The Company’s Credit Agreement originally provided the Company with two term loans (a Term Loan A Facility and a Term Loan B Facility) and the Revolving Credit Facility. On October 10, 2013, the Company amended its Credit Agreement resulting in the payoff of the Term Loan B Facility while establishing a principal balance of $775.0 million for the Term Loan A Facility. The Amendment provided for a lower effective interest rate on the term loan debt, and a one-year extension on both the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility, both of which are now due October 10, 2018. In addition, the Amendment provided for increased maximum debt capacity (including outstanding term loan principal and Revolving Credit Facility commitment amounts in addition to permitted incremental debt) not to exceed $1,350.0 million. The Company incurred $13.1 million of debt extinguishment costs in fiscal 2013 in connection with the Amendment. The Company incurred $1.3 million of debt extinguishment costs in fiscal 2014 due to $200.0 million of voluntary debt payments. These costs represent a write-off of previously capitalized deferred financing costs.
The interest rates applicable to amounts outstanding under the Term Loan A Facility and to U.S. dollar denominated amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will be, at the Company’s option, either (1) the Alternate Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin as determined by the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, within a range of 0.375% to 1.25%, or (2) the Eurocurrency Rate plus an Applicable Margin as determined by the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, within a range of 1.375% to 2.25% (all capitalized terms used in this sentence are as defined in the Credit Agreement). As required by the Credit Agreement, the Company has an interest rate swap arrangement that reduces the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on its variable rate debt.
The Revolving Credit Facility allows the Company to borrow up to an aggregate amount of $200.0 million and includes a $100.0 million foreign currency subfacility under which borrowings may be made, subject to certain conditions, in Canadian dollars, British pounds, euros, Hong Kong dollars, Swedish kronor, Swiss francs and such additional currencies as are determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a $50.0 million swingline subfacility and a $50.0 million letter of credit subfacility.
The Company had outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility as of January 3, 2015 and December 28, 2013 of $3.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively. These outstanding letters of credit reduce the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The obligations of the Company pursuant to the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the personal and real property of the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.
The Credit Agreement also contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things: incur or guarantee indebtedness; incur liens; pay dividends or repurchase stock; enter into transactions with affiliates; consummate asset sales, acquisitions or mergers; prepay certain other indebtedness; or make investments, as well as covenants restricting the activities of certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company that hold intellectual property related assets. Further, the Credit Agreement requires compliance with the following financial covenants: a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio; a maximum Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio; and a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (all capitalized terms used in this paragraph are as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of January 3, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and performance ratios under the Credit Agreement.
The Company has $375.0 million of senior notes outstanding that may be traded in the public market that are due on October 15, 2020. The Public Bonds bear interest at 6.125% with the related interest payments due semi-annually. The Public Bonds are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.
During fiscal 2014, the Company entered into a $5.0 million (or the equivalent amount in Chinese Renminbi) revolving line of credit. The facility is uncommitted and, therefore, each borrowing against the facility is subject to approval by the lender. As of January 3, 2015, there were no borrowings against this facility.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company recorded a capital lease obligation. The lease commenced during June 2014 and payments are scheduled to continue through February 2022.
The Company included in interest expense the amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $4.2 million, $6.1 million and $1.8 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Subsequent to the end of fiscal 2014, the Company made voluntary debt payments of $58.0 million on the Term Loan A Facility.
Cash flows from operating activities, along with borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility, if any, are expected to be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital needs for the foreseeable future. Any excess cash flows from operating activities are expected to be used to reduce debt, fund internal and external growth initiatives, purchase property, plant and equipment, pay dividends or repurchase the Company’s common stock.
