Credit Facility Amendments
Term Loan Facility
On February 14, 2020, the Company entered into a repricing and third amendment to the credit agreement governing its senior secured term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility") which, among other things, (a) refinanced the existing term loan B facility with a new term loan B facility in the same aggregate principal amount of approximately $144.6 million, and (b) extended the stated maturity date under the Term Loan Facility to February 14, 2027. The Term Loan Facility also includes an “accordion” feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the Term Loan Facility by an amount up to the greater of $270.0 million or 100.0% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), plus additional amounts (x) if such increase is secured on a pari passu basis with the loans under the Term Loan Facility, up to a Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Facility) of 2.50:1.00, (y) if such increase is secured on a junior basis with the loans under the Term Loan Facility, up to a Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Facility) of 3.50:1.00 and (z) if such increase is unsecured, up to a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Facility) of 3.50:1.00, subject to certain additional adjustments, which, under certain circumstances, allow for a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of up to 4.50:1.00.
The third amendment to the Term Loan Facility also amended the margin applied to loans under the term loan B facility to (x) in the case of ABR Loans (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), from 1.75% or 1.50% per annum (based on credit rating tests) to 1.00% per annum (subject to satisfying a leverage ratio test and subject to a leverage-based step-up to 1.25% if such leverage ratio test is exceeded), and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), from 2.75% or 2.50% per annum (based on credit rating tests) to 2.00% per annum (subject to satisfying a leverage ratio test and subject to a leverage-based step-up to 2.25% if such leverage ratio test is exceeded) (subject to a 0.00% floor on Eurodollar Loans). The material terms of the Term Loan Facility were otherwise unchanged.
On May 18, 2020, to provide additional liquidity in response to the business uncertainties resulting from the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the Term Loan Facility that, among other things, (a) provides for a new incremental term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million with a maturity date of February 14, 2027 (the “term loan B-1 facility”). The Company received net proceeds of $70.5 million from the term loan B-1 facility after deducting a $4.1 million original issuance discount and $0.3 million of debt issuance costs to third parties. The Company intends to use the net proceeds to support its growth plans and for general corporate purposes. The term loan B-1 facility is a separate tranche from the Company's existing term loan B facility. The terms of loans under the term loan B facility remain unchanged.
The Term Loan Facility provides a margin for loans under the term loan B-1 facility of (x) in the case of ABR Loans (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), 3.00% per annum, and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans (as defined in the Term Loan Facility), 4.00% per annum (subject to a 1.00% floor on Eurodollar Loans). At June 25, 2020, the applicable interest rate for borrowings was 2.2% for the term loan B facility and 5.0% for the term loan B-1 facility.
All obligations under the Term Loan Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in the collateral securing the revolving credit facility.
Gain on Debt Extinguishment
During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company evaluated the fourth amendment to the Term Loan Facility in accordance with ASC 470-50, "Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments," on a lender-by-lender basis and determined that the incremental term loan borrowing was provided entirely by one lender and its affiliates. As this lender held a portion of the existing Term Loan Facility debt, the Company performed the 10% cash flow test pursuant to ASC 470-50-40-10 and concluded that the results exceeded the 10% threshold. As a result, the Company accounted for this transaction as a partial extinguishment and derecognized the existing debt held by this lender and recorded the new debt at fair value. Based on the difference between the reacquisition price and carrying amount of debt, the Company recognized a $1.0 million gain on early extinguishment of debt, which included the original issuance discount of $4.1 million and $0.5 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the extinguished debt as part of the calculation.
ABL Facility
On February 14, 2020, the Company also entered into a repricing and general amendment to the credit agreement governing its revolving credit facility (as amended, the “ABL Facility”) that, among other things, (a) increased its revolving commitments to a total aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million, and (b) extended the stated maturity date under the ABL Facility to February 14, 2025. The ABL Facility also includes an “accordion” feature that allows the Company under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility by an amount up to $100.0 million, or such higher amount as may be agreed to by the Required Lenders (as defined in the ABL Facility).
The amendment to the ABL Facility also amended the margin applied to loans and letters of credit to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans (as defined in the ABL Facility), from 0.25% or 0.50% per annum (based on availability) to a flat rate of 0.25% per annum, (y) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans (as defined in the ABL Facility) and letter of credit fees for standby letters of credit, from 1.25% or 1.50% per annum (based on availability) to a flat rate of 1.25% per annum (subject to a 0.00% floor on LIBO Rate Loans) and (z) in the case of letter of credit fees for commercial letters of credit, from 0.75% or 1.00% per annum (based on availability) to a flat rate of 0.75% per annum. The material terms of the ABL Facility were otherwise unchanged.
As of June 25, 2020, the Company's ABL Facility had a maximum availability of $400.0 million with actual available borrowings limited to the sum, at the time of calculation, of (a) eligible credit card receivables multiplied by the credit card advance rate, plus (b) the cost of eligible inventory, net of inventory reserves, multiplied by the applicable appraisal percentage, plus (c) 85% of eligible net trade receivables, plus (d) all eligible cash on hand, plus (e) 100% of the amount for which the eligible letter of credit must be honored after giving effect to any draws, minus certain Availability Reserves (each component as defined in the ABL Facility). The ABL Facility is available for issuance of letters of credit and contains a sublimit of $50.0 million for standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit combined. Available borrowings under the facility are reduced by the face amount of outstanding letters of credit.
All obligations under the ABL Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in the cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, and related assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the ABL Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in substantially all of the other property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility.
Net availability under the ABL Facility, as reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $20.3 million, was $362.1 million based on financial data as of June 25, 2020.
Covenants
The credit agreements governing the Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility contain customary restrictive covenants that, among other things and with certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness and liens in connection with such indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments, (iii) effect mergers or consolidations, (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates, (v) sell or dispose of property or assets, and (vi) engage in unrelated lines of business. In addition, these credit agreements subject the Company to certain reporting obligations and require that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, including, among other things, a requirement that if borrowings under the ABL Facility exceed 90% of availability, the Company will maintain a certain fixed charge coverage ratio (defined as Consolidated EBITDA less non-financed capital expenditures and income taxes paid to consolidated fixed charges, in each case as more fully defined in the ABL Facility).
The Term Loan Facility has no financial maintenance covenants. The Company is currently in compliance with all material covenants under the credit agreements.
