Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Financing Agreements | Financing Agreements We have a credit agreement with a U.S. bank providing for a $35.0 million line of credit and includes up to $15.0 million for standby letters of credit. The line of credit is due on November 15, 2013. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 125 basis points to LIBOR plus 175 basis points depending on the ratio of our interest-bearing debt to EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income before income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. The effective interest rate was 1.5 percent at April 27, 2013. We are assessed a loan fee equal to 0.125 percent per annum of any non-used portion of the loan. As of April 27, 2013, there were no advances under the line of credit. The credit agreement is unsecured and requires us to be in compliance with the following financial ratios:
• | A minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2 to 1 at the end of any fiscal year. The ratio is equal to (a) EBITDA less dividends, a capital expenditure reserve of $6 million, and income tax expense, over (b) all principal and interest payments with respect to debt, excluding debt outstanding on the line of credit; and
• | A ratio of interest-bearing debt, excluding any marketing obligations, to EBITDA of less than 1 to 1 at the end of any fiscal quarter.
We have an additional credit agreement with another U.S. bank which expires on November 15, 2013 and is intended to support our credit needs outside of the United States. The facility provides for a $35.0 million line of credit and includes facilities for letters of credit and bank guarantees and to secure foreign loans for our international subsidiaries. The U.S. credit agreement is unsecured and is cross collateralized with the $35.0 million line of credit described above. It contains the same covenants as the credit agreement above. As of April 27, 2013, there were no advances under the line of credit. We were in compliance with all applicable covenants as of April 27, 2013 and April 28, 2012. The minimum fixed charge coverage ratio as of April 27, 2013 was 64-to-1, and the ratio of interest-bearing debt to EBITDA as of April 27, 2013 was 0.01-to-1.
