In August 2020, the Company issued and sold $1.250 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2030 and $750 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2050 (collectively, the "Notes"). The underwriting discounts and offering expenses are being amortized as additional interest expense over the period from issuance through maturity. Long-term debt in connection with the Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering expenses, consists of the following:
| As of December 31,
(In millions) | 2022 |  | 2021
1.750% Senior Notes due September 2030 | $ | 1,241.0 |  |  | $ | 1,239.9 |
2.800% Senior Notes due September 2050 | 740.4 |  |  | 740.1 |
| $ | 1,981.4 |  |  | $ | 1,980.0 |
Interest on each series of Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year until their respective maturity dates. Interest expense related to the Notes was $44.3 million, $44.4 million, and $17.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. The Notes may be redeemed at the Company’s option at any time at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, and, until a specified period before maturity, a specified make-whole amount. The Notes contain a change-of-control provision that, under certain circumstances, may require the Company to offer to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Notes also contain certain limitations on the Company’s ability to incur liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions, as well as customary events of default.
