ASX-listed James Hardie secures $3.5 billion credit to fund AZEK deal
(Reuters) -ASX-listed James Hardie said on Monday it had secured new senior credit facilities for a total of $3.5 billion with broad support, including 30 participating banks to support its operations and acquisition of U.S.-listed AZEK. The multi-billion dollar loan facility can be broken down into a $1 billion revolving credit facility and a $2.5 billion senior secured term loan A, split into two tranches. The fibre-cement maker had offered to buy the U.S. artificial decking maker for $8.75 billion in March, while markets were concerned about a slowdown in the U.S. housing sector. With the new credit facilities, bridge facility commitments with certain lenders in connection with the pending acquisition were reduced from $4.3 billion to $1.7 billion. New housing stock in the U.S. is near a two-decade high and tariffs and an immigration crackdown under President Donald Trump are seen as likely to slow construction further. In May, the building material firm forecast tepid earnings growth for its North American business, the company's biggest market and profit engine, while reporting a drop in annual profit. Back in Australia, market scrutiny has also increased on such large corporate buyouts after investors raised questions about the AZEK deal. In a separate announcement, James Hardie terminated its American depositary shares (ADS) program, believing it will become unnecessary after the company lists its share on the New York Stock Exchange. James Hardie's ASX-listed shares jumped as much as 3.2% to A$36.57, their highest level in over a week, and were last trading up 2.9%. The stock has lost more than 8% in value since the buyout deal was announced in March. Sign in to access your portfolio

Mariners slugger Cal Raleigh leads MLB in homers and is on pace to set a season record for catchers
SEATTLE (AP) — Just before Big Dumper put a thump into a soaring flyball, a smattering of 'MVP! MVP!' chants broke out from behind home plate Sunday. Given the way Cal Raleigh's season has started, perhaps the Mariners' catcher is wholly deserving of such high praise. With a solo shot during Seattle's latest victory, a 2-1 win over the Minnesota Twins, Raleigh upped his total to a major league-leading 23 home runs. 'He's having an excellent season, not only offensively but also defensively,' teammate Randy Arozarena said, with bench coach Manny Acta translating. 'What he's doing right now, it's great because he's carrying our offense pretty much.' That's no exaggeration on Arozarena's part. And what Raleigh is doing is also unprecedented. The 28-year-old backstop from North Carolina with the funny nickname became the first catcher in major league history to reach 20 home runs before the end of May. His 22 home runs entering June tied for the second-most in Mariners history behind only Ken Griffey Jr., who had 24 in 1997. 'He just continues to grow and mature in this game,' said Mariners manager Dan Wilson, a former catcher who was on that Seattle team in 1997. 'And the pace that he's on right now with home runs — and he's not just hitting home runs, he's still just hitting the ball hard. 'You add that to what he does behind the plate in a game like this — whew, he's a real special player and he's doing it all right now.' According to Baseball Savant, Raleigh ranks eighth among big league catchers in Fielding Run Value. He also has more home runs than Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge. So it's no wonder Raleigh has already been worth 3.3 Wins Above Replacement, per less than 60 games into the season for the AL West-leading Mariners. 'I just wish that he continues to stay healthy and (has) a very long career,' Seattle pitcher Luis Castillo said, with Acta translating. 'Because it's a lot of fun right now.' Salvador Perez of the Kansas City Royals holds the big league record for home runs in a season by a catcher with 48 in 2021. Raleigh is on pace for 64 this year, which would break the American League mark of 62 set by Judge in 2022. Sure, there's still a long way to go in 2025. But, awfully impressive for someone playing such a demanding and taxing position, where offense is often considered a luxury rather than a requirement. 'Sometimes it's not playing harder, it's playing smarter,' said Wilson, a major league catcher for 14 years. 'And he continues to play smart baseball whether it's behind the plate or at the bat. He's coming up huge for us all over the place.' ___ AP MLB:

Pittsburgh Steelers Continue Roster Changes with UDFA Cut
Pittsburgh Steelers Continue Roster Changes with UDFA Cut originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Pittsburgh Steelers continue to make roster moves early in the offseason. On Thursday, Pittsburgh announced it released defensive end Blake Mangelson via its X account. Mangelson was signed as an UDFA on April 28 and participated in rookie minicamp and the first week of OTAs. Advertisement Before signing with the Steelers this offseason, Mangelson accepted an offer to the Minnesota Vikings' rookie minicamp but canceled when Pittsburgh came calling. The 23-year-old is a monster at 6-5, 279 pounds and played collegiately at BYU. Across four seasons, he posted 82 total tackles with 12 for loss, 2.5 sacks, one interception and four passes defended. His release brings the 90-man roster back down to 90 after wideout Montana Lemonious-Craig signed earlier this week, but Pittsburgh is technically allowed 91 players since Julius Welschof has a roster exemption with the NFL International Pathway Program. The Steelers are expected by some to sign veteran free agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers, so they now have a roster spot open for that, but even if Rodgers decides not to sign, the team has stated they'll add another veteran to compete with Mason Rudolph for the starting job. Advertisement It's also possible Pittsburgh re-signs Mangelson at some point this offseason after more cuts or an injury to a defensive lineman necessitates a need. The team typically retains six or seven on the regular-season 53-man roster, and after Mangelson's release, they currently have 12 with mandatory minicamp beginning on June 10.
