Senior Notes
On August 2, 2023, the Company issued and sold (i) $800,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.650% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), (ii) $800,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.600% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and (iii) $550,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.850% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes” and, together with the 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were sold in a registered public offering pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3, which became effective upon filing, and a Prospectus Supplement dated July 19, 2023, to a Prospectus dated July 17, 2023.
The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture, dated as of August 2, 2023 (the “Base Indenture”), between Concentrix and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2026 Notes, a second supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2028 Notes, and a third supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2033 Notes (such supplemental indentures, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Indenture contains customary covenants and restrictions, including covenants that limit Concentrix Corporation’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to create or incur liens on shares of stock of certain subsidiaries or on principal properties, engage in sale/leaseback transactions or, with respect to Concentrix Corporation, consolidate or merge with, or sell or lease substantially all its assets to, another person. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default.
The Company incurred debt discount and issuance costs of approximately $19,300 associated with the issuance of the Senior Notes during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023, which costs are being amortized through the applicable maturity dates of the Senior Notes.
Restated Credit Facility
On April 21, 2023, the Company entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A., to amend and restate the Company’s Prior Credit Facility (as amended and restated, the “Restated Credit Facility”).
The Restated Credit Facility provides for the extension of a senior unsecured revolving credit facility not to exceed an aggregate principal amount of $1,042,500. The Restated Credit Facility also provides for a senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed approximately $2,144,700 (the “Term Loan”), of which $1,850,000 was incurred upon the amendment and approximately $294,702 was drawn on a delayed draw basis on the Closing Date. Aggregate borrowing capacity under the Restated Credit Facility may be increased by up to an additional $500,000 by increasing the amount of the revolving credit facility or by incurring additional term loans, in each case subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Restated Credit Facility, including the receipt of additional commitments for such increase.
As of November 30, 2023, the outstanding principal balance on the Term Loan was $1,950,000 due to principal payments made subsequent to the Closing Date. During fiscal year 2024, the Company voluntarily prepaid $450,000 of the principal balance on the Term Loan, without penalty, resulting in an outstanding balance at November 30, 2024 of $1,500,000.
The maturity date of the Restated Credit Facility is December 27, 2026, subject, in the case of the revolving credit facility, to two one-year extensions upon the Company’s prior notice to the lenders and the agreement of the lenders to extend such maturity date. Due to the voluntary prepayments previously described, no principal payment is required until the outstanding principal amount is due in full on the maturity date.
Borrowings under the Restated Credit Facility bear interest, in the case of SOFR rate loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (but not less than 0.0%), plus an applicable margin, which ranges from 1.125% to 2.000%, based on the credit ratings of the Company’s senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness for borrowed money plus a credit spread adjustment to the SOFR rate of 0.10%. Borrowings under the Restated Credit Facility that are base rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate (but not less than 1.0%) equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Restated Credit Facility) in effect on such day, (B) the NYFRB Rate (as defined in the Restated Credit Facility) in effect on such day plus ½ of 1.0%, and (C) the adjusted one-month term SOFR rate plus 1.0% per annum, plus (ii) an applicable margin, which ranges from 0.125% to 1.000%, based on the credit ratings of the Company’s senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness for borrowed money.
The Restated Credit Facility contains certain loan covenants that are customary for credit facilities of this type and that restrict the ability of Concentrix Corporation and its subsidiaries to take certain actions, including the creation of liens, mergers or consolidations, changes to the nature of their business, and, solely with respect to subsidiaries of Concentrix Corporation, incurrence of indebtedness. In addition, the Restated Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter, (i) a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Restated Credit Facility) not to exceed 3.75 to 1.0 (or for certain periods following certain qualified acquisitions, including the Webhelp Combination, 4.25 to 1.0) and (ii) a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Restated Credit Facility) equal to or greater than 3.00 to 1.0. The Restated Credit Facility also contains various customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults under certain other indebtedness, and a change of control of Concentrix Corporation.
None of Concentrix’ subsidiaries guarantees the obligations under the Restated Credit Facility.
Prior to entering into the Amendment Agreement, obligations under the Company’s Prior Credit Facility were secured by substantially all of the assets of Concentrix Corporation and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries and were guaranteed by certain of its U.S. subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Prior Credit Facility bore interest, in the case of term or daily SOFR loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (but not less than 0.0%), plus an adjustment of between 0.10% and 0.25% depending on the interest period of each SOFR loan, plus an applicable
margin, which ranged from 1.25% to 2.00%, based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Borrowings under the Prior Credit Facility that were base rate loans bore interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the greatest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus ½ of 1.00%, (b) the rate of interest last publicly announced by Bank of America as its “prime rate” and (c) the term SOFR rate plus 1.00%, plus (ii) an applicable margin, which ranged from 0.25% to 1.00%, based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. From August 31, 2022 through the date of the Amendment Agreement, the outstanding principal of the term loans under the Prior Credit Facility was payable in quarterly installments of $26,250.
During fiscal year 2023, the Company voluntarily prepaid $25,000 of the principal balance on the term loans under the Prior Credit Facility, without penalty.
As of November 30, 2024 and 2023, no amounts were outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.
Securitization Facility
On April 25, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the Securitization Facility to (i) increase the commitment of the lenders to provide available borrowings from up to $500,000 to up to $600,000, (ii) extend the termination date of the Securitization Facility from July 5, 2024 to April 24, 2026, and (iii) amend the interest rate margins, such that borrowings under the Securitization Facility that are funded by certain lenders through such lenders’ issuance of commercial paper bear interest at the applicable commercial paper rate plus a spread of 0.80% and, otherwise, at a bank rate that includes a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (subject to a SOFR related adjustment of 0.10%), plus a spread of 0.90%.
Under the Securitization Facility, Concentrix Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Originators”) sell or otherwise transfer all of their accounts receivable to a special purpose bankruptcy-remote subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”) that grants a security interest in the receivables to the lenders in exchange for available borrowings of up to $600,000. The amount received under the Securitization Facility is recorded as debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Borrowing availability under the Securitization Facility may be limited by the Company’s accounts receivable balances, changes in the credit ratings of the clients comprising the receivables, client concentration levels in the receivables, and certain characteristics of the accounts receivable being transferred (including factors tracking performance of the accounts receivable over time).
The Securitization Facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio covenant that is consistent with the Restated Credit Facility and customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults under certain other indebtedness, a change in control of Concentrix Corporation, and certain events negatively affecting the overall credit quality of the transferred accounts receivable.
The Borrower’s sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital contributions of the receivables and related security from the Originators and the subsequent retransfer of or granting of a security interest in such receivables and related security to the administrative agent under the Securitization Facility for the benefit of the lenders. The Borrower is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled, upon its liquidation, to be satisfied out of the Borrower’s assets prior to any assets or value in the Borrower becoming available to the Borrower’s equity holders, and the assets of the Borrower are not available to pay creditors of the Company and its subsidiaries.
On January 14, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to the Securitization Facility to increase the commitment of the lenders to provide available borrowings from up to $600,000 to up to $700,000 and extend the termination date of the Securitization Facility from April 24, 2026 to January 14, 2027.
Sellers’ Note
On September 25, 2023, as part of the consideration for the Webhelp Combination, Concentrix Corporation issued the Sellers’ Note in the aggregate principal amount of €700,000 to certain Sellers. The stated rate of interest associated with the Sellers’ Note is two percent (2.00%) per annum, which is below the Company’s expected borrowing rate. As a result, the Company discounted the Sellers’ Note by €31,500 using an approximate 4.36% imputed annual interest rate. This discounting resulted in an initial value of €668,500 or $711,830. The discounted value is being amortized into interest expense over the two-year term. All stated principal and accrued interest will be due and payable on September 25, 2025.
Amounts outstanding under the Sellers’ Note have been classified as long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet based on the Company’s ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis as of November 30, 2024.
