Globalization
Positions us to ser ve our customers consistently,
ever ywhere in the world.
While we have no significant maturities of long-term debt until 2025, our ability to pay interest on our debt and to
satisfy our other debt obligations depends in part upon our future financial and operating performance and that of
our subsidiaries, and upon our ability to renew or refinance borrowings.
We currently hold cross currency swaps with a combined notional amount of €1,467.2 million, maturing in May 2025
and €900.0 million maturing in August 2027.
