Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Note 8 — Debt In October 2015, Flaga entered into a €100.8 Credit Facility Agreement (“Flaga Credit Facility Agreement”) with a bank. The Flaga Credit Facility Agreement includes a €25 multi-currency revolving credit facility, a €5 overdraft facility, a €25 guarantee facility and a €45.8 variable-rate term loan facility. Borrowings under the Flaga Credit Facility Agreement’s €45.8 term loan facility were used to refinance its €19.1 term loan due October 2016 and its €26.7 term loan due August 2016. Concurrent with entering into the Flaga Credit Facility Agreement, Flaga terminated its then-existing €46 multi-currency working capital facility. The Flaga Credit Facility Agreement revolving credit facility borrowings bear interest at market rates (generally one, three or six-month euribor rates) plus margins. The margins on revolving facility borrowings, which range from 1.45% to 3.65%, are based upon the actual amount borrowed and certain consolidated equity, return on assets and debt to EBITDA ratios, as defined in the Flaga Credit Facility Agreement. Facility fees on the unused amount of the revolving credit facility are 30% of the lowest applicable margin. The Flaga Credit Facility Agreement is scheduled to expire in October 2020. The €45.8 term loan matures in October 2020. The €45.8 term bears interest at three-month euribor rates, plus a margin. The margin on such borrowings ranges from 0.40% to 1.80% and is based upon certain consolidated equity, return on assets and debt to EBITDA ratios, as defined. Flaga has entered into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps that generally fix the underlying euribor rate on the term loan borrowings at 2.18% through September 2016 and 0.23% from October 2016 through October 2020. Because the cash flows associated with the refinancing of the then-existing term loans were with the same bank, such cash flows have been reflected “net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In February 2016, Energy Services entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Energy Services Credit Agreement"), as borrower, with a group of lenders providing for borrowings up to $240, including a $50 sublimit for letters of credit. Borrowings under the Energy Services Credit Agreement bear interest at either (i) the Alternate Base Rate plus a margin or (ii) a rate derived from LIBOR (“Adjusted LIBOR”) plus a margin. The Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Energy Services Credit Agreement) is the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (c) the Adjusted LIBOR plus 1%. The margin on such borrowings is currently 2.25%. The Energy Services Credit Agreement requires that Energy Services not exceed ratios of total indebtedness to EBITDA, as defined, of 3.50 to 1.00, and maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to interest expense, as defined, of 3.50 to 1.00. The Energy Services Credit Agreement is scheduled to expire in March 2021. In April 2016, UGI Utilities entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “2016 Note Purchase Agreement”) which provides for the private placement of (1) $100 aggregate principal amount of 2.95% Senior Notes due June 30, 2026; (2) $200 aggregate principal amount of 4.12% Senior Notes due September 30, 2046; and (3) $100 aggregate principal amount of 4.12% Senior Notes due October 31, 2046. These Senior Notes are expected to be issued in June 2016, September 2016 and October 2016, respectively. These Senior Notes, when issued, will be unsecured and will rank equally with UGI Utilities’ existing outstanding senior debt. UGI Utilities expects to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes to refinance existing debt and for general corporate purposes. Because UGI Utilities intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of $200 Senior Notes in September 2016 to repay UGI Utilities’ currently outstanding $175 principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due September 30, 2016, the 5.75% Senior Notes have been classified as long-term on the March 31, 2016, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
