Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Revolving Line of Credit | L. Revolving Line of Credit During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company amended its $150.0 million credit facility agreement, which now has a term not scheduled to expire until December 16, 2027. Under the terms of the amended agreement, the Company may elect an interest rate for borrowings under the credit facility based on the applicable secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") plus 1.1%. At December 31, 2022, the applicable SOFR was 4.3%. The Company incurs an annual commitment fee of 0.2% on the unused portion of the facility and is obligated to meet certain financial covenants, which are measured using earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) based ratios. The Company’s EBITDA to interest expense ratio was 2,331.0 as of December 31, 2022, compared to a minimum allowable ratio of 2.0 and the Company’s total funded debt to EBITDA ratio was 0.0 as of December 31, 2022, compared to a maximum allowable ratio of 2.5. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company borrowed and repaid $30.0 million on the credit facility and paid a total of approximately $18,000 in related interest. There were no borrowings, repayments, or interest payments during 2021. During the year ended December 26, 2020, the Company borrowed and repaid $100.0 million on the credit facility and paid a total of $0.2 million in related interest. There were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility as of December 31, 2022. There are also certain restrictive covenants set forth in the credit agreement. Pursuant to the negative covenants, the Company has agreed that it will not: enter into any indebtedness or guarantees other than those specified by the lender, enter into any sale and leaseback transactions, merge, consolidate, or dispose of significant assets without the lender’s prior written consent, make or maintain any investments other than those permitted in the credit agreement, or enter into any transactions with affiliates outside of the ordinary course of business. In addition, the credit agreement requires the Company to obtain prior written consent from the lender on distributions on account of, or in repurchase, retirement or purchase of its capital stock or other equity interests with the exception of the following: (a) distributions of capital stock from subsidiaries to The Boston Beer Company, Inc. and Boston Beer Corporation (a subsidiary of The Boston Beer Company, Inc.), (b) repurchase from former employees of non-vested investment shares of Class A Common Stock, issued under the Employee Equity Incentive Plan, and (c) redemption of shares of Class A Common Stock as approved by the Board of Directors and payment of cash dividends to its holders of common stock. Borrowings under the credit facility may be used for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the event of a default that has not been cured, the credit facility would terminate and any unpaid principal and accrued interest would become due and payable.
