Long-Term Debt |
Long-Term Debt | 12. Long-Term Debt On July 30, 2019, we entered into a Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “New Facility”), which amends and restates in its entirety our prior Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of December 22, 2015. The New Facility, which terminates on July 30, 2024, provides us with revolving loan commitments that total $400 million (of which $40 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit). The New Facility contains a commitment increase feature that could provide for an additional $200 million in available credit upon our request and subject to the participating lenders electing to increase their commitments or new lenders being added to the New Facility. At December 31, 2019, we had net availability for borrowings of $90.6 million, based on an outstanding debt balance of $290.0 million and $19.4 million in standby letters of credit. During fiscal 2019, we utilized the New Facility to fund the Acquisition (see Note 2 for further discussion of the Acquisition). During fiscal years 2019, 2018 and 2017, we utilized our previous credit facility to fund a portion of our stock repurchases. We are subject to certain financial covenants under the New Facility requiring us to maintain (i) a maximum “Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio” of 4.75 and (ii) a minimum EBITDAR to interest and rent expense ratio (“EBITDAR Ratio”) of 1.9, as well as customary events of default that, if triggered, could results in acceleration of the maturity of the New Facility. The New Facility also limits cash distributions with respect to our equity interests, such as cash dividends and share repurchases, based on a defined ratio, and also sets forth negative covenants that restrict indebtedness, liens, investments, sales of assets, fundamental changes and other matters. Borrowings under the New Facility bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) the adjusted LIBO Rate (as customarily defined) (the “Adjusted LIBO Rate”) plus a margin that is based on our net adjusted leverage ratio, or (ii) the sum of (a) the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in effect in the United States, (2) the greater of the rate calculated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as the effective federal funds rate or the rate that is published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as an overnight bank funding rate, in either case plus 0.5%, and (3) the one-month Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 1.0%, plus (b) a margin that is based on our net adjusted leverage ratio. Letters of credit issued under the New Facility bear fees that are equivalent to the interest rate margin that is applicable to revolving loans that bear interest at the adjusted LIBO Rate plus other customary fees charged by the issuing bank. Under the New Facility, we paid certain customary loan origination fees and will pay an unused fee on the unused portion of the New Facility that is also based on our Net Adjusted Leverage Ratio. Our Net Adjusted Leverage and EBITDAR Ratios were 3.8 and 2.5, respectively, at December 31, 2019, and we were in compliance with all covenants in effect at that date. Our obligations under the New Facility are unsecured. Certain of our material subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the New Facility. The New Facility will be used for our general corporate purposes, including for the issuance of standby letters of credit to support our self-insurance programs, and to fund dividends, stock repurchases and permitted acquisitions. We capitalized interest expense related to new restaurant openings and major remodels totaling $0.6 million, $0.4 million and $0.7 million in fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
