Revolving Credit Facilities [Abstract] |
Revolving Credit Facilities | 10. Revolving Credit Facilities We have our U.S. revolving credit facility agreement (the “U.S. revolving credit facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association, dated August 4, 2006, as amended. The U.S. revolving credit facility has a final maturity of April 15, 2016 and maximum available credit of $447.5 million. The U.S. revolving credit facility also includes an additional $75 million uncommitted accordion credit facility, which permits us to increase the maximum available credit up to $522.5 million. On June 28, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our U.S. revolving credit facility, which became effective on that date and pursuant to which certain components of the borrowing base calculation and excess liquidity calculation were adjusted. The most significant of the changes included in the amendment is the addition of PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) as a lender and their additional loan commitment of $25.0 million, which increased the maximum availability of the U.S. revolving credit facility to $447.5 million. The new terms of this amended agreement are described in this footnote. In conjunction with this amendment, we incurred $0.1 million of debt fees that were capitalized and are being amortized over the amended debt term. On March 29, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our U.S. revolving credit facility, which became effective on that date and pursuant to which certain components of the borrowing base calculation and excess liquidity calculation were adjusted. The most significant of the changes included in the amendment are extending the final maturity of the U.S. revolving credit facility, increasing the maximum available credit under the facility and adjusting the excess availability threshold calculation. In conjunction with this amendment, we incurred $2.8 million of debt fees that were capitalized and are being amortized over the amended debt term. On March 27, 2013, we concluded the 2013 Rights Offering. The 2013 Rights Offering was fully subscribed and resulted in net proceeds of approximately $38.6 million. Remaining expenses to be paid related to the 2013 Rights Offering as of January 4, 2014 totaled $0.1 million. We issued 22.9 million shares of stock to our stockholders in conjunction with the 2013 Rights Offering. On July 22, 2011, we concluded an offering of our common stock to our stockholders (the “2011 Rights Offering”). The 2011 Rights Offering was fully subscribed and resulted in net proceeds of approximately $58.0 million. We issued 28.6 million shares of stock to our stockholders in conjunction with the 2011 Rights Offering. As of January 4, 2014, we had outstanding borrowings of $207.9 million and excess availability of $44.5 million under the terms of our U.S. revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the U.S. revolving credit facility was 3.7% at January 4, 2014. As of December 29, 2012, we had outstanding borrowings of $169.5 million and excess availability of $86.0 million under the terms of our U.S. revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the U.S. revolving credit facility was 4.1% at December 29, 2012. As of January 4, 2014 and December 29, 2012, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.6 million and $4.5 million, respectively, for the purposes of securing collateral requirements under casualty insurance programs and for guaranteeing lease and certain other obligations. The $3.6 million in outstanding letters of credit as of January 4, 2014 does not include an additional $1.5 million fully collateralized letter of credit securing certain insurance obligations that was issued outside of the U.S. revolving credit facility. As of January 4, 2014, our U.S. revolving credit facility, as amended, contains customary negative covenants and restrictions for asset based loans, including a requirement that we maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 in the event our excess availability falls below the greater of $31.8 million or the amount equal to 12.5% of the lesser of the borrowing base or $447.5 million (the “Excess Availability Threshold”). The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as EBITDA divided by the sum of cash payments for income taxes, interest expense, cash dividends, principal payments on debt, and capital expenditures. EBITDA is defined as BlueLinx Corporation’s net income before interest and tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and other non-cash charges. The fixed charge coverage ratio requirement only applies to us when excess availability under our amended U.S. revolving credit facility is less than the Excess Availability Threshold on any date. As of January 4, 2014 and through the time of the filing of this Form 10-K, we were in compliance with all covenants under the U.S. revolving credit facility. We are required to maintain the Excess Availability Threshold in order to avoid being required to meet certain financial ratios and triggering additional limits on capital expenditures. Our lowest level of fiscal month-end availability in the last three years as of January 4, 2014 was $44.5 million, which is the excess availability as of that date. We do not anticipate our excess availability in fiscal 2014 will drop below the Excess Availability Threshold. Should our excess availability fall below the Excess Availability Threshold on any date, however, we would not meet the required fixed charge coverage ratio covenant with our current operating results. In the event that excess availability falls below $37.1 million or the amount equal to 15% of the lesser of the borrowing base or $447.5 million, the U.S. revolving credit facility gives the lenders the right to dominion of our bank accounts. This would not make the underlying debt callable by the lender and may not change our ability to borrow on the U.S. revolving credit facility. However, we would be required to reclassify the “Long-term debt” to “Current maturities of long-term debt” on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. In addition, we would be required to maintain a springing lock-box arrangement where customer remittances go directly to a lock-box maintained by our lenders and then are forwarded to our general bank accounts. Our outstanding borrowings are not reduced by these payments unless our excess availability falls below the greater of $35 million or the amount equal to 15% of the lesser of the borrowing base or $400 million on any date or in the event of default. Our amended U.S. revolving credit facility does not contain a subjective acceleration clause, which would allow our lenders to accelerate the scheduled maturities of our debt or to cancel our agreement. On August 16, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our Canadian revolving credit facility (the “Canadian revolving credit facility”), which became effective on that date. The Amendment modifies the maturity date under the Credit Agreement to the earlier of (i) August 12, 2016 or the (ii) maturity date of the U.S. revolving credit facility. All other terms of the Canadian revolving credit facility remain the same. As of January 4, 2014, we had outstanding borrowings of $3.3 million and excess availability of $1.3 million under the terms of our Canadian revolving credit facility. As of December 29, 2012, we had outstanding borrowings of $1.9 million and excess availability of $2.0 million under the terms of our Canadian revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the Canadian revolving credit facility was 4.0% at January 4, 2014 and December 29, 2012. The Canadian revolving credit facility contains customary covenants and events of default for asset-based credit agreements of this type, including the requirement for BlueLinx Canada to maintain a minimum adjusted tangible net worth of $3.9 million and for that entity’s capital expenditures not to exceed 120% of the amount budgeted in a given year. As of January 4, 2014 and through the time of the filing of this Form 10-K, we were in compliance with all covenants under this facility
