Secured Revolving Credit Facility
As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $70.0 million outstanding borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility, exclusive of $4.4 million of outstanding letters of credit. As of September 30, 2023, there was approximately $775.6 million available for future borrowing. All outstanding borrowings under the Company’s secured revolving credit facility are classified as non-current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets because of the contractual repayment terms under the credit facility.
The Company’s secured revolving credit facility provides for an aggregate credit line of $850 million which includes a $750 million U.S. dollar facility and a $100 million multicurrency facility. The credit facility matures in April 2027. The facility contains covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things: (i) create or incur liens, debt, guarantees or other investments, (ii) engage in mergers and consolidations, (iii) pay dividends or other distributions to, and redemptions and repurchases from, equity holders, (iv) prepay, redeem or repurchase subordinated or junior debt, (v) amend organizational documents, and (vi) engage in certain transactions with affiliates.
On October 17, 2023, Carter’s Holdings B.V., a subsidiary of the Company, was released from its obligations under the secured revolving credit facility.
As of September 30, 2023, the interest rate margins applicable to the secured revolving credit facility were 1.125% for adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) loans and 0.125% for base rate loans. As of September 30, 2023, U.S. dollar borrowings outstanding under the secured revolving credit facility accrued interest at an adjusted term SOFR rate plus the applicable margin, which resulted in a weighted-average borrowing rate of 6.55%. There were no foreign currency borrowings outstanding on September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with its financial and other covenants under the secured revolving credit facility.
