Goldman Sachs Group Inc. plans to provide $3.75 billion to finance the acquisition of a subsidiary of DuPont de Nemours Inc. the chemical company Arclin Inc. This is reported in the Arclin press release.
The deal will include $2.25 billion in borrowed funds, $31 billion in junk bonds, and a $500 million revolving credit facility. TJC LP, as a shareholder of Arclin, also increased its investments in the DuPont deal.
In September 2025, the discussion focused on an urgent loan of $3 billion, a revolving loan of $500 million and a deferred repayment loan of $250 million. The revised terms were accepted following the completion of the acquisition of Willamette Valley Co. by Arclin.
The decision to attract part of the financing to the bond market was made due to the fact that the US credit market is showing signs of weakness, and the sale of software debts has led to billions of dollars in loans in problem territory.
In September 2025, DuPont de Nemours Inc. entered into a definitive agreement to sell the Aramids division to Arclin for $1.8 billion.
The decision to sell assets was made in connection with the reorganization announced in May 2024 and aimed at optimizing DuPont's assets, increasing revenue for shareholders and implementing strategic plans to further increase the company's value. The sale of Aramids will not affect the planned separation of DuPont's electronics division on November 1, 2025.
Centerview Partners and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC act as DuPont's financial advisors, while Piper Sandler & The Company and Kirkland&Ellis LLP are TJC/Arclin consultants.
