Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Long-Term Debt | Long-Term Debt Our multi-currency credit facility was amended in July 2025 and matures on July 24, 2030. It provides us the ability, from time to time, subject to certain restrictive covenants and customary conditions, to borrow, repay, and re-borrow up to $1,000.0 (previous to the amendment was $1,200.0). At December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants. Capitalized terms used in this section but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement. Our credit facility contains restrictive covenants, which include: (a) a Leverage Ratio requiring us to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, (i) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness minus the lesser of: (A) Unrestricted Cash, or (B) $750.0 to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA for the four consecutive trailing quarters most recently ended on or prior to such date, such ratio not being greater than 3.50 to 1.00; provided however, subject to certain limitations, if we make a Material Acquisition, at our election, the maximum Leverage Ratio shall be 4.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter during which such Material Acquisition is consummated and the next three consecutive fiscal quarters; (b) a limitation of the amount of total secured obligations to 15% of our total consolidated assets; and (c) a limitation on our ability to sell, lease, transfer, or dispose of all or substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, taken as a whole (other than accounts receivable sold in a Permitted Securitization Transaction, products sold in the ordinary course of business and our ability to sell, lease, transfer, or dispose of any of our assets or the assets of one of our subsidiaries to us or one of our subsidiaries, as applicable) at any given point in time. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we repaid $300.0 of 3.80% Senior Notes. Long-term debt, interest rates, and due dates at December 31 are as follows:

1 Senior notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. For each of the senior notes: (i) interest is paid semi-annually in arrears; (ii) principal is due at maturity with no sinking fund; and (iii) we may, at our option, at any time, redeem all or a portion of any of the debt at a make-whole redemption price equal to the greater of: (a) 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed; and (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon to the "par call date," discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a specified discount rate, determined by the terms of each respective note. The senior notes may also be redeemed by us within 90 days of maturity (or within 180 days of maturity for the notes maturing in 2051) at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, and we are required to offer to purchase such notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if we experience a Change of Control Repurchase Event, as defined in the Senior Notes. Also, each respective senior note contains restrictive covenants, including a limitation on secured debt of 15% of our consolidated assets, a limitation on sale and leaseback transactions, and a limitation on certain consolidations, mergers, and sales of assets. 2 The weighted average interest rate for the net commercial paper activity during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 5.0% and 5.6%, respectively. We view the notes as a source of long-term funds and have classified the borrowings under the commercial paper program as long-term borrowings on our balance sheet. We have the intent to roll over such obligations on a long-term basis and have the ability to refinance these borrowings on a long-term basis, as evidenced by our $1,000.0 revolving credit facility maturing in 2030 discussed above. Maturities are as follows:
2026 | $ | 1.5 |
2027 | 501.6 |
2028 | .9 |
2029 | 498.0 |
2030 | 2.0 |
Thereafter | 493.7 |
| $ | 1,497.7 |
Details of our commercial paper program at December 31 are presented in the table below:
| 2025 |  | 2024
Total authorized program | $ | 1,000.0 |  |  | $ | 1,200.0 |
Commercial paper outstanding (classified as long-term debt) | — |  |  | 368.0 |
Letters of credit issued under the credit agreement | — |  |  | — |
Amount limited by restrictive covenants of credit facility | 291.0 |  |  | 388.8 |
Total program available | $ | 709.0 |  |  | $ | 443.2 |
At December 31, 2025, subject to restrictive covenants, we could raise cash by issuing commercial paper through a program that is backed by a $1,000.0 revolving credit facility with a syndicate of 10 lenders. The credit facility allows us to issue total letters of credit up to $125.0. When we issue letters of credit in this manner, our capacity under the revolving facility, and consequently, our ability to issue commercial paper, is reduced by a corresponding amount. We had no outstanding letters of credit under the facility at year end for the periods presented, but we had issued $93.2 and $61.4 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, of stand-by letters of credit under other bank agreements to take advantage of better pricing. Our borrowing capacity may be limited by covenants to our credit facility. At December 31, 2025, our borrowing capacity under the credit facility was $709.0. Generally, we may elect one of five types of borrowing under the revolving credit facility, which determines the rate of interest to be paid on the outstanding principal balance. The interest rate would typically be commensurate with the currency borrowed and the term of the borrowing, as well as either (i) a competitive variable or fixed rate or (ii) various published rates plus a pre-defined spread. We are required periodically to pay accrued interest on any outstanding principal balance under the revolving credit facility at different time intervals based upon the elected interest rate and the elected interest period. Any outstanding principal under this facility will be due upon the maturity date. We may also terminate or reduce the lending commitments under this facility, in whole or in part, upon three business days’ notice. No amounts were outstanding under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
