8.  Debt

 

The Company has historically obtained its debt financing, other than capital leases, from various sources including banks and the public markets. As of April 3, 2016, the Company’s total outstanding balance of debt and capital lease obligations was $814.1 million of which $620.0 million was financed through publicly offered debt. The Company had capital lease obligations of $54.1 million as of April 3, 2016. The Company mitigates its financing risk by using multiple financial institutions and enters into credit arrangements only with institutions with investment grade credit ratings. The Company monitors counterparty credit ratings on an ongoing basis.

On October 16, 2014, the Company entered into a $350 million five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). On April 27, 2015, the Company exercised the accordion feature of the Revolving Credit Facility, thereby increasing the aggregate availability by $100 million to $450 million. The Revolving Credit Facility has a scheduled maturity date of October 16, 2019 and up to $50 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating base rate or a floating Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin, dependent on the Company’s credit rating at the time of borrowing. At the Company’s current credit ratings, the Company must pay an annual facility fee of 0.15% of the lenders’ aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility includes two financial covenants: a cash flow/fixed charges ratio and a funded indebtedness/cash flow ratio, each as defined in the agreement. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at April 3, 2016. These covenants do not currently, and the Company does not anticipate they will, restrict its liquidity or capital resources.

On April 3, 2016, the Company had $140.0 million of outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility and had $310.0 million available to meet its cash requirements. On January 3, 2016, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility. On March 29, 2015, the Company had $153.0 million of outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility.

In November 2015, the Company issued $350 million of unsecured 3.8% Senior Notes due 2025.  The notes were issued at 99.975% of par, which resulted in a discount on the notes of approximately $0.1 million.  Total debt issuance costs for these notes totaled $3.2 million.  The proceeds plus cash on hand were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company refinanced its $100 million of senior notes, which matured in April 2015, with borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.  The Company has $164.8 million of senior notes maturing in June 2016.  The Company expects to refinance the notes when due and, accordingly, has classified the $164.8 million of senior notes due in June 2016 as long-term.

As of April 3, 2016, January 3, 2016 and March 29, 2015, the Company had a weighted average interest rate of 4.7%, 5.5% and 5.2%, respectively, for its outstanding debt and capital lease obligations.  The Company’s overall weighted average interest rate on its debt and capital lease obligations was 4.7% and 5.3% for Q1 2016 and Q1 2015 respectively. As of April 3, 2016, $140.0 million of the Company’s debt and capital lease obligations of $814.1 million were subject to changes in short-term interest rates.
