Maturity Schedule

As of 2025-12-31 (latest SEC filing with maturity data). Debt actions taken after this date will only appear once SEC processes the relevant XBRL filing.
⚠ This schedule may be incomplete: some maturity buckets were excluded because they only appear in older filings. Totals and concentration are not computed from partial schedules.

Period Amount Due % of Total
Year 1 (0-12 months) $5.8B 22.5%
Year 2 (12-24 months) $4.9B 19.0%
Year 3 (24-36 months) $5.6B 21.7%
Year 4 (36-48 months) $4.7B 18.2%
Year 5 (48-60 months) $4.8B 18.6%
Beyond 5 Years N/A N/A
Total Scheduled Maturities $25.8B 100.0%
Why don't these totals match? Total scheduled maturities ($25.8B) falls short of balance-sheet long-term debt ($97.1B) by about 73%. The two figures come from different disclosures: the maturity schedule aggregates gross principal repayments from the debt footnote — typically including the current portion of long-term debt and sometimes finance leases — while balance-sheet long-term debt is a carrying value that excludes the current portion and is net of unamortized discounts, premiums, and issuance costs. They can also come from filings with different period-end dates (2025-12-31 vs 2026-06-30). Both numbers are shown exactly as reported to the SEC.
