On April 25, 2023, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to refinance its senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). Under the terms of the Credit Agreement the borrowing capacity is $750.0 million. The Facility matures in April 2028. In connection with the refinancing, the Company incurred approximately $2.5 million in financing costs which were deferred and are amortized over the life of the Facility.

Borrowings under the Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, for Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") borrowings at (i) an Adjusted Term SOFR rate (subject to a 0.00% floor), where such “Adjusted Term SOFR” rate is equal to the Term SOFR rate for the applicable interest period plus 0.10%, plus the Applicable Margin or (ii) for base rate borrowings, the greatest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) the Adjusted Term SOFR rate (subject to a 0.00% floor) for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, in each case plus the Applicable Margin. The “Applicable Margin” initially was 1.125% for SOFR rate borrowings and 0.125% for base rate borrowings, and after September 30, 2023, can fluctuate, determined by reference to the more favorable to the Company of its (i) public debt rating and (ii) consolidated leverage ratio, as specified in the Credit Agreement. Up to $50.0 million of the Facility may be used for letters of credit. The Credit Agreement enables the Company, from time to time, to add term loans or to increase the revolving credit commitment in an aggregate amount not to exceed $500.0 million.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that place restrictions on, among other things, the incurrence of debt by any subsidiaries of the Company, granting of liens and sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

 

As of September 30, 2024, total borrowings under the Facility were $105.0 million, which approximated fair value. Outstanding letters of credit reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Facility. As of September 30, 2024, there were no issued letters of credit under the Facility, resulting in undrawn availability under the Facility of $645.0 million. The weighted average interest rate for the Facility was 6.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

In 2017, the Company issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.95% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2027. The interest rate on these senior notes may be increased by 0.25% each time a credit rating applicable to the notes is downgraded. The maximum rate is 5.95%. The effective interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was 4.0% inclusive of an approximately 0.25% benefit of treasury locks. Based on quoted prices the fair value of the senior unsecured notes due in 2027 was $392.7 million at September 30, 2024.

In 2015, the Company issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.7% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2025. In accordance with ASC 470-10-45-14, the Company classified the 4.7% Senior Unsecured Notes due in August 2025 as long-term debt at September 30, 2024 due to the Company’s intent to refinance the senior notes on a long term basis and the Company’s ability to consummate such refinancing as the Company has the ability to draw on the Credit Agreement for the full amount of the Company’s obligations under the senior notes. Such borrowings would be on terms exceeding one year as the Credit Agreement matures in April 2028 and the Credit Agreement is not unilaterally cancellable by the lender. The interest rate on these senior notes may be increased by 0.25% each time a credit rating applicable to the notes is downgraded. The maximum rate is 6.7%. The effective interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was 4.9%. Based on quoted prices, the fair value of the senior unsecured notes due in 2025 was $299.6 million at September 30, 2024.
