Long-Term Debt Financing Transactions
The following long-term debt transactions occurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2017:
PSEG
entered into an agreement for a new term loan maturing June 2019. The term loan has a balance of $700 million at an interest rate of 1 month LIBOR + 0.80% and can be terminated at any time without penalty.
PSE&G
issued $425 million of 3.00% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series L due May 2027.
Short-Term Liquidity
PSEG meets its short-term liquidity requirements, as well as those of Power, primarily with cash and through the issuance of commercial paper. PSE&G maintains its own separate commercial paper program to meet its short-term liquidity requirements. Each commercial paper program is fully back-stopped by its own separate credit facilities.
In March 2017, PSEG, Power and PSE&G amended their credit agreements, extending the expiration dates to March 2022. Concurrently, PSEG increased its existing $1 billion in credit facilities to $1.5 billion and Power decreased its existing $2.6 billion in credit facilities to $2.1 billion, which includes two new 3-year $100 million letter of credit facilities that expire in March 2020.
The commitments under the $4.2 billion credit facilities are provided by a diverse bank group. As of September 30, 2017, the total available credit capacity was $3.8 billion.
As of September 30, 2017, no single institution represented more than 8% of the total commitments in the credit facilities.
As of September 30, 2017, total credit capacity was in excess of the total anticipated maximum liquidity requirements of PSEG, PSE&G and Power.
Each of the credit facilities is restricted as to availability and use to the specific companies as listed in the following table; however, if necessary, the PSEG facilities can also be used to support its subsidiaries’ liquidity needs. The total credit facilities and available liquidity as of September 30, 2017 were as follows:
