Debt [Text Block] | Debt At December 31, 2016 and 2015, short-term borrowings of $93,827 and $44,024, respectively, were primarily utilized to support the working capital requirements. The weighted-average interest rates on these borrowings at December 31, 2016 and 2015 were 2.4% and 3.3%, respectively. Long-term debt consists of the following at December 31:
The 7.50% senior debentures are not redeemable prior to their maturity. The 6.875% senior debentures, 3.00% notes, 6.00% notes, 5.125% notes, 3.50% notes, 4.50% notes, and 4.00% notes may be called at the option of the company subject to "make whole" clauses. The estimated fair market value at December 31, using quoted market prices, is as follows:
The carrying amount of the company's short-term borrowings in various countries, revolving credit facility, asset securitization program, and other obligations approximate their fair value. The company has a revolving credit facility that may be used by the company for general corporate purposes including working capital in the ordinary course of business, letters of credit, repayment, prepayment or purchase of long-term indebtedness, acquisitions, and as support for the company's commercial paper program, as applicable. In December 2016, the company amended its revolving credit facility and, among other things, increased its borrowing capacity from $1,500,000 to $1,800,000 and extended its term to mature in December 2021. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is calculated using a base rate or a euro currency rate plus a spread (1.18% at December 31, 2016), which is based on the company's credit ratings, for an effective interest rate of 1.99% at December 31, 2016. The facility fee, which is based on the company's credit ratings, was .20% at December 31, 2016. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2016. The company had $72,000 in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2015. The company has a commercial paper program and the maximum aggregate balance of commercial paper notes outstanding may not exceed the borrowing capacity of $1,200,000. The company had no outstanding borrowings under this program as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. The company has an asset securitization program collateralized by accounts receivable of certain of its subsidiaries. In September 2016, the company amended its asset securitization program and, among other things, increased its borrowing capacity from $900,000 to $910,000 and extended its term to mature in September 2019. The asset securitization program is conducted through Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation ("AFC"), a wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote subsidiary. The asset securitization program does not qualify for sale treatment. Accordingly, the accounts receivable and related debt obligation remain on the company's consolidated balance sheets. Interest on borrowings is calculated using a base rate or a commercial paper rate plus a spread (.40% at December 31, 2016), which is based on the company's credit ratings, for an effective interest rate of 1.31% at December 31, 2016. The facility fee is .40%. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the company had $460,000 and $75,000, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program, which was included in "Long-term debt" in the company's consolidated balance sheets, and total collateralized accounts receivable of approximately $2,045,464 and $1,871,831, respectively, were held by AFC and were included in "Accounts receivable, net" in the company's consolidated balance sheets. Any accounts receivable held by AFC would likely not be available to other creditors of the company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings before repayment of any outstanding borrowings under the asset securitization program. Both the revolving credit facility and asset securitization program include terms and conditions that limit the incurrence of additional borrowings and require that certain financial ratios be maintained at designated levels. The company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2016 and is currently not aware of any events that would cause non-compliance with any covenants in the future. During 2014, the company entered into an agreement for an uncommitted line of credit. Under this agreement, the company may borrow up to a total of $100,000. There were no outstanding borrowings under the uncommitted line of credit at December 31, 2016 and 2015. Annual payments of borrowings during each of the years 2017 through 2021 are $93,827, $500,737, $461,573, $299,611, and $248,852, respectively, and $1,185,561 for all years thereafter. During 2015, the company completed the sale of $350,000 principal amount of 3.50% notes due in 2022 and $350,000 principal amount of 4.00% notes due in 2025. The net proceeds of the offering of $688,162 were used to refinance the company's 3.375% notes due November 2015 and for general corporate purposes. During 2015, the company redeemed $250,000 principal amount of its 3.375% notes due November 2015. The related loss on the redemption for 2015 was $2,943 and was recognized as a loss on prepayment of debt in the company's consolidated statements of operations. Interest and other financing expense, net, includes interest and dividend income of $18,680, $6,301, and $5,552 in 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. Interest paid, net of interest and dividend income, amounted to $141,816, $133,390, and $120,477 in 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. |
