Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | DEBT Amended and Extended Credit Agreement and Term Loan Facility On June 8, 2018, the Company entered into an amended and extended credit agreement and term loan facility. The amended and extended credit agreement increased the borrowing capacity of the existing unsecured credit agreement to $300.0 million and extended the maturity date to June 8, 2023. On June 4, 2019, the Company utilized the accordion feature under the credit agreement to increase its credit borrowing capacity by $100.0 million, resulting in the available credit commitments increasing from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. The Company incurred $0.1 million in additional debt issuance costs in connection with the utilization of the accordion feature, which, in addition to the $0.9 million of remaining unamortized costs under the credit agreement, is being amortized over the remaining term of the credit agreement. There were no outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement at either December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019. Long-term Debt The Company designates debt obligations as either short-term or long-term based on maturity date at issuance, or in the case of the 2022 Senior Notes, based on the date of assumption. Total amortized cost of Long-term Debt outstanding at December 31, 2020 and 2019 was:

Term Loan Due 2023 On June 4, 2019, the Company entered into a delayed-draw term loan facility with a borrowing capacity of $50.0 million and a maturity date four years from the borrowing date (the “2023 Term Loan”). On July 5, 2019, the Company borrowed $49.9 million, net of debt issuance costs, under the 2023 Term Loan, with a final maturity date of July 5, 2023 (and a mutual option to extend the maturity date by one year). 5.000% Senior Notes Due 2022 Infinity’s liabilities at the acquisition date included $275.0 million principal amount, 5.000% Senior Notes due September 19, 2022 (the “2022 Senior Notes”). The 2022 Senior Notes were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date, $282.1 million, with the $7.1 million premium being amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining term, resulting in an effective interest rate of 4.36%. On November 30, 2018, Kemper executed a guarantee to fully and unconditionally guarantee the payment and performance obligations of the 2022 Senior Notes. NOTE 8. DEBT (Continued) 4.350% Senior Notes Due 2025 Kemper has $450.0 million aggregate principal of 4.350% senior notes due February 15, 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”) outstanding as of December 31, 2020. Kemper initially issued $250.0 million of the notes in February of 2015 and issued an additional $200.0 million of the notes in June of 2018. The additional notes are fungible with the initial notes issued in 2015, and together are treated as part of a single series for all purposes under the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes. The 2025 Senior Notes are unsecured and may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time at Kemper’s option at specified redemption prices. 2.400% Senior Notes Due 2030 On September 22, 2020, Kemper offered and sold $400.0 million aggregate principal of 2.400% senior notes due September 30, 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”). The net proceeds of issuance were $395.6 million, net of discount and transaction costs for an effective yield of 2.52%. The 2030 Senior Notes are unsecured and may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time at Kemper’s option at specified redemption prices. Kemper is using the net proceeds from the issuance for general corporate purposes. Redemption of 7.375% Subordinated Debentures Due 2054 On June 7, 2019, Kemper issued a notice of redemption for the entire $150.0 million aggregate principal outstanding of its 7.375% Subordinated Debentures due 2054 (the “7.375% Subordinated Debentures”) at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the redemption date. On July 8, 2019, Kemper completed the redemption, and the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures were repaid in full. The Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $5.8 million in its December 31, 2019 Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company used the proceeds received from Kemper’s common stock offering on June 7, 2019, as well as a portion of the proceeds from its July 5, 2019 borrowing under the 2023 Term Loan, to repay the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures. See Note 10, “Shareholders’ Equity,” for additional information regarding the common stock offering. Short-term Debt On August 14, 2020, Kemper’s subsidiary, Alliance, received approval for membership with the FHLB of San Francisco. Under its membership, Alliance may borrow from the FHLB of San Francisco through its advance program. Kemper’s subsidiaries, United Insurance, Trinity and Alliance are members of the FHLBs of Chicago, Dallas and San Francisco, respectively. As a requirement of membership in the FHLBs, United Insurance, Trinity and Alliance maintain a certain level of investment in FHLB stock. The Company periodically uses short-term FHLB borrowings for a combination of cash management and risk management purposes, in addition to long-term FHLB borrowings for spread leading purposes. There were no short-term debt advances from the FHLBs of Chicago, Dallas or San Francisco outstanding at December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
