As of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, there was approximately $260.0 million and $460.0 million, respectively, of undrawn availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is reduced to the extent of outstanding letters of credit.

 

On April 19, 2013, the Company amended and restated its existing credit agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) that provides for a five-year $1.07 billion senior secured credit facility comprised of a $370 million term loan (“Term Loan A”) and a $700 million revolving credit facility, including a $50 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit, a $10 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $150 million sublimit for multicurrency borrowings approved under the credit facility (the “Secured Credit Facility”).

 

Term Loan A requires quarterly principal payments of $5,625,000 through March 2014; $7,500,000 from June 2014 through March 2016; and $5,000,000 from June 2016 until the Term Loan A’s maturity in April 2018 upon when the remaining outstanding principal balance of $247.5 million is due.

 

The interest for the Term Loan A and Revolving Credit Facility is calculated by the applicable leverage-based margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.75% per annum in the case of any Eurodollar rate loan and 0.25% to 1.75% per annum for any base rate loan. The base rate is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a) the federal funds rate plus one-half of 1%, (b) the rate of interest announced by the administrative agent as its prime rate, and (c) the Eurodollar rate plus 1%. The Eurodollar rate is the rate per annum equal to LIBOR when interest is due.

 

On November 25, 2013, the Company completed the Acquisition and entered into an incremental joinder agreement (“Term Loan B”) in which its lenders provided an aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion. Beginning on December 31, 2013, the Term Loan B requires quarterly principal payments equal to $2,750,000 until its maturity in November 2020, when the remaining outstanding principal balance of $1.023 billion is due. The Company capitalized debt issuance costs of $22.5 million associated with the Term Loan B, of which $10.5 million were recorded as a discount to long-term debt.

 

The interest for the Term Loan B is calculated by the applicable margin of 3.25% per annum in the case of any Eurodollar rate loan and 2.25% per annum for any base rate loan. The base rate is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a) the federal funds rate plus one-half of 1%, (b) the rate of interest announced by the administrative agent as its prime rate, (c) the Eurodollar rate plus 1%, and (d) 2%. The Eurodollar rate is the higher of (a) 1% per annum, and (b) the rate per annum equal to LIBOR when interest is due.

 

As of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was 2.65% and 1.45%, respectively, and the interest rate on the Term Loan A was 4.03% and 3.59%, respectively, after giving effect to the floating-to-fixed interest rate swap. As of March 31, 2014, the interest rate on the Term Loan B was 4.25%.

 

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets and is guaranteed by each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, excluding any noncontrolling interests, and is secured by a pledge agreement.

 

The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. As of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the fair value of long-term debt approximated the carrying value.

 

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability and certain of its subsidiaries to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock, pay dividends or make other distributions, enter into certain acquisitions, repurchase equity interests or subordinated indebtedness, issue or sell equity interests of our subsidiaries, engage in mergers or acquisitions or certain transactions with subsidiaries and affiliates, and otherwise restrict corporate activities.

 

The financial covenants under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement consist of a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. The leverage ratio is computed as total debt outstanding at the end of the quarter divided by the trailing twelve months earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), excluding certain cash and non-cash charges. The interest coverage ratio is computed as EBITDA for the trailing twelve months divided by the trailing twelve months of interest charges.

 

A breach of any of the covenants or the inability to comply with the required financial ratios could result in a default under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. In the event of any such default, the lenders could elect to declare all borrowings outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, together with any accrued interest and other fees, to be due and payable. If the Company were unable to repay the indebtedness upon its acceleration, the lenders could proceed against the underlying collateral. The Company was in compliance with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement covenants as of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

 

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

 

Effective June 2011, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed rate swap agreement with a maturity date of May 13, 2016 to fix a portion of the floating LIBOR-based debt under the Secured Credit Facility to fixed-rate debt at an interest rate of 2.09% (plus applicable margin). In October 2013, the Company entered into an additional floating-to-fixed rate swap agreement with a maturity of June 30, 2018 to fix an additional portion of the floating LIBOR-based debt of the Secured Credit Facility to fixed-rate debt at an interest rate of 2.04% (plus applicable margin). The interest swaps have accreting and subsequently amortizing notionals in order to hedge the targeted amount of debt over the life of the swaps. In January 2014, the Company entered into an additional floating-to-fixed rate swap agreement with a maturity of June 30, 2020 to fix an additional portion of the floating LIBOR-based debt of the Secured Credit Facility to fixed-rate debt at an interest rate of 3.00% (plus applicable margin) for $450 million of such debt, without any accreting or amortizing features. At March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the swap agreements had notional values of $247.5 million and $264.4 million of active swaps and $550.0 million and $-0- million of forward starting swaps, respectively.

 

The Company has documented and designated the interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Based on the assessment of effectiveness using statistical regression, the Company determined that the interest rate swaps are effective. Effectiveness testing of the hedge relationships and measurement to quantify ineffectiveness is performed each fiscal quarter using the hypothetical derivative method. As the interest rate swaps qualify as cash flow hedges, the Company adjusts the cash flow hedges on a quarterly basis to their fair values with a corresponding offset to accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) for all effective amounts and interest expense for all ineffective amounts. The interest rate swaps have been and are expected to remain highly effective for the life of the hedges. Effective amounts are reclassified to interest expense as the related hedged expense is incurred. As of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the Company had no ineffectiveness on its cash flow hedges. Amounts related to the swaps expected to be reclassified from OCI to interest expense in the next twelve months total $4.5 million.
