Altria Group extends $3.0 billion credit agreement to October 24, 2030

Effective October 7, 2026, Altria Group, Inc. entered into an extension agreement referred to as the 2026 Extension Agreement. The agreement amended its $3.0 billion senior unsecured 5-year revolving credit agreement, dated as of October 24, 2023. The new agreement extended the expiration date from October 24, 2029 to October 24, 2030.

The extension was entered into with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agents, and the lenders named therein. Some of the lenders under the credit agreement and their affiliates had various relationships with Altria and its subsidiaries involving cash management, investment banking and trust services.

A revolving credit agreement worked as a standby facility that a company could use to borrow under agreed terms. For investors, the importance lay in continuity, as the filing showed the arrangement stayed available longer without other disclosed changes.

Altria Group filed Form 8-K with the SEC on 2026-10-09. The filing reported Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement and Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits. The date of report, which was the date of the earliest event reported, was October 7, 2026.

The credit agreement had previously been extended by an extension agreement effective July 23, 2025. According to the company, that extension was part of the history of the same credit agreement.

The new expiration date of the credit agreement was October 24, 2030. All other terms and conditions remained in full force and effect, so the filing disclosed no further changes for investors to track in the agreement itself.
