These debt issuance costs have been deferred and are classified in assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 835.
Senior Secured Notes ​ In August 2020, the Company completed a private debt offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The terms of the Notes are governed by an indenture (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”). The net proceeds of the Notes have been used (i) to repay the $300 million that was outstanding under the Company’s prior term loan facility due 2022 (the “Term Loan”), (ii) to pay related fees and expenses and (iii) for general corporate purposes. ​ The Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.875% per year payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing on February 15, 2021. ​ The Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior-priority secured basis by the Company’s current and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee any of the Company’s credit facilities, including the Company’s ABL facility (the “ABL Facility”) pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement, or certain future capital markets indebtedness of the Company or guarantors. ​ The Notes and the related guarantees are secured by (i) first priority liens on the Company’s Cash Flow Priority Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), and (ii) a second-priority lien on the Company’s ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in the Indenture), in each case subject to permitted liens described in the Indenture. ​ In connection with the issuance of the Notes and execution of the Indenture, the Company and the Guarantors entered into a pledge and security agreement (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Collateral Agent. ​ The Notes are subject to the terms of the intercreditor agreement which governs the relative rights of the secured parties in respect of the ABL Facility and the Notes (the “Intercreditor Agreement”). The Intercreditor Agreement restricts the actions permitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral on behalf of the holders of the Notes. The Notes are also subject to the terms of the LVMH Note subordination agreement which governs the relative rights of the secured parties in respect of the LVMH Note, the ABL Facility and the Notes. ​ At any time prior to August 15, 2022, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date plus a “make-whole” premium, as described in the Indenture. On or after August 15, 2022, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time and from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to August 15, 2022, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to August 15, 2022, during any twelve month period, the Company may redeem up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. ​ If the Company experiences a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture), the Company is required to offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase. ​ The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, incur restrictions on the ability of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries that are not guarantors to pay dividends or make certain other payments, create or incur certain liens, sell assets and subsidiary stock, impair the security interests, transfer all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or enter into merger or consolidation transactions, and enter into transactions with affiliates. The Indenture provides for customary events of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others, nonpayment of principal or interest, breach of other agreements in the Indenture, failure to pay certain other indebtedness, failure of certain guarantees to be enforceable, failure to perfect certain collateral securing the Notes failure to pay certain final judgments, and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. ​ The Company incurred debt issuance costs totaling $8.5 million related to the Notes that will be amortized over the term of the Notes. In accordance with ASC 835, the debt issuance costs have been deferred and are presented as a contra-liability, offsetting the outstanding balance of the Notes, and are amortized over the remaining life of the Notes. In addition, the Company had unamortized debt issuance costs of $6.1 million associated with the Term Loan. Upon repayment of the Term Loan, these debt issuance costs were fully extinguished and charged to interest expense in the Company’s results of operations. ​ Second Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement ​ In August 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., Riviera Sun, Inc., CK Outerwear, LLC, AM Retail Group, Inc. and The Donna Karan Company Store LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into the second amended and restated credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with the Lenders named therein and with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The ABL Credit Agreement is a five year senior secured credit facility subject to a springing maturity date if, subject to certain conditions, the LVMH Note is not refinanced or repaid prior to the date that is 91 days prior to the date of any relevant payment thereunder. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up to $650 million. The Company and its subsidiaries, G-III Apparel Canada ULC, Gabrielle Studio, Inc., Donna Karan International Inc. and Donna Karan Studio LLC (the “Guarantors”), are Loan Guarantors under the ABL Credit Agreement. ​ The ABL Credit Agreement refinanced, amended and restated the Amended Credit Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2016 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to August 7, 2020, the “Prior Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers and the Loan Guarantors (each as defined therein) party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as the administrative agent thereunder. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for borrowings of up to $650 million and was due to expire in December 2021. The ABL Credit Agreement extended the maturity date to August 2025, subject to a springing maturity date if, subject to certain conditions, the LVMH Note is not refinanced or repaid prior to the date that is 91 days prior to the date of any relevant payment thereunder. ​ Amounts available under the ABL Credit Agreement are subject to borrowing base formulas and overadvances as specified in the ABL Credit Agreement. Borrowings bear interest, at the Borrowers’ option, at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.25% or an alternate base rate margin of 0.75% to 1.25% (defined as the greatest of (i) the “prime rate” of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from time to time, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) the LIBOR rate for a borrowing with an interest period of one month) plus 1.00%, with the applicable margin determined based on Borrowers’ availability under the ABL Credit Agreement. The ABL Credit Agreement is secured by specified assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors. In addition to paying interest on any outstanding borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the credit agreement with respect to the unutilized commitments. The commitment fee accrues at a tiered rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitments when the average usage is less than 50% of the total available commitments and decreases to 0.35% per annum on the average daily amount of the available commitments when the average usage is greater than or equal to 50% of the total available commitments. ​ The revolving credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability, subject to specified exceptions, to incur additional debt; incur liens; sell or dispose of certain assets; merge with other companies; liquidate or dissolve the Company; acquire other companies; make loans, advances, or guarantees; and make certain investments. In certain circumstances, the revolving credit facility also requires the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, not less than 1.00 to 1.00 for each period of twelve consecutive fiscal months of the Company. As of October 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. ​ As of October 31, 2021, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Credit Agreement. The ABL credit agreement also includes amounts available for letters of credit. As of October 31, 2021, there were outstanding trade and standby letters of credit amounting to $13.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively. ​ At the date of the refinancing of the Prior Credit Agreement, the Company had $3.3 million of unamortized debt issuance costs remaining from the Prior Credit Agreement. The Company extinguished and charged to interest expense $0.4 million of the prior debt issuance costs and incurred new debt issuance costs totaling $5.1 million related to the ABL Credit Agreement. The Company has a total of $8.0 million debt issuance costs related to the ABL Credit Agreement. As permitted under ASC 835, the debt issuance costs have been deferred and are presented as an asset which is amortized ratably over the term of the ABL Credit Agreement. ​ LVMH Note ​ As a portion of the consideration for the acquisition of DKI, the Company issued to LVMH a junior lien secured promissory note in the principal amount of $125.0 million that bears interest at the rate of 2% per year. $75.0 million of the principal amount of the LVMH Note is due and payable on June 1, 2023 and $50.0 million of such principal amount is due and payable on December 1, 2023. ​ ASC 820 requires the note to be recorded at fair value at issuance. As a result, the Company recorded a $40.0 million debt discount. This discount is being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the LVMH Note. ​ Unsecured Loans ​ During fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021, T.R.B International SA (“TRB”), a subsidiary of Vilebrequin, borrowed funds under several unsecured loans. A portion of the unsecured loans were to provide funding for operations in the normal course of business, while other unsecured loans were various European state backed loans as part of COVID-19 relief programs. In the aggregate, TRB is currently required to make quarterly installment payments of €0.2 million under these loans. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the unsecured loans accrues at a fixed rate equal to 0% to 2.0% per annum, payable on either a quarterly or monthly basis. As of October 31, 2021, TRB had an aggregate outstanding balance of €7.3 million ($8.4 million) under these unsecured loans. ​ Overdraft Facilities ​ During fiscal 2021, TRB entered into several overdraft facilities that allow for applicable bank accounts to be in a negative position up to a certain maximum overdraft. TRB entered into an uncommitted overdraft facility with HSBC Bank allowing for a maximum overdraft of €5 million. Interest on drawn balances accrues at a rate equal to the Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin of 1.75% per annum, payable quarterly. The facility may be cancelled at any time by TRB or HSBC Bank. As part of a COVID-19 relief program, TRB and its subsidiaries have also entered into several state backed overdraft facilities with UBS Bank in Switzerland for an aggregate of CHF 4.7 million at varying interest rates of 0% to 0.5%. As of October 31, 2021, TRB had an aggregate of €2.5 million ($2.8 million) drawn under these facilities.
