Summary

United Rentals (North America), Inc. completed a $2.5 billion senior notes offering across three series and used roughly $2.476 billion in net proceeds to repay its $975 million term loan facility in full and for general corporate purposes. After receiving investment-grade ratings from S&P Global Ratings and Moody's, the company released the collateral and subsidiary guarantees on its existing notes, triggering the release of guarantors under its amended credit agreement.

Key points

  • The offering comprised $700 million of 5.550% senior notes due 2029, $800 million of 5.750% senior notes due 2031 and $1 billion of 6.200% senior notes due 2036, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by United Rentals, Inc.
  • A $975 million term loan facility was repaid in full on October 29, 2026 using note proceeds, terminating that agreement.
  • An October 23, 2026 amendment to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires domestic subsidiaries to guarantee only if they incur capital markets debt or term loans above $300 million, and raised the European swingline sub-limit to $40 million from $15 million.
  • Existing notes are now senior unsecured obligations of United Rentals (North America), no longer guaranteed by subsidiaries, while obligations under the credit agreement remain senior secured.
