Land O’Lakes, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it executed an amendment to its five-year accounts receivable securitization facility (the “AR Facility”), arranged by CoBank, ACB, to increase its borrowing capacity thereunder from $300,000,000 to $400,000,000. Pricing and other material terms and conditions under the facility were unchanged. The amendment will provide the Company with additional liquidity to support ongoing working capital needs in the currently higher-priced commodity environment, including seasonal capital for the recently acquired crop protection product business. The Company also amended its $225,000,000, five-year secured revolving credit facility, arranged by JPMorgan Chase Bank, to permit the expansion of the AR Facility.
