In December 2022, the Company amended and extended for two years its trade accounts receivable securitization program (the “Securitization Program”) in the United States with a group of financial institutions. The Securitization Program allows the Company to transfer, on an ongoing revolving basis, an undivided interest in a designated pool of trade accounts receivable, to provide security or collateral for borrowings of up to $650 million. The Securitization Program does not qualify for off balance sheet accounting treatment and any borrowings under the Securitization Program are recorded as debt in the consolidated balance sheets. Under the Securitization Program, the Company legally sells and isolates certain U.S. trade accounts receivable into a wholly owned and consolidated bankruptcy remote special purpose entity. Such receivables, which are recorded within “Receivables” in the consolidated balance sheets, totaled $1.21 billion and $1.12 billion at April 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022, respectively. The Securitization Program contains certain covenants relating to the quality of the receivables sold.

In 2022, the Company amended and extended its five-year $1.50 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which expires in August 2027. It consists of revolving credit facilities and the issuance of up to $200.0 million of letters of credit and up to $300.0 million of loans in certain approved currencies. As of April 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022, there were $1.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. Under the Credit Facility, the Company may select from various interest rate options, currencies, and maturities. The Credit Facility contains certain covenants including various limitations on debt incurrence, share repurchases, dividends, investments, and capital expenditures. The Credit Facility also includes a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a leverage ratio not to exceed a certain threshold, which the Company was in compliance with as of April 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022.

In March 2023, the Company issued $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.250% Notes due 2028. The related discount and issuance costs will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes and are not considered material to the consolidated financial statements. Interest is payable semi-annually, in arrears, in March and September, commencing September 2023.

As of April 1, 2023, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $3.11 billion and $3.04 billion, respectively. At July 2, 2022, the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s total debt was $1.61 billion and $1.55 billion, respectively. Fair value for the public notes was estimated based upon quoted market prices (Level 1) and, for other forms of debt, fair value approximates carrying value due to the market based variable nature of the interest rates on those debt facilities (Level 2).
