IQVIA Announces Upsizing of its Allocation of New Term B Loans

IQVIA Holdings Inc. (NYSE:IQV) (the “Company”) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, IQVIA Inc. (the “Borrower”), allocated a new term B loan due 2031 of approximately $1,500 million (the “New Term Loan B”), which was upsized due to lender demand.

The proceeds from the New Term Loan B, together with the proceeds from the Borrower’s offering of $1,250 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2029 (the “Notes”), are expected to be used to repay the outstanding Euro-denominated term B loan (“TLB”) due in March 2024, the U.S.-denominated TLB due in January 2025 and the U.S.-denominated TLB due in June 2025 under the Borrower’s senior secured credit facilities, and to pay fees and expenses related to the Borrower’s Notes offering and the Borrower’s credit agreement amendment in respect of the New Term Loan B.

In connection with the allocation of the New Term Loan B, the Company entered into a cross-currency swap agreement which will effectively convert the New Term Loan B, upon the closing of such facility, into a euro-denominated borrowing at prevailing euro interest rates to hedge exposure to USD-denominated indebtedness created by the New Term Loan B. The effective net borrowing rate to the Company will be 4.9015%, inclusive of the yield on the New Term Loan B and the beneficial impact of the cross-currency swap.
