* Includes fair value adjustments related to interest rate swaps. The annual maturities of Snap-on’s long-term debt and notes payable over the next five years are $301.4 million in 2017 (including $150 million of unsecured 5.50% notes due January 2017 (the “2017 Notes”) that were repaid upon maturity), $250 million on January 15, 2018, $200 million in 2019, no maturities in 2020, and $250 million in 2021. As of 2016 year end, the $250 million of 4.25% unsecured notes that mature on January 15, 2018, are included in “Long-term debt” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as their scheduled maturity was in excess of one year of the 2016 year-end balance sheet date. See Note 20 regarding the January 2017 repayment of the 2017 Notes. Average notes payable outstanding, including commercial paper borrowings, were $49.3 million and $78.5 million in 2016 and 2015, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate of 7.09% in 2016 increased from 4.36% last year primarily due to higher interest rates on local borrowings in emerging growth markets (where interest rates are generally higher). Average commercial paper borrowings were $26.6 million and $52.2 million in 2016 and 2015, respectively, and the weighted-average interest rate of 0.73% in 2016 increased from 0.41% last year. At 2016 year end, the weighted-average interest rate on outstanding notes payable of 2.85% compared with 15.82% at 2015 year end. The 2016 year-end rate benefited from lower interest rates on commercial paper borrowings. The 2015 year-end rate reflected higher rates on local borrowings in emerging growth markets; no commercial paper was outstanding at 2015 year end. Snap-on has a five-year, $700 million multi-currency revolving credit facility that terminates on December 15, 2020 (the “Credit Facility”); as of December 31, 2016, no amounts were outstanding under the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at varying rates based on Snap-on’s then-current, long-term debt ratings. The Credit Facility’s financial covenant requires that Snap-on maintain, as of each fiscal quarter end, either (i) a ratio not greater than 0.60 to 1.00 of consolidated net debt (consolidated debt net of certain cash adjustments) to the sum of such consolidated net debt plus total equity and less accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (the “Debt Ratio”); or (ii) a ratio not greater than 3.50 to 1.00 of such consolidated net debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain other adjustments for the preceding four fiscal quarters then ended (the “Debt to EBITDA Ratio”). Snap-on may, up to two times during any five-year period during the term of the Credit Facility (including any extensions thereof), increase the maximum Debt Ratio to 0.65 to 1.00 and/or increase the maximum Debt to EBITDA Ratio to 3.75 to 1.00 for four consecutive fiscal quarters in connection with certain material acquisitions (as defined in the related credit agreement). As of 2016 year end, the company’s actual ratios of 0.24 and 1.02, respectively, were both within the permitted ranges set forth in this financial covenant. Snap-on generally issues commercial paper to fund its financing needs on a short-term basis and uses the Credit Facility as back-up liquidity to support such commercial paper issuances.
