Credit Facility

We have a $500,000,000 unsecured revolving line of credit (“credit facility”) that may be used to borrow revolving loans or request the issuance of letters of credit. We may, upon notice to the administrative agent, request existing or new lenders to increase the credit facility by up to $250,000,000, at such lenders’ option, to provide for a total of $750,000,000 of unsecured revolving credit. As of January 31, 2016, we were in compliance with our financial covenants under the credit facility and based on current projections, we expect to remain in compliance throughout fiscal 2016. The credit facility matures on November 19, 2019, at which time all outstanding borrowings must be repaid and all outstanding letters of credit must be cash collateralized.

 

We may elect interest rates calculated at (i) Bank of America’s prime rate (or, if greater, the average rate on overnight federal funds plus one-half of one percent, or a rate based on LIBOR plus one percent) plus a margin based on our leverage ratio or (ii) LIBOR plus a margin based on our leverage ratio. During fiscal 2015, we had borrowings of $200,000,000 under the credit facility (at a weighted average interest rate of 1.11%), all of which were repaid in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, and no amounts were outstanding as of January 31, 2016. During fiscal 2014, we had borrowings of $90,000,000 under the credit facility (at a weighted average interest rate of 1.05%), all of which were repaid in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, and no amounts were outstanding as of February 1, 2015. Additionally, as of January 31, 2016, $13,367,000 in issued but undrawn standby letters of credit was outstanding under the credit facility. The standby letters of credit were issued to secure the liabilities associated with workers’ compensation and other insurance programs.

Letter of Credit Facilities

We have three unsecured letter of credit reimbursement facilities for a total of $70,000,000, each of which matures on August 27, 2016. The letter of credit facilities contain covenants that are consistent with our unsecured revolving line of credit. Interest on unreimbursed amounts under the letter of credit facilities accrues at the lender’s prime rate (or, if greater, the average rate on overnight federal funds plus one-half of one percent) plus 2.0%. As of January 31, 2016, an aggregate of $6,088,000 was outstanding under the letter of credit facilities, which represents only a future commitment to fund inventory purchases to which we had not taken legal title. The latest expiration possible for any future letters of credit issued under the facilities is January 24, 2017.
