Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | Debt Credit Facility In April 2021, the Company entered into a $250.0 million credit facility agreement with a syndicate of banks. In July 2024, the Company entered into a supplement to the credit facility agreement, which increased the aggregate revolving commitments available under the credit facility from $250.0 million to $290.0 million. The credit facility has a maturity date of April 30, 2026 and bears interest at a rate based upon the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio. The Company’s Net Leverage Ratio is defined as total debt less total cash and permitted investments outstanding at period end, with a maximum total cash and permitted investments adjustment of $550.0 million, divided by the trailing 12 months of earnings, adjusted for items such as non-cash expenses and other nonrecurring transactions. The Company is also obligated to pay other customary fees including a commitment fee on a quarterly basis based on amounts committed but unused under the credit facility at a rate between 0.25% to 0.35%, depending on the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio. The credit facility is collateralized by security interests in substantially all of the Company’s assets and includes customary events of default such as non-payment of principal, non-payment of interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of certain covenants, cross default to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments against the Company, and a change of control. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the credit facility. The credit facility agreement contains customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants, such as financial statement reporting requirements, negative covenants, and financial covenants, such as maintenance of certain net leverage ratio requirements. The negative covenants include restrictions that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to incur liens and indebtedness, make certain investments, declare dividends, dispose of, transfer or sell assets, make stock repurchases and consummate certain other matters, all subject to certain exceptions. On November 19, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the credit agreement with a syndicate of banks and the lenders named therein (the “Credit Agreement”), to amend certain other provisions under the Credit Agreement relating to how letters of credit denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars are valued under the Credit Agreement. On January 10, 2022, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with a syndicate of banks and the lenders named therein. The Second Amendment increased the maximum amount of liquidity (including cash and permitted investments) that may be netted against the Company’s total indebtedness from $100.0 million to $550.0 million for purposes of calculating the Company’s total Net Leverage Ratio under the Credit Agreement. On April 26, 2022, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement with the administrative agent to clarify the amounts to be held with the administrative agent. On March 28, 2023, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement with the administrative agent to replace the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) reference rate with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) reference rate. No other terms or conditions of the Credit Agreement were changed as a result of this amendment. On July 8, 2024, the Company entered into a supplement to the Credit Agreement, which increased the aggregate revolving commitments available under the Credit Agreement from $250.0 million to $290.0 million. The Company had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement and was in compliance with the financial covenants as of December 31, 2025. The amount available under the credit facility as of December 31, 2025 was $287.7 million, which is the credit limit less letters of credit outstanding of $2.3 million. Senior Unsecured Notes On January 12, 2022, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $550.0 million senior unsecured Notes due 2030 in a private placement. The Notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of ZipRecruiter, Inc. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of January 12, 2022 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and the trustee. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Notes will mature on January 15, 2030 and bear interest at a rate of 5% per year. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. Unpaid amounts are included within accrued interest in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Indenture contains certain customary negative covenants, including but not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of debt, liens, consolidations or mergers, and asset sales. The Indenture also contains customary events of default. At its sole discretion, the Company has the option to redeem all or a part of the Notes as follows: (i) At any time prior to January 15, 2025, the Company may redeem all or part of the Notes, at its option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium as defined in the Indenture, and any accrued and unpaid interest, if any; (ii) Prior to January 15, 2025, the Company has the option to redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes from net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 105% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest; and (iii) At any time on or after January 15, 2025, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at the redemption prices equal to the percentage of principal amount set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on January 15 of the year indicated below:
Year | Percentage
2025 | 102.50 | %
2026 | 101.25 | %
2027 and thereafter | 100.00 | %
Upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event (as defined in the Indenture), the Company must offer to repurchase the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, and any accrued and unpaid interest. The Company includes its Notes, net of debt issuance costs, within long-term borrowings, net in its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company accounts for the debt issuance costs incurred related to the Notes using the effective interest method, under which the debt issuance costs are amortized as interest expense until the applicable maturity date. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a carrying amount of approximately $5.2 million of debt issuance costs related to the Notes. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized $28.6 million, $28.6 million, and $28.5 million, respectively, in interest expense related to the Notes with an effective interest rate of 5.4% for all three years. Such interest expense includes $1.1 million, $1.1 million, and $1.0 million related to the amortization of debt issuance costs for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
