Celestica Completes New $800 Million Credit Facility

TORONTO, June 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Celestica Inc. (NYSE:CLS) (TSX:CLS), a leader in design, manufacturing and supply chain solutions for the world’s most innovative companies, today announced that it has entered into a new $800 million credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) established pursuant to a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders and Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent.  The Credit Facility will refinance and replace the Company's existing bank credit facility that was due to mature in May 2020.  All dollar amounts are denominated in US dollars.

The Credit Facility will be used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Company’s existing bank credit facility, and for other general corporate activities, including, but not limited to, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, share repurchases and/or acquisitions.
