Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt and Lease Obligations | Debt and Lease Obligations On June 30, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), through Hostess Brands, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company entered into a senior secured first lien credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which included a $985 million term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan bears interest, at the Company’s option, at a variable rate per annum equal to either (x) the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin of 2.50% or (y) an alternative base rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin of 1.50%. The Credit Agreement is secured on a first priority basis on substantially all of the Company’s assets and is guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries. It is prepayable without premium or penalty at any time, except for prepayment from the proceeds of a similar term loan within six months after the Closing Date, which requires a 1% premium. The principal shall be paid at 1% of the aggregate principal amount ($9.85 million) per year, with the balance due at maturity on June 30, 2030. The proceeds from the Term Loan were used to repay, in full the $983.2 million principal balance on the prior term loan and fund a portion of the loan fees. The Term Loan consists of a syndicate of lenders which for accounting purposes are evaluated as individual lenders. For certain lenders, a portion of the refinancing was considered a modification of the prior term loan and related fees paid to third parties of $6.8 million were expensed as costs of the modification. The total loss on the modification and extinguishment of debt was $7.5 million, which includes $0.7 million of unamortized debt premium and issuance costs. Fees of $10.8 million associated with the new borrowings were capitalized. Of the total $985.0 million Term Loan, there was $336.7 million of cash proceeds attributed to new syndicate members or existing members increasing their positions. Of the total $983.2 million prior term loan, $334.9 million of cash payments were attributed to exiting syndicate members or members decreasing their positions. A summary of the carrying value of the debt and lease obligations are as follows:
