FMC ( (FMC) ) has shared an announcement.

On April 16, 2026, FMC Corporation and certain subsidiaries executed a sixth amendment to their existing syndicated credit agreement, adjusting the maximum leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio for specific quarters and setting a new maximum secured leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00 on a quarterly basis. The amendment designates additional subsidiaries as guarantors, grants security interests over selected assets, pledges equity interests as collateral, and tightens negative covenants on liens, fundamental changes, indebtedness, and transfers of material assets, effectively increasing creditor protections and potentially constraining the company’s financial flexibility while reinforcing the stability of its capital structure and banking relationships.

The most recent analyst rating on (FMC) stock is a Sell with a $13.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on FMC stock, see the FMC Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on FMC Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, FMC is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (losses, higher leverage, and negative operating/free cash flow). Offsetting factors include a neutral-to-slightly improving technical picture, a high dividend yield (tempered by loss-making earnings), and an earnings call that pairs near-term headwinds with a clear deleveraging and cost-reduction plan.
