As of December 31, 2022, we had $575 million of debt outstanding with an all-in rate interest rate on borrowings of 5.93% and $425 million available under our revolving credit facility. Interest expense recognized on the revolving credit facility for the year ended December 31, 2022, six months ended December 31, 2021 and fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $10.0 million, $1.4 million, $3.3 million and $7.0 million, respectively, and included interest on the outstanding borrowings and the amortization of the debt issuance costs. We were in compliance with each financial covenant (leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio) under the revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2022.

On July 7, 2021, we entered into a fourth amendment to our revolving credit facility dated as of June 2, 2017. The amendment extends the maturity date from June 3, 2024, to July 7, 2026, adds provisions to provide for the eventual replacement of LIBOR and makes certain changes to the lenders under the agreement.

Royal Gold may repay any borrowings under the revolving credit facility at any time without premium or penalty.
