Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | DEBT Senior Secured Credit Facilities In September 2014, Vectrus and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vectrus Systems Corporation (VSC), entered into a senior secured credit agreement. The credit agreement was subsequently amended on December 24, 2020 and January 24, 2022 and is collectively referred to as the Prior Credit Agreement. The credit agreement consisted of a term loan (Amended Term Loan) and a $270.0 million revolving credit facility (Amended Revolver). On the Closing Date, the outstanding debt from the Amended Term Loan and the Amended Revolver, $50.2 million and $40.0 million, respectively, was repaid and related guarantees and liens were discharged and released. Repayment was made using proceeds from the Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement described below. As of December 31, 2021, the balance outstanding under the Amended Term Loan and the Amended Revolver, was $55.4 million and $50.0 million, respectively. On the Closing Date, certain of our subsidiaries, including VSC (and together with VSC, the Company Guarantor Subsidiaries), that became direct or indirect subsidiaries of Vertex Aerospace Service Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Vertex (Vertex Borrower), have provided guarantees of the indebtedness under each of: i.the First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2021 (as amended by the Amendment No. 1 to First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, and as further amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, the Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement), by and among Vertex Borrower, as borrower, Vertex Aerospace Intermediate LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, direct parent entity of Vertex Borrower and wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Vertex (Vertex Holdings), the lenders from time to time party thereto and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent; ii.the Second Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2021 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, the Vertex Second Lien Credit Agreement), Vertex Borrower, as borrower, Vertex Holdings, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent; and iii.the ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of June 29, 2018 (as amended by the First Amendment to ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2019, as further amended by the Second Amendment to ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2021, and as further amended by the Third Amendment to ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2021, as further amended by the Fourth Amendment to ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, and as further amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, the Vertex ABL Credit Agreement), by and among Vertex Borrower, Vertex Holdings, certain other subsidiaries of Vertex Borrower from time to time party thereto as co-borrowers, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Ally Bank, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the ABL Agent). On February 28, 2023, Vertex Borrower entered into a credit agreement (the 2023 Credit Agreement) among the lenders identified therein and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender and letter of credit issuer. The 2023 Credit Agreement provides for $750.0 million in senior secured financing, with a first lien on substantially all the Borrower’s assets, consisting of a $500.0 million five-year Revolving Credit Facility (2023 Revolver) and a five-year $250.0 million Term Loan. The proceeds of these Credit Facilities were used to, among other things, (i) repay the First Lien Incremental Term Tranche (as defined below), (ii) repay the entire outstanding amount of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, and (iii) repay the entire outstanding ABL Credit Facility. Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement The Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement provides for senior secured first lien term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $1,185.0 million, consisting of a $925.0 million term loan “B” tranche, (the First Lien Initial Term Tranche) and a $260.0 million incremental term loan “B” tranche (the First Lien Incremental Term Tranche and, together with the First Lien Initial Term Tranche, collectively, the First Lien Term Facility). The entire amount of the proceeds from the (i) First Lien Initial Term Tranche were previously used to finance the acquisition of certain subsidiaries of Raytheon Company, a Delaware corporation, and related transaction costs (the Sky Acquisition in December 2021). As provided in the Merger Agreement, the proceeds of the First Incremental Term Tranche were used by the Vertex Borrower to redeem all of the shares of previously issued preferred stock on the Closing Date (but prior to the Merger). The remaining First Lien Incremental Term Tranche proceeds were used to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement, and other transaction costs. Approximately $54.0 million of cash remained after funding the preferred stock redemption, repayment of the Prior Credit Agreement and other transaction costs. On February 28, 2023, the outstanding balance of the First Incremental Term Tranche of $258.7 million was repaid. The balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the First Incremental Term Tranche of $11.9 million was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The remaining loans under the First Lien Term Facility (consisting solely of the Initial Term Loan Tranche) amortize in an amount equal to approximately $2.3 million per quarter for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2023, through September 30, 2028, with the balance of $864.9 million due on December 6, 2028. The Vertex Borrower’s obligations under the First Lien Term Facility, which were assumed in the Merger, are guaranteed by Vertex Holdings and Vertex Borrower’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (including the Company Guarantor Subsidiaries, collectively, the Guarantors), subject to customary exceptions and limitations. The Vertex Borrower’s obligations under the First Lien Term Facility and the Guarantors’ obligations under the related guarantees are secured by a first-lien on substantially all of the Vertex Borrower’s and the Guarantors’ assets which exists on a pari passu basis with the lien held by the 2023 Credit Agreement lenders. The borrowings under the First Lien Initial Term Tranche bear interest at rates that, at the Vertex Borrower’s option, can be either a base rate, determined by reference to the greater of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime lending rate, or (c) an adjusted Eurodollar rate plus 1.00%, plus a margin of 2.50% to 2.75% per annum, or a Eurodollar rate, determined by reference to LIBOR, plus a margin of 3.50% to 3.75% per annum, in each case, depending on the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio of the Vertex Borrower and its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2023, the effective interest rate for the First Lien Initial Term Tranche was 9.11%. The Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative covenants. The Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement also includes negative covenants that limit, among other things, additional indebtedness, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments and advances, prepayments of debt and mergers and acquisitions. The Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the First Lien Term Facility to be in full force and effect, and a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Vertex Borrower may be required immediately to repay all amounts outstanding under the Vertex First Lien Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2023, the carrying value of the First Lien Credit Agreement was $915.8 million, excluding deferred discount and unamortized deferred financing costs of $40.8 million. The estimated fair value of the First Lien Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2023 was $910.0 million. The fair value is based on observable inputs of interest rates that are currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities for non-public debt (Level 2). Vertex Second Lien Credit Agreement The Vertex Second Lien Credit Agreement provided for senior secured second lien term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $185.0 million (the Second Lien Term Facility). The entire amount of the proceeds from the Second Lien Term Facility were previously used to finance the Sky Acquisition in December 2021. The Company voluntarily prepaid $25.0 million of the Second Lien Term Facility on December 30, 2022 (the Voluntary Prepayment). On February 28, 2023, the remaining Second Lien Term Facility balance of $160.0 million was repaid (the 2023 Payoff) and related guarantees and liens were discharged and released. The balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Second Lien Term Facility of $7.1 million was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Under the terms of the Vertex Second Lien Credit Agreement, the Vertex Borrower was required to remit a prepayment premium of $1.6 million with the 2023 Payoff which was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Vertex ABL Credit Agreement The Vertex ABL Credit Agreement provided for a senior secured revolving loan facility (the ABL Facility) of up to an aggregate amount of $200.0 million (the loans thereunder, the ABL Loans). The Vertex ABL Credit Agreement also provided for (i) a $30.0 million sublimit of availability for letters of credit, and (ii) a $10.0 million sublimit for short-term borrowings on a swingline basis. On February 28, 2023, the outstanding ABL Facility borrowings of $67.5 million were repaid and related guarantees and liens were discharged and released. The balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Vertex ABL Credit Agreement of $1.5 million which was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. 2023 Credit Agreement The 2023 Credit Agreement provides for $750.0 million in senior secured financing, with a first lien on substantially all the Borrower’s assets and consists of (a) a $500.0 million five-year Revolving Credit Facility (which includes (i) a $50.0 million sublimit of availability for letters of credit, and (ii) a $50.0 million sublimit for short-term borrowings on a swingline basis) and (b) a five-year $250.0 million Term Loan. The Term Loan portion of the 2023 Credit Agreement amortizes at approximately $1.6 million per quarter for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2023 through March 31, 2025, increasing to $3.1 million per quarter for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2025 through December 31, 2027, with the balance of $203.1 million due on February 28, 2028. The Vertex Borrower’s obligations under the 2023 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors, subject to customary exceptions and limitations. The Vertex Borrower’s obligations under the 2023 Credit Agreement and the Guarantors’ obligations under the related guarantees are secured by a first priority-lien on substantially all of the Vertex Borrower’s and the Guarantors’ assets (subject to customary exceptions and limitations) which exists on a pari passu basis with the lien held by the First Lien Credit Agreement lenders. The borrowings under the 2023 Credit Agreement bear interest at rates that, at the Vertex Borrower’s option, can be either a base rate, determined by reference to the greater of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime lending rate, or (c) an adjusted Eurodollar rate plus 1.00%, plus a margin of 1.00% to 2.25% per annum, or a Eurodollar rate, determined by reference to SOFR, plus a margin of 2.00% to 3.25% per annum, in each case, depending on the consolidated total net leverage ratio of the Vertex Borrower and its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2023, the effective interest rates for the 2023 Revolver and Term Loan portion of the 2023 Credit Agreement were 8.15% and 8.35%, respectively. Unutilized commitments under the 2023 Revolver are subject to a per annum fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% depending on the consolidated total net leverage ratio of the Vertex Borrower and its subsidiaries. The Vertex Borrower is also required to pay a letter of credit fronting fee to each letter of credit issuer equal to 0.125% per annum of the amount available to be drawn under each such letter of credit (or such other amount as may be mutually agreed by the Vertex Borrowers and the applicable letter of credit issuer), as well as a fee to all lenders equal to the applicable margin to SOFR of Revolving Credit loans times the average daily amount available to be drawn under all outstanding letters of credit. The 2023 Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, which must be accurate for the Vertex Borrower to borrow under the 2023 Credit Agreement, and affirmative covenants. The 2023 Credit Agreement also includes negative covenants that limit, among other things, additional indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments and advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions. The 2023 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring (a) the consolidated total net leverage ratio not to exceed 5.00 to 1.00 for the reporting periods ending on or after June 30, 2023, and on or prior to June 30, 2024, with further step downs thereafter, and (b) the consolidated interest coverage ratio be at least 2.00 to 1.00 commencing with the reporting period ending on June 30, 2023. The 2023 Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the 2023 Credit Agreement to be in full force and effect, and a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Borrowers may be required immediately to repay all amounts outstanding under the 2023 Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2023, there were $185.0 million of outstanding borrowings and $14.9 million of outstanding letters of credit under the 2023 Revolver. Availability under the 2023 Revolver was $300.1 million as of March 31, 2023. Unamortized deferred financing costs related to the 2023 Revolver of $4.9 million are included in other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the 2023 Revolver approximated the carrying value because the debt bears a floating interest rate. As of March 31, 2023, the carrying value of the Term Loan portion of the 2023 Credit Agreement was $250.0 million, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs of $2.5 million. The estimated fair value of the Term Loan portion of the 2023 Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2023 was $246.3 million. The fair value is based on observable inputs of interest rates that are currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities for non-public debt (Level 2). The aggregate scheduled maturities of the First Lien Credit Agreement and 2023 Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2023 are as follows:
