In February 2017, the Company issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.95% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2027.  The interest rate on these senior notes may be increased by 0.25% each time a credit rating applicable to the notes is downgraded. The maximum rate is 5.95%. The net proceeds of approximately $394.6 million were initially used to repay, in part, $350 million of our Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (the “Facility”) and the remainder was used for general purposes including share repurchases.  The conditions and covenants related to the senior notes are less restrictive than those of our Facility. The effective interest rate for the outstanding period in the first nine months was 3.86% inclusive of approximately a 0.25% benefit of treasury locks. The fair value of the senior notes due in 2027 based on quoted prices utilizing Level 2 inputs was $410.0 million at September 30, 2017.

 

In August 2015, the Company issued $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.7% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2025.  The interest rate on these senior notes may be increased by 0.25% each time a credit rating applicable to the notes is downgraded. The maximum rate is 6.7%.  The conditions and covenants related to the senior notes are less restrictive than those of our Facility. The effective interest rate for the first nine-months of 2017 was 4.85%. The fair value of the notes due in 2025 based on quoted prices utilizing Level 2 inputs was $323.4 million at September 30, 2017.

As of September 30, 2017, total borrowings under our $700 million Facility were $75 million, which approximates fair value using Level 2 inputs. The Company utilized its Facility at various borrowing levels with $451 million and $524 million representing the highest amounts borrowed within the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Facility permits us to issue letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $40 million. Outstanding letters of credit reduce the amount available for borrowing under our revolving loan. As of September 30, 2017, we had no outstanding letters of credit under the Facility, resulting in undrawn availability under the Facility as of September 30, 2017 of $625.0 million.

The Facility contains financial and other covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the incurrence of debt and the granting of liens, as well as the maintenance of an interest coverage ratio and a leverage ratio.  In accordance with the terms of the Facility, we are required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.50 (based on the ratio of EBITDA, as defined in the credit agreement, to interest expense) and may not exceed a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 (based on the ratio of total debt to EBITDA) throughout the term of the Facility.  In addition, the Facility contains other terms and conditions such as customary representations and warranties, additional covenants and customary events of default. The average interest rate on the Facility was 2.36% for the nine months of 2017. The average interest rate was 1.8% for 2016.

In June 2016, we entered into a 60 million term loan.  The loan has two tranches of which the first tranche for 25 million has a rate of Euribor +1.2% and a final maturity date of June 30, 2023.  The first tranche is repayable in seven equal annual installments, which began on June 30, 2017.  The second tranche for 35 million has a rate of Euribor +1.25% and a final maturity date of June 30, 2024. The first annual amortization payment for the second tranche is due June 30, 2019.  There is a zero percent floor on the Euribor. The outstanding amounts at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were €56.4 million (or $66.6 million) and €25 million (or $26.4 million), which approximates fair value.  The term loan is guaranteed by Hexcel Corporation.
