Item 8.01 Other Events

On January 6, 2025, AMETEK, Inc. (the “Company”) established a commercial paper program (the “Program”), pursuant to which it may issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes (the “Notes”) under the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Amounts available under the Program may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed from time to time, with the aggregate face or principal amount of the Notes outstanding under the Program at any time not to exceed $2,300,000,000. The Notes will have maturities of up to 364 days from the date of issue. The Notes will rank at least pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company. No Notes are currently outstanding under the Program. The Company intends the Program to provide additional financing flexibility for various purposes including acquisitions. The Company expects that its revolving credit facility will serve as a liquidity backstop for the repayment of Notes outstanding under the Program, such that indebtedness of the Company outstanding under both the revolving credit facility and the Program should not exceed $2,300,000,000 at any time.

One or more commercial paper dealers will each act as a dealer under the Program (each, a “Dealer”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the respective commercial paper dealer agreement entered into between the Company and each Dealer.

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may be offered or sold in the United States only in compliance with an applicable exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws. The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any Notes.
