Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Long-Term Debt | Long-Term Debt Senior Credit Facility On September 25, 2013, the Company entered into a $1,000,000, 5-year, senior revolving credit facility (the "2013 Senior Credit Facility"). The 2013 Senior Credit Facility provided for a maximum of $1,000,000 of revolving credit, including limited amounts of credit in the form of letters of credit and swingline loans. The Company paid financing costs of $1,836 in connection with its 2013 Senior Credit Facility. These costs were deferred and, along with unamortized costs of $11,440 related to the Company’s previous credit facility, were amortized over the term of the 2013 Senior Credit Facility. On March 26, 2015, the Company amended and restated the 2013 Senior Credit Facility increasing its size from $1,000,000 to $1,800,000 and extending the maturity from September 25, 2018 to March 26, 2020 (the "2015 Senior Credit Facility"). The 2015 Senior Credit Facility eliminates certain provisions in the 2013 Senior Credit Facility, including those that: (a) accelerated the maturity date to 90 days prior to the maturity of senior notes due in January 2016 if certain specified liquidity levels were not met; and (b) required that certain subsidiaries guarantee the Company's obligations if the Company’s credit ratings fell below investment grade. The 2015 Senior Credit Facility also modified certain negative covenants to provide the Company with additional flexibility, including that to make acquisitions and incur indebtedness. At the Company's election, revolving loans under the 2015 Senior Credit Facility bear interest at annual rates equal to either (a) LIBOR for 1, 2, 3 or 6 month periods, as selected by the Company, plus an applicable margin ranging between 1.00% and 1.75% (1.25% as of December 31, 2015), or (b) the higher of the Wells Fargo Bank, National Association prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, and a monthly LIBOR rate plus 1.0%, plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.00% and 0.75% (0.25% as of December 31, 2015). The Company also pays a commitment fee to the lenders under the 2015 Senior Credit Facility on the average amount by which the aggregate commitments of the lenders' exceed utilization of the 2015 Senior Credit Facility ranging from 0.10% to 0.225% per annum. As of December 31, 2015, the Company is paying a commitment fee of 0.15%. The applicable margins and the commitment fee are determined based on whichever of the Company's Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio or its senior unsecured debt rating (or if not available, corporate family rating) results in the lower applicable margins and commitment fee (with applicable margins and the commitment fee increasing as that ratio increases or those ratings decline, as applicable). The obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries in respect of the 2015 Senior Credit Facility are unsecured. The 2015 Senior Credit Facility includes certain affirmative and negative covenants that impose restrictions on the Company's financial and business operations, including limitations on liens, subsidiary indebtedness, fundamental changes, asset dispositions, dividends and other similar restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, future negative pledges, and changes in the nature of the Company's business. The Company is also required to maintain a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio of no more than 3.75 to 1.0, each as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. The limitations contain customary exceptions or; in certain cases, do not apply as long as the Company is in compliance with the financial ratio requirements and is not otherwise in default. The 2015 Senior Credit Facility also contains customary representations and warranties and events of default, subject to customary grace periods. The Company paid financing costs of $2,641 in connection with its 2015 Senior Credit Facility. These costs were deferred and, along with unamortized costs of $8,654 related to the Company’s 2013 Senior Credit Facility, are being amortized over the term of the 2015 Senior Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2015, amounts utilized under the 2015 Senior Credit Facility included $134,075 of borrowings and $1,381 of standby letters of credit related to various insurance contracts and foreign vendor commitments. The outstanding borrowings of $756,867 under the Company's U.S. and European commercial paper programs as of December 31, 2015 reduce the availability of the 2015 Senior Credit Facility. Taking the commercial paper borrowings into account, the Company has utilized $892,323 under the 2015 Senior Credit Facility resulting in a total of $907,677 available under the 2015 Senior Credit Facility. Commercial Paper On February 28, 2014, the Company established a U.S. commercial paper program for the issuance of unsecured commercial paper in the United States capital markets. Under the commercial paper program, the Company issues commercial paper notes from time to time. On May 21, 2015, following the amendment and restatement of the 2013 Credit Facility, the Company expanded the amount of borrowings permitted under its U.S. commercial paper program from $1,000,000 to $1,800,000. The U.S. commercial paper notes have maturities ranging from one day to 397 days and are not subject to voluntary prepayment by the Company or redemption prior to maturity. The U.S. commercial paper notes rank pari passu with all of the Company's other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. On July 31, 2015, the Company established a European commercial paper program for the issuance of unsecured commercial paper in the Eurozone capital markets. Under the European commercial paper program, the Company issues commercial paper notes from time to time, subject to a cap equal to €1,000,000. The European commercial paper notes have maturities ranging from one day to 183 days and are not subject to voluntary prepayment by the Company or redemption prior to maturity. The European commercial paper notes rank pari passu with all of the Company's other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. To the extent European commercial paper notes are issued by a subsidiary of the Company, payment on such notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. The Company uses its 2015 Senior Credit Facility as a liquidity backstop for its commercial paper programs. Accordingly, the total amount due and payable under all of the Company's commercial paper programs may not exceed $1,800,000 (less any amounts drawn on the 2015 Credit Facility) at any time. The proceeds from the sale of commercial paper notes will be available for general corporate purposes. The Company used the initial proceeds from the sale of U.S. commercial paper notes to repay borrowings under its 2013 Senior Credit Facility and certain of its industrial revenue bonds. The Company used the initial proceeds from the sale of European commercial paper notes to repay euro-denominated borrowings under its 2015 Senior Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2015, the amount utilized under the commercial paper programs was $756,867 with a weighted-average interest rate and maturity period of 0.65% and 28.35 days, respectively for the U.S. commercial paper program and 0.08% and 34.82 days, respectively for the European commercial paper program. Senior Notes On June 9, 2015, the Company issued €500,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.00% Senior Notes due January 14, 2022. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank pari passu with all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness. Interest on the Notes is payable annually in cash on January 14 of each year, commencing on January 14, 2016. The Company paid financing costs of $4,218 in connection with the 2.00% Senior Notes. These costs were deferred and are being amortized over the term of the 2.00% Senior Notes. On January 31, 2013, the Company issued $600,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.85% Senior Notes due February 1, 2023. The Company paid financing costs of $6,000 in connection with the 3.85% Senior Notes. These costs were deferred and are being amortized over the term of the 3.85% Senior Notes. On January 17, 2006, the Company issued $900,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Notes due January 15, 2016. On August 15, 2014, the Company purchased for cash approximately $200,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 6.125% senior notes due January 15, 2016 at a price equal to 107.73% of the principal amount, resulting in a premium to redeeming noteholders of approximately $15,450 and fees of $1,080 associated with the redemption. The premium as well as the fees are included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations as at December 31, 2015. On November 3, 2014, the Company purchased for cash approximately $54,400 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 6.125% senior notes due January 15, 2016 at a price equal to 106.38% of the principal amount, resulting in a premium to redeeming noteholders of approximately $3,500. The premium is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations as at December 31, 2015. On January 15, 2016, the Company paid the remaining approximately $645,555 outstanding principal of its 6.125% senior notes utilizing cash on hand and borrowings under its 2015 Senior Credit Facility. Accounts Receivable Securitization On December 19, 2012, the Company entered into a three-year on-balance sheet trade accounts receivable securitization agreement (the "Securitization Facility"). On September 11, 2014, the Company made certain modifications to its Securitization Facility, which modifications, among other things, increased the aggregate borrowings available under the facility from $300,000 to $500,000 and decreased the interest margins on certain borrowings. On December 10, 2015, the Company amended the terms of the Securitization Facility, reducing the applicable margin and extending the termination date from December 19, 2015 to December 19, 2016. The Company paid financing costs of $250 in connection with this extension. These costs were deferred and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Securitization Facility. Under the terms of the Securitization Facility, certain subsidiaries of the Company sell at a discount certain of their trade accounts receivable (the “Receivables”) to Mohawk Factoring, LLC (“Factoring”) on a revolving basis. The Company has determined that Factoring is a bankruptcy remote subsidiary, meaning that Factoring is a separate legal entity whose assets are available to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Factoring only, not the creditors of the Company or the Company’s other subsidiaries. Factoring may borrow up to $500,000 based on the amount of eligible Receivables owned by Factoring, and Factoring has granted a security interest in all of such Receivables to the third-party lending group as collateral for such borrowings. Amounts loaned to Factoring under the Securitization Facility bear interest at commercial paper interest rates, in the case of lenders that are commercial paper conduits, or LIBOR, in the case of lenders that are not commercial paper conduits, in each case, plus an applicable margin of 0.65% per annum. Factoring also pays a commitment fee at a per annum rate of 0.35% on the unused amount of each lender’s commitment. At December 31, 2015, the amount utilized under the Securitization Facility was $500,000. The fair values and carrying values of our debt instruments are detailed as follows:
