Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Seasonal Financing and Debt | Seasonal Financing and Debt Seasonal Financing On September 15, 2022, Mattel entered into a revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") as the borrower with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders and financial institutions party thereto, providing for $1.40 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on September 15, 2025. In connection with the entry into the Credit Agreement, the Company terminated the commitments and satisfied all outstanding obligations under the previous credit agreement, dated December 20, 2017 (as amended), by and among Mattel, certain domestic and foreign subsidiaries of Mattel, as additional borrowers, certain other domestic and foreign subsidiaries of Mattel, as guarantors thereunder, Bank of America, N.A., as global administrative agent, collateral agent, and Australian security trustee, and the other lenders and financial institutions party thereto. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at a floating rate, which can be either, at Mattel's option, (i) adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 2.000% per annum or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 1.000% per annum, in each case, such applicable margins to be determined based on Mattel's credit ratings. In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the Revolving Credit Facility, Mattel will be required to pay (i) an unused line fee per annum of the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee based on a percentage of the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit, and (iii) certain other customary fees and expenses of the lenders and agents. The obligations of Mattel under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by each domestic subsidiary of Mattel that guarantees any of Mattel's senior unsecured notes (collectively, the "Guarantors"). If Mattel achieves a debt rating of BBB-, Baa3, and/or BBB- (or higher) from any two of S&P, Moody's, and Fitch, respectively, and no event of default has occurred or is continuing at such time and Mattel provides a certification regarding the foregoing to the administrative agent (a "Fall-Away Event"), the obligations of Mattel under the Revolving Credit Facility will instead be required to be guaranteed by each existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiary of Mattel only to the extent such subsidiary guarantees other indebtedness of Mattel in an aggregate principal or committed amount in excess of $50 million. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by liens on substantially all of Mattel's and the Guarantors' present and after-acquired assets (subject to certain exceptions), including domestic accounts receivable, inventory, certain trademarks and patents, and certain equity interests in direct material subsidiaries of Mattel and the Guarantors. If a Fall-Away Event occurs, all collateral securing the Revolving Credit Facility will be permanently released. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Mattel's and its subsidiaries' ability to merge and consolidate with other companies, incur indebtedness, grant liens or security interests on assets, make acquisitions, loans, advances, or investments, pay dividends, sell or otherwise dispose of assets, amend organizational documents, change accounting policies or reporting practices, or enter into negative pledges with respect to assets that constitute collateral. The restrictive covenants also contain customary exceptions, including the uncapped ability to make investments and pay dividends if, in each case, the pro forma total leverage ratio after giving effect to such investment or dividend will be at least 0.25 to 1.00 inside the then-applicable total leverage ratio financial covenant level. Further, if a Fall-Away Event occurs, the restrictive covenants governing investments, dividends, negative pledges, and changes in accounting policies or reporting practices will no longer apply. The Credit Agreement requires the maintenance of (a) an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.75 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter and (b) a total leverage ratio as of the end of each fiscal quarter, not to exceed 4.50 to 1.00 as of the end of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2022, with certain specified step-downs to occur thereafter with respect to subsequent fiscal quarters. As of December 31, 2022, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2021, Mattel had no borrowings outstanding under the previous senior secured revolving credit facilities. Outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility totaled approximately $8 million as of December 31, 2022. Outstanding letters of credit under the previous senior secured revolving credit facilities totaled approximately $10 million as of December 31, 2021. To finance seasonal working capital requirements of certain foreign subsidiaries, Mattel avails itself of individual short-term credit lines. As of December 31, 2022, foreign credit lines totaled approximately $22 million. Mattel expects to extend the majority of these credit lines throughout 2023. As of December 31, 2022, Mattel was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is a material agreement, and failure to comply with its covenants may result in an event of default under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility. If Mattel were to default under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, its ability to meet its seasonal financing requirements could be adversely affected. Short-Term Borrowings As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, Mattel had no short-term borrowings outstanding. During 2022 and 2021, Mattel had average borrowings under the new and previous senior secured revolving credit facilities and other short-term borrowings of $2.9 million and $77.3 million, respectively, to help finance its seasonal working capital requirements. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under the senior secured revolving credit facilities and other short-term borrowings during 2022 and 2021 was 3.6% and 1.3%, respectively. Mattel's average foreign short-term borrowings were not material during 2022 and 2021. Long-Term Debt On March 19, 2021, Mattel issued (i) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and (ii) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% Senior Notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" and, together with the 2026 Notes, the "Notes" and each a "series" of the Notes). The 2026 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated March 19, 2021 (the "2026 Notes Indenture"), among the Company, the guarantors named therein and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated March 19, 2021 (the "2029 Notes Indenture" and, together with the 2026 Notes Indenture, the "Indentures" and each, an "Indenture"), among the Company, the guarantors named therein and the Trustee. The Notes of each series pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October 1, 2021. Mattel may redeem all or part of the 2026 Notes at any time or from time to time prior to April 1, 2023, or April 1, 2024, in the case of the 2029 Notes, at its option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a "make whole" premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest on applicable Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date. Mattel may also redeem up to 40% of the principal amount of the Notes of such series at any time or from time to time prior to April 1, 2023, in the case of the 2026 Notes, or April 1, 2024, in the case of the 2029 Notes, at its option, at a redemption price equal to 103.375%, in the case of the 2026 Notes, or 103.750%, in the case of the 2029 Notes, of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of sales of one or more equity offerings by Mattel or any direct or indirect parent of Mattel. Mattel may redeem all or part of the 2026 Notes or 2029 Notes at any time or from time to time on or after April 1, 2023, in the case of the 2026 Notes, or April 1, 2024, in the case of the 2029 notes, at its option, at a redemption price including a call premium that varies (from 0% to 1.688%, in the case of the 2026 Notes, or from 0% to 1.875%, in the case of the 2029 Notes) depending on the year of redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. The Notes of each series are Mattel's and the guarantors' senior unsecured obligations. The Notes of each series are guaranteed by Mattel's existing, and subject to certain exceptions, future wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee Mattel's senior secured revolving credit facilities or certain other indebtedness. Under the terms of the applicable Indenture, the Notes of each series rank equally in right of payment with all of Mattel's existing and future senior debt, including Mattel's Existing Notes (as defined in the Indenture) and borrowings under the senior secured revolving credit facilities, and rank senior in right of payment to Mattel's existing and future debt and other obligations that expressly provide for their subordination to the Notes. The Notes of each series are structurally subordinated to all of the existing and future liabilities, including trade payables, of Mattel's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes of each series and are effectively subordinated to Mattel's and the guarantors' existing and future senior secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt (including borrowings under the senior secured revolving credit facilities). The guarantees are, with respect to the assets of the guarantors of the Notes of each series, structurally senior to all of Mattel's existing indebtedness, future indebtedness or other liabilities that are not guaranteed by such guarantors, including Mattel's obligations under the Existing Non-Guaranteed Notes (as defined in the Indentures). The Indentures contain covenants that limit Mattel's (and some of its subsidiaries') ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other restricted payments; (iii) make investments in unrestricted subsidiaries; (iv) create liens; (v) enter into certain sale/leaseback transactions; (vi) merge or consolidate, or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of substantially all of their assets; and (vii) designate subsidiaries as unrestricted. In 2021, Mattel used the net proceeds from the issuance of the $600 million of 2026 Notes and $600 million of 2029 Notes, plus cash on hand, to redeem and retire $1.50 billion in aggregate principal amount of the 6.75% Senior Notes due 2025 and pay related prepayment premiums and transaction fees and expenses. As a result of the redemptions, Mattel incurred losses on extinguishment of debt of $101.7 million, comprised of $76.0 million of prepayment premiums and a $25.7 million write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs, which was recorded within interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. On December 30, 2022, Mattel used cash on hand to redeem and retire $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.15% Senior Notes due 2023. Mattel's long-term debt consists of the following:
