Debt:

(11)                          Debt:  The Company entered into a $375.0 million, five-year unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks during the second quarter of 2012 in order to provide additional sources of liquidity for working capital requirements or investment opportunities on a short-term as well as longer-term basis.  As of June 30, 2013, the used portion of the Company’s revolving credit facility was $6.8 million, all of which was from letters of credit.

 

During the second quarter of 2012, Matson issued $170.0 million in unsecured, fixed rate, amortizing long-term debt.  The debt was funded in three tranches; $77.5 million at an interest rate of 3.66% maturing in 2023, $55.0 million at an interest rate of 4.16% maturing in 2027, and $37.5 million at an interest rate of 4.31% maturing in 2032.  The weighted average coupon and duration of the three tranches of debt are 3.97% and 9.3 years, respectively.  The cash received from issuance was partially utilized to fund a contribution of cash from Matson to A&B under the terms of the Separation.  Additionally, the Company negotiated the release of the MV Manulani as security for existing long-term debt of $56.0 million as part of the Company’s debt restructuring completed during the second quarter of 2012 to facilitate the Separation.  This obligation was also moved from MatNav to Matson.  Following the above mentioned debt financing transactions, all of Matson’s outstanding debt was unsecured, except for $70.4 million as of June 30, 2013.  However, the debt is guaranteed by Matson’s significant subsidiaries.

 

Capital Leases:  As of June 30, 2013, Matson had obligations under its capital leases of $3.0 million consisting of specialized and standard containers used in the Company’s South Pacific service.  Capital leases have been classified as current and long-term within the notes payable and current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt accounts, respectively, within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Total debt was $292.4 million, as of June 30, 2013, compared with $319.1 million at the end of 2012.

 

Principal negative covenants as defined in Matson’s five-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) and long-term fixed rate debt include, but are not limited to:

 

a)                       The ratio of debt to consolidated EBITDA cannot exceed 3.25 to 1.00 for each fiscal four quarter period;

 

b)                       The ratio of consolidated EBITDA to interest expense as of the end of any fiscal four quarter period cannot be less than 3.50 to 1.00; and

 

c)                        The principal amount of priority debt at any time cannot exceed 20% of consolidated tangible assets; and the principal amount of priority debt that is not Title XI priority debt at any time cannot exceed 10% of consolidated tangible assets.  Priority debt, as further defined in the Credit Agreement, is all debt secured by a lien on the Company’s assets or subsidiary debt.

 

The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2013.
