Credit Facilities, Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt | ﻿ Note 1 3. Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt Revolving credit facility Woodward maintains a $1,000,000 revolving credit facility established under a revolving credit agreement among Woodward, a syndicate of lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for the option to increase available borrowings to up to $1,200,000, subject to lenders’ participation. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement can be made by Woodward and certain of its foreign subsidiaries in U.S dollars or in foreign currencies other than the U.S. dollar and generally bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.85% to 1.65%. The Revolving Credit Agreement matures in April 2020. Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, there were $41,930 in principal amount of borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2018, at an effective interest rate of 3.28%, and $32,600 in principal amount of borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2017, at an ef fective interest rate of 2.29%. As of March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2017, all of the borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement were classified as short-term based on Woodward’s intent and ability to pay this amount in the next twelve months. Short-term borrowings Woodward has other foreign lines of credit and foreign overdraft facilities at various financial institutions, which are generally reviewed annually for renewal and are subject to the usual terms and conditions applied by the financial institutions. Pursuant to the terms of the related facility agreements, Woodward’s foreign performance guarantee facilities are limited in use to providing performance guarantees to third parties. There were no borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2017 on Woodward’s foreign lines of credit and foreign overdraft facilities. Long-term debt ﻿
