Subsidiary Guarantors - Senior Notes [Abstract] |
Senior Notes | Senior Notes On November 2, 2010, we issued $300 million in senior unsecured notes due November 2020, bearing interest at 6.625%, pursuant to an indenture dated November 2, 2010, among Rent-A-Center, Inc., its subsidiary guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, as trustee. On May 2, 2013, we issued $250 million in senior unsecured notes due May 2021, bearing interest at 4.75%, pursuant to an indenture dated May 2, 2013, among Rent-A-Center, Inc., its subsidiary guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, as trustee. On August 5, 2019, Rent-A-Center irrevocably deposited the redemption price for the 6.625% and 4.75% senior notes with the trustee, and the indentures were satisfied and discharged. The 6.625% and 4.75% senior notes were redeemed on August 15, 2019, at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. As a result, Rent-A-Center and its subsidiary guarantors were released from their respective obligations under the 6.625% and 4.75% senior notes as of August 5, 2019. As of December 31, 2018, we had $540.0 million in senior notes outstanding, net of unamortized issuance costs. In connection with redeeming the senior unsecured notes, we recorded a write-down of previously unamortized debt issuance costs of approximately $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2019.
