Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Lines of Credit | Note 7 – Lines of Credit Since 1998, the Company’s wholly owned Japanese subsidiary, STAAR Japan, has had an agreement with Mizuho Bank which provides for borrowings of up to 500,000,000 Yen, at an interest rate equal to the uncollateralized overnight call rate (approximately 0.06% as of July 2, 2021) plus a 0.50% spread, and may be renewed quarterly (the current line expires on August 21, 2021). The credit facility is not collateralized. The Company had 142,500,000 Yen outstanding on the line of credit as of July 2, 2021 and January 1, 2021 (approximately $1,280,000 and $1,379,000 based on the foreign exchange rates on July 2, 2021 and January 1, 2021, respectively), which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity and market interest rates of the line of credit. In case of default, the interest rate will be increased to 14% per annum. There was 357,500,000 Yen available for borrowing as of July 2, 2021 and January 1, 2021 (approximately $3,210,000 and $3,459,000 based on the foreign exchange rate on July 2, 2021 and January 1, 2021, respectively). At maturity on August 21, 2021, the Company expects to renew this line of credit for an additional three months, with similar terms. In September 2013, the Company’s wholly owned Swiss subsidiary, STAAR Surgical AG, entered into a framework agreement for loans (“framework agreement”) with Credit Suisse (the “Bank”). The framework agreement provides for borrowings of up to 1,000,000 CHF (Swiss Francs) (approximately $1,100,000 at the rate of exchange on January 1, 2021), to be used for working capital purposes. Accrued interest and 0.25% commissions on average outstanding borrowings is payable quarterly and the interest rate will be determined by the Bank based on the then prevailing market conditions at the time of borrowing. The framework agreement is automatically renewed on an annual basis based on the same terms assuming there is no default. The framework agreement may be terminated by either party at any time in accordance with its general terms and conditions. The framework agreement is not collateralized and contains certain conditions such as providing the Bank with audited financial statements annually and notice of significant events or conditions, as defined in the framework agreement. The Bank may also declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable upon a change of control or a “material qualification” in STAAR Surgical independent auditors’ report, as defined. There were no borrowings outstanding as of January 1, 2021. Given its immaterial nature and the Company’s existing cash resources, during the second quarter of 2021, the Company cancelled the framework agreement. The Company is in compliance with covenants of its credit facilities and lines of credit as of July 2, 2021.
