Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Borrowing Facilities | Note 7 – Borrowing Facilities On July 20, 2018, the Company entered into a $650 million credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and a L/C Issuer. The Credit Agreement is comprised of a 5-year $500 million revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility) and a 5-year $150 million term loan facility (the Term Loan Facility), both with a maturity date of July 20, 2023. The Term Loan Facility proceeds were used to (i) refinance a portion of existing indebtedness and terminate all commitments under the Company’s prior $430 million credit agreement and (ii) pay the fees, costs and expenses associated with the foregoing and the negotiation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility is available for general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement includes an accordion feature pursuant to which the Company is permitted to add one or more incremental term loan and/or increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount not exceeding $275 million, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Term Loan Facility is payable in quarterly principal installments of $1.9 million with the balance payable on July 20, 2023. Interest on outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement (other than swingline loans) accrues, at the Company’s option, at (a) the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.0% to 2.0% or (b) the base rate plus 0.0% to 1.0%. As of September 30, 2019, $146.3 million of the outstanding debt under the Credit Agreement is effectively at a fixed interest rate of 2.928% as a result of a $146.3 million notional interest rate swap contract discussed in Note 16. A commitment fee of 0.20% to 0.30% per annum (based on the debt to EBITDA ratio) on the unused portion of the revolving credit line is payable quarterly in arrears. The Credit Agreement is generally secured by a pledge of (a) all the capital stock of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of its directly owned foreign subsidiaries, (b) all or substantially all other personal property of Benchmark and its domestic subsidiaries (including, but not limited to, accounts receivable, contract assets, inventory, intellectual property and fixed assets of Benchmark and its domestic subsidiaries), in each case, subject to customary exceptions and limitations, and (c) all proceeds and products of the property and assets described in (a) and (b) above. The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants as to interest coverage and debt leverage, and certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional debt and liens, pay dividends, repurchase shares, sell assets and merge or consolidate with other persons. Amounts due under the Credit Agreement could be accelerated upon specified events of default, including a failure to pay amounts due, breach of a covenant, material inaccuracy of a representation, or occurrence of bankruptcy or insolvency, subject, in some cases, to cure periods. As of September 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all of these covenants and restrictions. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $146.3 million in borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and $3.0 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company had $497.0 million available for future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s Thailand subsidiary had a multi-purpose credit facility with Kasikornbank Public Company Limited (Thai Credit Facility) that provided for 350 million Thai baht (approximately $11.4 million) working capital availability. The Thai Credit Facility was secured by land and buildings in Thailand owned by the Company’s Thailand subsidiary. This Thai Credit Facility expired in October 2019 and was not renewed. As of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no working capital borrowings outstanding under the facility.
