2022 Credit Agreement and Term Loan B We have a credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions that was entered into on May 13, 2022, and was subsequently amended on August 17, 2023, December 20, 2023, March 20, 2024 and September 24, 2024 (collectively referred to herein as the "2022 Credit Agreement"). The 2022 Credit Agreement includes the following significant terms: i.provides for a senior secured initial term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $1.3 billion (the "Term Loan B"), due May 13, 2029, which is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company; as of November 30, 2024, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan B was $890.3 million; ii.provides for a maximum senior secured Revolving Credit Facility in the aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), which matures on May 13, 2027; iii.includes a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $100.0 million, which is part of, and not in addition to, the Revolving Credit Facility; iv.borrowings under the Term Loan B bear an interest rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.50% (following the repricings on March 20, 2024 and September 24, 2024 as described below) and the Revolving Credit Facility bears a leverage-based rate with various tiers between 2.75% and 3.50%; as of November 30, 2024, the interest rate was SOFR plus 2.75%; v.includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default; including restrictions on the incurrence of non-ordinary course debt, investment and dividends, subject to various exceptions; and, vi.includes a maximum quarterly leverage ratio financial covenant, with reporting requirements to our banking group at each quarter-end. On March 20, 2024, we entered the term loan market and repriced our existing Term Loan B. The repricing reduced the Term Loan B spread from a rate of SOFR plus 3.75% to SOFR plus 3.25%. On September 24, 2024, we completed our third repricing of the Term Loan B. The repricing reduced the margin from SOFR plus 3.25% to SOFR plus 2.50%, for a total reduction of 75 basis points. We primarily utilize proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility to finance working capital needs, capital improvements, quarterly cash dividends, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. As defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement, quarterly prepayments were due against the outstanding principal of the Term Loan B and were payable on the last business day of each May, August, November and February, beginning August 31, 2022, in a quarterly aggregate principal amount of $3.25 million, with the entire remaining principal amount due on May 13, 2029, the maturity date. Additional prepayments made against the Term Loan B contribute to these required quarterly payments. Due to prepayments made against the Term Loan B since August 31, 2022, the quarterly mandatory principal payment requirement has been met, and the quarterly payments of $3.25 million are no longer required. The weighted average interest rate for our outstanding debt, including the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan B, was 7.77% and 8.54% for the nine months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Debt Compliance, Outstanding Borrowings and Letters of Credit Our 2022 Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the loan agreement) no greater than 4.5. As of November 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants and other requirements set forth in the 2022 Credit Agreement. As of November 30, 2024, we had $930.3 million of debt outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan B, with varying maturities through fiscal 2029. We had approximately $345.7 million of additional credit available as of November 30, 2024. As of November 30, 2024, we had total outstanding letters of credit in the amount of $14.3 million. These letters of credit are most commonly issued in lieu of customer retention withholding payments covering warranty, performance periods and insurance collateral.

Capitalized interest for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023 relates to interest cost on the construction of the greenfield aluminum coil coating facility in Washington, Missouri. The increase for the nine months ended November 30, 2024 compared to the prior year period was due to the higher average construction work in process.
