Line of Credit Facility [Abstract] |
UNSECURED BANK CREDIT FACILITIES | UNSECURED BANK CREDIT FACILITIES Until June 29, 2021, EastGroup had $350,000,000 and $45,000,000 unsecured bank credit facilities with margins over LIBOR of 100 basis points, facility fees of 20 basis points and maturity dates of July 30, 2022. The Company amended and restated these credit facilities on June 29, 2021, expanding the capacity to $425,000,000 and $50,000,000, as detailed below. The $425,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility is with a group of nine banks and has a maturity date of July 30, 2025. The credit facility contains options for two six-month extensions (at the Company’s election) and a $325,000,000 accordion (with agreement by all parties). The interest rate on each tranche is reset on a monthly basis and as of December 31, 2022, was LIBOR plus 77.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 15 basis points. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $170,000,000 of variable rate borrowings on this unsecured bank credit facility with a weighted average interest rate of 5.146%. The Company has a standby letter of credit of $67,000 pledged on this facility. The Company’s $50,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility has a maturity date of July 30, 2025, or such later date as designated by the bank; the Company also has two six-month extensions available if the extension options in the $425,000,000 facility are exercised. The interest rate is reset on a daily basis and as of December 31, 2022, was LIBOR plus 77.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 15 basis points. As of December 31, 2022, the interest rate was 5.167% with no outstanding balance. For both facilities, the margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company’s credit ratings. Although the Company’s current credit rating is Baa2, given the strength of the Company’s key credit metrics, initial pricing for the credit facilities is based on the BBB+/Baa1 credit ratings level. This favorable pricing level will be retained provided that the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the applicable agreements, remains less than 32.5%. The facilities also include a sustainability-linked pricing component pursuant to which, if the Company meets certain sustainability performance targets, the applicable interest margin will be reduced by one basis point. Average unsecured bank credit facilities borrowings were $182,478,000 in 2022, $95,629,000 in 2021 and $87,095,000 in 2020, with weighted average interest rates (excluding amortization of facility fees and debt issuance costs) of 2.32% in 2022, 1.01% in 2021 and 1.86% in 2020. Amortization of facility fees was $713,000, $751,000 and $790,000 for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs for the Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities was $650,000, $606,000 and $561,000 for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities have certain restrictive covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage, and the Company was in compliance with all of its financial debt covenants at December 31, 2022. See Note 6 for a detail of the outstanding balances of the Company’s Unsecured bank credit facilities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
