The latest announcement is out from ESAB Corporation ( (ESAB) ).
On March 26, 2026, ESAB Corporation issued $1.0 billion of 5.625% senior unsecured notes due April 1, 2031, guaranteed by certain U.S. subsidiaries and carrying semi-annual interest payments beginning October 1, 2026. The notes feature change-of-control repurchase rights, various redemption options, and covenants restricting additional debt, liens and major corporate transactions, with customary events of default that allow acceleration of the securities.

The financing structure underscores ESAB’s commitment to closing the Eddyfi acquisition while preserving flexibility through optional redemptions and protective covenants designed to balance leverage, shareholder dilution and creditor protections.
