Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | Debt 2022 Activity—Arconic maintains a five-year credit agreement, dated May 13, 2020, with a syndicate of lenders named therein and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch as administrative agent (the “ABL Credit Agreement”). The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”) to be used, generally, for working capital or other general corporate purposes. See Note Q to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II Item 8 of Arconic’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (filed on February 22, 2022) for additional information related to the ABL Credit Agreement. On February 16, 2022, the Company’s ABL Credit Agreement was amended to increase the revolving commitments under the ABL Credit Facility to $1,200 from $800. Additionally, the accordion feature of the ABL Credit Facility was revised to provide for the Company to request a further increase to the revolving commitments in an aggregate principal amount equal to the greater of $350 and the excess of the borrowing base over the ABL Credit Facility commitments. Furthermore, the LIBOR-based floating interest rate was replaced with a term SOFR-based interest rate, plus a credit spread adjustment equal to 0.10%, 0.15% or 0.25% per annum for SOFR-based borrowings with interest periods of one month, three months, or six months, respectively, under the ABL Credit Facility. Arconic paid $1 in upfront costs associated with these amendments. In March 2022, the Company borrowed $100 under the ABL Credit Facility. This borrowing was designated as a SOFR loan with an initial three-month interest period. As of March 31, 2022, the applicable rate on this borrowing was 2.50%. Arconic may repay early or extend a part or all of this borrowing. Availability under the ABL Credit Facility is subject to a monthly borrowing base calculation, which, in general, is determined by applying a predetermined percentage to the amount of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, less customary reserves. As of March 31, 2022, the available balance was $1,065 (net of outstanding borrowing of $100 and letters of credit of $35). 2021 Activity—On March 3, 2021, the Company completed a Rule 144A (U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended) debt offering for an additional $300 aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Secured Second-Lien Notes due 2028 (the “Additional 2028 Notes”). The Additional 2028 Notes were issued under the indenture governing Arconic’s existing 6.125% Senior Secured Second-Lien Notes due 2028 (the “Existing 2028 Notes”). Other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price, the Additional 2028 Notes are treated as a single series with and have the same terms as the Existing 2028 Notes. See Note Q to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II Item 8 of Arconic’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (filed on February 22, 2022) for additional information related to the Existing 2028 Notes. The Additional 2028 Notes were sold at 106.25% of par (i.e., a premium) and, after reflecting a discount to the initial purchasers of the Additional 2028 Notes, the Company received $315 in net proceeds from the debt offering. Arconic used the net proceeds of this issuance to fund an annuitization of certain U.S. defined benefit pension plan obligations in April 2021. The premium ($19) and costs to complete the financing ($5) were deferred and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Additional 2028 Notes. The amortization of the premium is reflected as a reduction to interest expense and the amortization of the costs to complete the financing is reflected as an addition to interest expense. Interest on the Additional 2028 Notes is paid semi-annually in February and August and commenced August 15, 2021.
