MetLife stock: Credit agreement provides 4 billion dollars

MetLife and its wholly owned subsidiary MetLife Funding amended their credit agreement on November 9, according to the StockTitan reproduction of the company's Form 8-K filing. The arrangement provides up to 4 billion dollars of committed capacity for borrowings or letters of credit.

The available amount can rise to 5.5 billion dollars if no event of default has occurred and remains uncured. MetLife said the facilities may be used for general corporate purposes. The agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, with amounts subject to acceleration after an uncured or unwaived event of default.

Funding terms set through 2032

Borrowings under the amended agreement must be repaid by November 7, 2031. Letters of credit outstanding on that date may remain in place until no later than November 7, 2032. The filing identifies Bank of America as administrative agent and lists Wells Fargo and JPMorgan Chase among the syndication agents.

MetLife stock traded at 93.13 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 11:12 CET on Saturday, November 14.

Investors will focus on how MetLife uses the expanded liquidity framework alongside its insurance operations, capital management and other funding needs. The credit agreement sets borrowing capacity, but it does not by itself indicate that the full facility has been drawn.
