As a result of the amendment, the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan A Facility no longer have multiple tranches. Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan A Facility bear interest at either LIBOR or base rate, at Station LLC’s option, plus a spread that is dependent on Station LLC’s consolidated total leverage ratio as shown below: Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A Facility due February 7, 2025 LIBOR Base Rate Greater than 4.00 to 1.00 1.75 % 0.75 % Less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 1.50 % 0.50 % The Company evaluated the Credit Facility amendment on a lender-by-lender basis and accounted for the majority of the amendment as a debt modification. The Company capitalized $5.1 million in new costs, primarily lender fees, and recognized a loss on debt extinguishment and modification of $12.5 million , comprised of $8.8 million in new third-party costs incurred and $3.7 million of previously deferred costs. The Credit Facility contains a number of customary covenants, including requirements that Station LLC maintain throughout the term of the Credit Facility and measured as of the end of each quarter, an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.50 to 1.00 and a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, with step-downs over the term of the Credit Facility, ranging from 6.50 to 1.00 at June 30, 2020 to 5.25 to 1.00 at December 31, 2023 and thereafter. A breach of the financial ratio covenants shall only become an event of default under the Term Loan B Facility if the lenders within the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility take certain affirmative actions after the occurrence of a default of such financial ratio covenants. Management believes the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants at June 30, 2020 . The Company expects to remain in compliance with its debt covenants; however, if the current economic downturn persists, the Company may seek waivers or amendments from the lenders in order to avoid a potential covenant violation. A covenant waiver may lead to increased costs, increased interest rates, additional restrictive covenants and other available lender protections that would be applicable. There can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain waivers or amendments with acceptable terms or in a timely manner. Without such waivers or the ability to repay the outstanding borrowings, an event of default or acceleration of principal amounts due could occur, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company. Revolving Credit Facility At June 30, 2020 , Station LLC’s borrowing availability under its Revolving Credit Facility, subject to continued compliance with the terms of the Credit Facility, was $651.3 million , which was net of $347.5 million in outstanding borrowings and $32.3 million in outstanding letters of credit and similar obligations. Senior Notes On February 7, 2020, Station LLC issued $750.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior notes due 2028 (“ 4.50% Senior Notes”) pursuant to an indenture dated as of February 7, 2020, among Station LLC, the guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee. The net proceeds of the sale of the 4.50% Senior Notes were used (i) to repay a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility, (ii) to pay fees and costs associated with the offering and (iii) for general corporate purposes. Interest on the 4.50% Senior Notes will be paid every six months in arrears on February 15 and August 15, commencing on August 15, 2020. The indenture governing the 4.50% Senior Notes contains a number of customary covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, restrict the ability of Station LLC and its restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; issue disqualified stock or create subordinated indebtedness that is not subordinated to the 4.50% Senior Notes; create liens; engage in mergers, consolidations or asset dispositions; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; engage in lines of business other than its core business and related businesses; or make investments or pay distributions (other than customary tax distributions). These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications as set forth in the indenture. The indenture governing the 4.50% Senior Notes also provides for events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on such 4.50% Senior Notes to be declared due and payable. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased $53.7 million in aggregate principal amount of its 4.50% Senior Notes and $11.7 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.00% senior notes due 2025. These early debt repurchases resulted in a $12.0 million gain on extinguishment, which included purchase rate discounts as well as unamortized discount and deferred issuance costs on the retired principal amounts. |
