Long-Term Debt

10. Long-Term Debt

Prior to June 15, 2016, the Company was party to a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as lender (the “Lender”), dated January 18, 2013, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of December 12, 2014 (“Amendment No. 1”), Amendment No. 2 dated as of June 3, 2015 (“Amendment No. 2”), Amendment No. 3, dated as of September 23, 2015 (“Amendment No. 3”) and Amendment No. 4, dated as of November 20, 2015 (“Amendment No. 4”; the existing Credit Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3 and Amendment No. 4, the “Credit Agreement”).

The Credit Agreement provides for, among other things: (i) a senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $150 million (the “Term Facility”); and (ii) a revolving credit facility (the “Revolver” and, together with the Term Facility, the “Credit Facilities”) in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million, which includes a $25.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. Both the Revolver and the Term Facility mature on September 23, 2020, and may be prepaid and terminated early by the Company at any time without premium or penalty (subject to customary LIBOR breakage fees).

The Credit Agreement includes customary and affirmative negative covenants. In particular, the Credit Agreements limit us to consummating permitted acquisitions, paying dividends to our stockholders and making share repurchases in any fiscal year to a cumulative total of $135.0 million, excluding the consideration paid in connection with the acquisition of Legacy Hay Group. Subject to the foregoing, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company is permitted to pay up to $85.0 million in dividends and share repurchases, in the aggregate, in any fiscal year (subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions). The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain $50.0 million in domestic liquidity, defined as unrestricted cash and/or marketable securities (excluding any marketable securities that are held in trust for the settlement of the Company’s obligation under certain deferred compensation plans) as a condition to consummating permitted acquisitions, paying dividends to our stockholders and repurchasing shares of our common stock. Undrawn amounts on the Company’s line of credit may be used to calculate domestic liquidity.

 

The Credit Agreement includes minimum Adjusted EBITDA and maximum Total Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio financial covenants (the “consolidated leverage ratio”) (in each case as defined in the Credit Agreement). As of April 30, 2016, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.

At the Company’s option, loans issued under the Credit Facilities bear interest at either adjusted LIBOR or an alternate base rate, in each case plus the applicable interest rate margin. The interest rate applicable to loans outstanding under the Credit Facilities may fluctuate between adjusted LIBOR plus 1.125% per annum to adjusted LIBOR plus 1.875% per annum, in the case of LIBOR borrowings (or between the alternate base rate plus 0.125% per annum and the alternate base rate plus 0.875% per annum, in the alternative), based upon the consolidated leverage ratio at such time. In addition, the Company will be required to pay to the Lender a quarterly fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.40% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Credit Facilities, based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio at such time, and fees relating to the issuance of letters of credit.

On November 23, 2015, the Company borrowed $150 million under the Term Facility. The Term Facility is payable in quarterly installments, with the final installment consisting of all remaining unpaid principal due on the term loan maturity date of September 23, 2020. The Company made $10.0 million in principal payments during fiscal 2016. As of April 30, 2016, there was $140.0 million outstanding under the Term Facility. The fair value of the Company’s Term Facility is based on borrowing rates currently required of loans with similar terms, maturity and credit risk. The carrying amount of the Term Facility approximates fair value because the base interest rate charged varies with market conditions and the credit spread is commensurate with current market spreads for issuers of similar risk. The fair value of the Term Facility is classified as a Level 2 liability in the fair value hierarchy. The interest rate on the debt is Adjusted LIBOR plus a spread which is dependent on the Company’s leverage ratio, as discussed above. During fiscal 2016, the average interest rate on the term loan was 1.65%. On June 15, 2016, the Company entered into a new senior secured $400 million Credit Agreement. The Company drew down $275 million on the new term loan and used $140 million of the proceeds to pay-off the term loan that was outstanding as of April 30, 2016. See Note 16 Subsequent Event New Credit Agreement.

As of April 30, 2016 and 2015, there was no borrowing made under the Revolver. At April 30, 2016 and 2015, there was $2.8 million of standby letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement. The Company had a total of $6.4 million and $1.6 million of standby letters of credits with other financial institutions as of April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company has outstanding borrowings against the CSV of COLI contracts of $68.4 million and $69.6 million at April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. CSV reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is net of the outstanding borrowings, which are secured by the CSV of the life insurance policies. Principal payments are not scheduled and interest is payable at least annually at various fixed and variable rates ranging from 4.76% to 8.00%.
