Monitor whether the acquisition closes by the January 2027 deadline, as failure would trigger mandatory redemption of $2.8 billion in notes, creating significant liquidity pressure. The new debt improves the capital structure by replacing 8.625% notes with lower-cost financing, but adds refinancing risk if the acquisition fails.
