PHILADELPHIA, May 19, 2026 – FMC Corporation (NYSE: FMC) (“FMC” or the “Company”), a leading global agricultural sciences company, today announced that it intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2031 (the “Notes”), in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund the repurchase or redemption of the Company’s outstanding 3.200% Senior Notes due October 1, 2026, to repay outstanding borrowings under the Company’s Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 17, 2022, and for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of other debt.
The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by various subsidiaries of the Company organized under the laws of the United States, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Canada and Singapore (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Notes and related note guarantees will be secured by first-priority liens on (i) substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors organized under the laws of the United States, Canada and Switzerland, other than certain excluded property and (ii) all the equity interests held by the Subsidiary Guarantors organized under the laws of Singapore and the Netherlands in their respective subsidiaries.
The offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether, when or on what terms the offering may be completed.
Neither the Notes nor the guarantees have been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and the Notes and the guarantees may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or guarantees, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes or guarantees in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
