The carrying value of the Corporation’s outstanding variable-rate, long-term debt obligations at April 1, 2023, was $108 million, which approximated fair value. The fair value of the fixed rate notes was estimated based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 2) to be $101 million at April 1, 2023.

As of April 1, 2023, the Corporation’s revolving credit facility borrowings were under the amended and restated credit agreement entered into on June 14, 2022, as further amended on March 14, 2023, with a scheduled maturity of June 2027. The Corporation deferred the related debt issuance costs, which are classified as assets, and is amortizing them over the term of the credit agreement. The current portion of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million is the amount to be amortized over the next twelve months, based on the current credit agreement, and is reflected in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The long-term portion of debt issuance costs of $1.1 million is reflected in "Other Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of April 1, 2023, there was $108 million outstanding under the $400 million revolving credit facility. The entire amount drawn under the revolving credit facility is considered long-term as the Corporation assumes no obligation to repay any of the amounts borrowed in the next twelve months. Based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, the Corporation can access the full remaining $292 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

In addition to cash flows from operations, the revolving credit facility under the credit agreement is the primary source of daily operating capital for the Corporation and provides additional financial capacity for capital expenditures, repurchases of common stock, payment of dividends, and investments in strategic initiatives.

In addition to the revolving credit facility, the Corporation also has $100 million of borrowings outstanding under private placement note agreements entered into on May 31, 2018. Under the agreements, the Corporation issued $50 million of seven-year fixed-rate notes with an interest rate of 4.22 percent, due May 31, 2025, and $50 million of ten-year fixed-rate notes with an interest rate of 4.40 percent, due May 31, 2028. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the private placement note agreements, which are classified as a reduction of long-term debt, and is amortizing them over the terms of the private placement note agreements. The deferred debt issuance costs do not reduce the amount owed by the Corporation under the terms of the private placement note agreements. As of April 1, 2023, the deferred debt issuance costs balance of $0.3 million related to the private placement note agreements is reflected in "Long-Term Debt" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In connection with the Corporation’s planned acquisition of Kimball, the Corporation obtained new committed financing and amended its revolving credit facility as follows:

on March 7, 2023, in connection with the Merger Agreement with Kimball, the Corporation entered into a commitment letter with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and U.S. Bank, National Association to provide a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $440 million;
on March 14, 2023, the Corporation entered into an amendment to its revolving credit facility. The amendment, among other things, makes $160 million of the revolving credit facility available for the consummation of the merger, subject
to the satisfaction of certain limited conditions (including the consummation of the merger in accordance with the Merger Agreement);
on March 31, 2023, the Corporation entered into a term loan credit agreement that provides for an unsecured, delayed draw, term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $280 million. This loan may be used by the Corporation solely for the consummation of the merger, subject to the satisfaction of certain limited conditions (including the consummation of the merger in accordance with the Merger Agreement); and
on March 31, 2023, the 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility was extinguished and replaced by the amended revolving credit facility and new term loan credit facility.

The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the acquisition financing, which are classified as a reduction of long-term debt, and will amortize them over the loan terms of the acquisition financing in the event that the financing is drawn upon. As of April 1, 2023, the deferred debt issuance costs balance of $1.5 million related to the acquisition financing is reflected in "Long-Term Debt" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See "Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the acquisition of Kimball.

The credit agreements and private placement notes all contain financial and non-financial covenants. The covenants under the agreements are substantially the same. Non-compliance with covenants under the agreements could prevent the Corporation from being able to access further borrowings, require immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding, and/or increase the cost of borrowing.

Covenants require maintenance of financial ratios as of the end of any fiscal quarter, including:

a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 4.0 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters to (b) the sum of consolidated interest charges; and
a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not greater than 3.5 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) the quarter-end consolidated funded indebtedness to (b) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters.

The most restrictive of the financial covenants is the consolidated leverage ratio requirement of 3.5 to 1.0. Under the credit agreement, consolidated EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization of intangibles, as well as non-cash items that increase or decrease net income. As of April 1, 2023, the Corporation was below the maximum allowable ratio and was in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement. The Corporation expects to remain in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement over the next twelve months.

In the event the private placement notes are extinguished, the revolving credit facility and term loan credit agreement contain provisions to allow for certain covenant adjustments providing the Corporation additional financial flexibility. The Corporation retains the right to repay the private notes upon executing defined notice requirements and delivering any applicable make-whole payments related to current interest conditions. As of April 1, 2023, the make-whole provision on these notes would be an incremental cost to the Corporation of $0.7 million.
