(1) Maturities are presented on a calendar year basis. Maturities of existing long-term obligations and other short-term borrowings for fiscal 2026 through 2030 and thereafter are as follows: $553 million, $1.9 billion, $834 million, $670 million, $764 million, and $3.9 billion. Long-Term Debt All the notes represent unsecured obligations of Cardinal Health, Inc. and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The 7.0% Debentures represent unsecured obligations of Allegiance Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary), which Cardinal Health, Inc. has guaranteed. None of these obligations are subject to a sinking fund and the Allegiance obligations are not redeemable prior to maturity. Interest is paid pursuant to the terms of the obligations. These notes are effectively subordinated to the liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables of $34.7 billion and $31.8 billion at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During fiscal 2025, we issued additional debt, with the aggregate principal amount of $2.9 billion, to fund a portion of the consideration payable in connection with the GIA and ADS acquisitions and for general purposes. The notes issued are $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.7% Notes that mature on November 15, 2026, $750 million aggregate principal amount of 5.0% Notes that mature on November 15, 2029, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.35% Notes that mature on November 15, 2034, and $650 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Notes that mature on November 15, 2054. The proceeds of the notes issued, net of discounts, premiums, and debt issuance costs, were $2.9 billion. During fiscal 2025, we repaid the full principal of $400 million of the 3.5% Notes due 2024 at maturity with proceeds from the debt issuance in fiscal 2024, $200 million of which were invested in short-term time deposits and classified as prepaid expenses and other in our consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2024. All short-term time deposits related to the debt issuance in fiscal 2024 have matured. During fiscal 2024, we issued additional debt with the aggregate principal amount of $1.15 billion to fund the repayment of all of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 3.5% Notes due 2024 and 3.079% Notes due 2024, at their respective maturities, and for general corporate purposes. During fiscal 2024, we repaid the full principal of $750 million of the 3.079% Notes due 2024 at maturity. The notes issued are $650 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Notes that mature on February 15, 2029 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.45% Notes that mature on February 15, 2034. The proceeds of the notes issued, net of discounts, premiums, and debt issuance costs were $1.14 billion. If we undergo a change of control, as defined in the notes, and if the notes receive specified ratings below investment grade by each of Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Services and Fitch Ratings, any holder of the notes, excluding the debentures, can require with respect to the notes owned by such holder, or we can offer, to repurchase the notes at 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Other Financing Arrangements In addition to cash and equivalents and operating cash flow, other sources of liquidity include a $3.0 billion commercial paper program backed by a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility that expires in February 2028 and a $1.0 billion 364-Day revolving credit facility that expires in October 2025. We also have a $1.0 billion committed receivables sales facility. On December 5, 2024, we entered into a term loan credit agreement that, among other things, provides commitments for a term loan facility in an aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion. On April 1, 2025, we closed on our acquisition of ADS and borrowed $800 million under this term loan facility. The loan provided under this term loan credit agreement will mature in April 2028 and allows for prepayment, which may be accelerated pursuant to certain conditions specified in the credit agreement. Interest rates on borrowings will be based on prevailing interest rates, benchmarked based on Term SOFR and subject to our credit ratings. In November 2024, we also obtained a commitment letter from a financial institution for a $2.9 billion unsecured bridge term loan facility that could have been used to complete the acquisition of GIA. We incurred fees related to the facility, which are included in interest expense, net. The unsecured bridge term loan facility was never entered into and we terminated the commitment letter on November 22, 2024. In February 2023, we extended our $2.0 billion revolving credit facility through February 25, 2028. In September 2022, we renewed our committed receivables sales facility program through Cardinal Health Funding, LLC (“CHF”) through September 30, 2025. In September 2023, Cardinal Health 23 Funding, LLC ("CH-23 Funding") was added as a seller under our committed receivables sales facility. Each of CHF and CH-23 Funding was organized for the sole purpose of buying receivables and selling undivided interests in those receivables to third-party purchasers. Although consolidated with Cardinal Health, Inc. in accordance with GAAP, each of CHF and CH-23 Funding is a separate legal entity from Cardinal Health, Inc. and from our respective subsidiary that sells receivables to CHF or CH-23 Funding, as applicable. Each of CHF and CH-23 Funding is designed to be a special purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity whose assets are available solely to satisfy the claims of its respective creditors. Our revolving credit and committed receivables sales facilities require us to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of no more than 3.75-to-1. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with this financial covenant. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, we had no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility; however, availability was reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $1 million at both June 30, 2025 and 2024. During fiscal 2025, we had a daily maximum amount outstanding under our commercial paper and committed receivables programs of $633 million. We had no amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2025 under the committed receivables sales facility program; however, availability was reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit of $31 million at both June 30, 2025 and 2024. We had no amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program as of June 30, 2025 and 2024. The $213 million and $110 million balance of other obligations at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, consisted of finance leases and short-term borrowings.
