Long-Term Debt | 6. Long-Term Debt The Company's long-term debt, net of unamortized deferred loan costs, consisted of the following at March 31, 2017 and December 31 , (In thousands) March 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Cash Convertible Notes, net of unamortized discount $ 139,790 $ 137,859 Prior Credit Agreement: Term Loan 55,000 60,000 Revolver 13,250 13,500 Capital lease obligations and other 1,029 1,270 209,069 212,629 Less: deferred loan costs (1,771 ) (2,286 ) 207,298 210,343 Less: current portion (147,102 ) (46,046 ) $ 60,196 $ 164,297 Credit Facility On June 8, 2012, we entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (as amended, the "Prior Credit Agreement"). The Prior Credit Agreement provided us with a $125 million revolving credit facility that includes a swingline sub facility of $20 million and a $75 million sub facility for letters of credit. The Prior Credit Agreement also provided a $200 million term loan facility, $55 million of which remained outstanding at March 31, 2017, and an uncommitted incremental accordion facility of $100 million. On April 21, 2017, we entered into a new revolving credit and term loan agreement, as described in detail below. Borrowings under the Prior Credit Agreement generally bore interest at variable rates based on a margin or spread in excess of either (1) the one-month, two-month, three-month or six-month rate (or with the approval of affected lenders, nine-month or twelve-month rate) for Eurodollar deposits ("LIBOR", which may not be less than zero), or (2) the greatest of (a) the SunTrust Bank prime lending rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate"), as selected by the Company. The LIBOR margin varied between 1.75% and 3.00%, and the Base Rate margin varied between 0.75% and 2.00%, depending on our leverage ratio. The Prior Credit Agreement also provided for an annual fee ranging between 0.30% and 0.50% of the unused commitments under the revolving credit facility. Extensions of credit under the Prior Credit Agreement were secured by guarantees from all of the Company's active domestic subsidiaries and by security interests in substantially all of the Company's and such subsidiaries' assets. On August 4, 2016, we entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Prior Credit Agreement (the "Eighth Amendment"). The Eighth Amendment extended the expiration date of the revolving credit facility and the maturity date of the term loan facility under the Prior Credit Agreement from June 8, 2017 to June 8, 2018 (the "Extended Maturity Date"). The Eighth Amendment contemplated that some lenders might not agree to the Extended Maturity Date and preserved June 8, 2017 as the non-extended maturity date (the "Non-Extended Maturity Date") for such lenders. Lenders holding $45.3 million of the revolving commitments and $25.4 million of outstanding term loans as of August 4, 2016 did not consent to the Extended Maturity Date. On the Non-Extended Maturity Date, the revolving commitments of non-consenting revolving lenders will terminate and any outstanding term loans and revolving loans owed to non-consenting lenders must be paid in full. The outstanding revolving loans under the revolving credit facility held by consenting lenders must be paid in full on June 8, 2018. We are required to repay term loans in quarterly principal installments aggregating 2.50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the term loans ($5.0 million) during each of the remaining quarters prior to maturity on June 8, 2018, at which time the entire unpaid principal balance of the term loans held by consenting lenders is due and payable. As of March 31, 2017, availability under the revolving credit facility totaled $104.3 million. On April 21, 2017, we entered into a new Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a group of lenders, which replaced the Prior Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides us with (1) a $100 million revolving credit facility that includes a $25 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $75 million sublimit for letters of credit, (2) a $70 million term loan A facility, (3) a $150 million delayed draw term loan facility, and (4) an uncommitted incremental accordion facility of $100 million. We used the proceeds of the term loan A and cash on hand to repay all of the outstanding indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay transaction costs and expenses. Proceeds of revolving loans and delayed draw term loans may be used to repay outstanding indebtedness (including amounts payable upon or in respect of any conversion of the Cash Convertible Notes discussed below and the repayment of any revolving loans borrowed for such purposes), to finance working capital needs, to finance acquisitions, to finance the repurchase of our common stock, to finance capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. Delayed draw term loans may not be borrowed after July 2, 2018. We are required to repay outstanding revolving loans in full on April 21, 2022. We are required to repay the term loan A in quarterly principal installments aggregating (1) $875,000 each for the first twelve quarters following the closing, and (2) $1,312,500 each for the remaining quarters prior to maturity on April 21, 2022. We are required to repay the delayed draw term loans in quarterly principal installments calculated as follows: (1) for each of the first twelve quarters following the closing, 1.250% of the aggregate principal amount of the delayed draw term loans funded as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter; and (2) for each of the remaining quarters prior to maturity on April 21, 2022, 1.875% of the aggregate principal amount of the delayed draw term loans funded as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. At maturity on April 21, 2022, the entire unpaid principal balances of the term loan A and the delayed draw term loans are due and payable. As a result of entering into the Credit Agreement, as of March 31, 2017 we reclassified $37.3 million from current liabilities to long-term debt; this amount was due within one year from March 31, 2017 under the Prior Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest at variable rates based on a margin or spread in excess of either (1) the one-month, two-month, three-month or six-month LIBOR rate (or with the approval of affected lenders, the twelve-month LIBOR rate), which may not be less than zero, or (2) the greatest of (a) the SunTrust Bank prime lending rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate"), as selected by the Company. The LIBOR margin varies between 1.50% and 2.75%, and the Base Rate margin varies between 0.50% and 1.75%, depending on our net leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement also provides for annual fees ranging between 0.20% and 0.50% of the unused commitments under the revolving credit facility and the delayed draw term loan facility. Extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement are secured by guarantees from all of the Company's active material subsidiaries and by security interests in substantially all of the Company's and such subsidiaries' assets. Each of the Prior Credit Agreement and the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require us to maintain, as defined, specified ratios or levels of (1) funded debt to EBITDA and (2) fixed charge coverage. The Prior Credit Agreement and the Credit Agreement also contain various other affirmative and negative covenants that are typical for financings of this type. Among other things, they limit repurchases of our common stock and the amount of dividends that we can pay to holders of our common stock. 1.50% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2018 On July 16, 2013, we completed the issuance of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of cash convertible senior notes due 2018 (the "Cash Convertible Notes"), which bear interest at a rate of 1.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2014. The Cash Convertible Notes will mature on July 1, 2018, unless earlier repurchased or converted into cash in accordance with their terms prior to such date. At the option of the holders, the Cash Convertible Notes are convertible into cash based on the conversion rate set forth below only upon occurrence of certain triggering events as defined in the Indenture dated as of July 8, 2013 by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, none of which had o ccurred as of December 31, 2016 and one of which had occurred as of March 31, 2017, as further detailed below. Accordingly, we have classified the Cash Convertible Notes as long-term debt at December 31, 2016 and as current liabilities at March 31, 2017 The Cash Convertible Notes become convertible into cash during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to approximately $25.30 per share ("Trading Price Condition"). The Trading Price Condition was satisfied on March 17, 2017 for the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2017, and accordingly, the Convertible Notes will be convertible at any time at the option of the holders during the period from April 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017. The initial cash conversion rate is 51.3769 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $19.4640 per share of common stock). The settlement on any Convertible Notes surrendered for conversion during this period will occur on the third business day following the end of the applicable "Observation Period" with respect to such conversion (i.e., the period that begins on the date that a holder surrendered the Convertible Notes for conversion in accordance with the requirements of the indenture and ends on the 80th consecutive trading day following such date). The indenture requires the Company to satisfy the entire settlement amount for any conversions (determined in accordance with the provisions of the indenture) in cash, and the notes are not convertible into the Company's common stock or any other securities under any circumstances. The Cash Convertible Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Cash Convertible Notes. As a result of this transaction, we recognized deferred loan costs of approximately $3.9 million, which are being amortized over the term of the Cash Convertible Notes using the effective interest method. The cash conversion feature of the Cash Convertible Notes is a derivative liability (the "Cash Conversion Derivative") that requires bifurcation from the Cash Convertible Notes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC Topic 815"), and is carried at fair value. At December 31, 2016, because the Cash Convertible Notes were classified as long-term debt, the Cash Conversion Derivative was classified as long-term liabilities. Due to the satisfaction of the Trading Price Condition in March 2017 and the resulting classification of the Cash Convertible Notes as a current liability at March 31, 2017, the Cash Conversion Derivative is recorded in current liabilities at March 31, 2017. The fair value of the Cash Conversion Derivative at the time of issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes was $36.8 million, which was recorded as a debt discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of the Cash Convertible Notes. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the Cash Convertible Notes using the effective interest method. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we recorded $1.9 million of interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount based upon an effective interest rate of 5.7%. The net carrying amount of the Cash Convertible Notes at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $139.8 million and $137.9 million, respectively, net of the unamortized discount of $10.2 million and $12.1 million, respectively. In connection with the issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (the "Cash Convertible Notes Hedges"), which are cash-settled and are intended to reduce our exposure to potential cash payments that we would be required to make if holders elect to convert the Cash Convertible Notes at a time when our stock price exceeds the conversion price. The initial cost of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges was $36.8 million. At December 31, 2016, because the Cash Convertible Notes were classified as long-term debt, the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges were classified as long-term assets. Due to the satisfaction of the Trading Price Condition in March 2017 and the resulting classification of the Cash Convertible Notes as a current liability at March 31, 2017, the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges are classified in current assets at March 31, 2017. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges are recorded as a derivative asset under ASC Topic 815 and are carried at fair value. See Note 9 for additional information regarding the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative and their fair values. In July 2013, we also sold separate privately negotiated warrants (the "Warrants") initially relating, in the aggregate, to a notional number of shares of our common stock underlying the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges. The Warrants have an initial strike price of approximately $25.95 per share, which effectively increases the conversion price of the Cash Convertible Notes to a 60% premium to our stock price on July 1, 2013. The Warrants will be net share settled by issuing a number of shares of our common stock per Warrant corresponding to the excess of the market price per share of our common stock (as measured on each warrant exercise date under the terms of the Warrants) over the applicable strike price of the Warrants. The Warrants meet the definition of derivatives under the guidance in ASC Topic 815; however, because these instruments have been determined to be indexed to our own stock and meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC Topic 815, the Warrants have been accounted for as an adjustment to our additional paid-in-capital. When the market value per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the Warrants, the Warrants have a dilutive effect on net income per share, and the "treasury stock" method is used in calculating the dilutive effect on earnings per share. See Note 10 for additional information on such dilutive effect. |
