Revolving Credit Facility

The weighted-average annual interest rate on borrowings under the 2019 revolving credit facility was approximately 1.37% during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The credit facility was amended during the first quarter to define letters of credit.

The Company is required to maintain a maximum total adjusted net leverage ratio of 3.75:1, except in the event of an acquisition in which case the ratio may be increased at the Company’s election to 4.25:1 for the quarter in which such acquisition occurs and for the next three quarters thereafter.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unused credit capacity was $10.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively, on the Company’s 2019 revolving credit facility. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the 2019 credit facility as of March 31, 2021.

HF-T1 Distribution Center Loan

The Company’s joint venture with HF Logistics I, LLC (“HF”), HF Logistics-SKX, LLC (the “JV”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the JV (“HF-T1”), entered into a $129.5 million construction loan agreement which matures on March 18, 2025 (the “HF-T1 2020 Loan”) with interest of LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus a margin of 1.75% per annum.

HF-T1 also entered into an ISDA master agreement (together with the schedule related thereto, the “Swap Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. to govern derivative and/or hedging transactions that HF-T1 concurrently entered into with Bank of America, N.A. The Company’s objective in using the Swap Agreement is to stabilize interest expense and manage exposure to interest rate volatility. Pursuant to the Swap Agreement, on August 14, 2015, HF-T1 entered into a confirmation of swap transactions (the “Interest Rate Swap”) as amended (the “Swap Agreement Amendment”) on March 18, 2020 with Bank of America, N.A with a maturity date of March 18, 2025. The Swap Agreement Amendment fixes the effective interest rate on the HF-T1 2020 Loan at 2.55% per annum. The HF-T1 2020 Loan and Swap Agreement Amendment are subject to customary covenants and events of default. Bank of America, N.A. also acts as a lender and syndication agent under the Company’s 2019 Credit Agreement.

The Interest Rate Swap involves the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Interest Rate Swap had an aggregate notional amount of $129.5 million. Under the terms of the Swap Agreement Amendment, the Company will pay a weighted-average fixed rate of 0.795% on the notional amount and receive payments from the counterparty based on the 30-day LIBOR rate, effectively modifying the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting floating-rate debt to a fixed rate of 4.08%.

HF-T2 Distribution Center Construction Loan

The weighted-average annual interest rate on borrowings under the 2020 distribution center construction loan was approximately 2.02% during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The obligations of the JV under this loan are guaranteed by TGD Holdings I, LLC, which is an affiliate of HF.

China Distribution Center Construction Loan

The interest rate at March 31, 2021 was 4.15% and may increase or decrease over the life of the loan, and will be evaluated every 12 months. Beginning in 2021, the principal of the loan will be repaid in semi-annual installments of variable amounts. The obligations of the China distribution center construction loan, entered through the Company’s Taicang Subsidiary are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Company’s China joint venture. As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance under this loan included approximately $13.9 million classified as short-term borrowings in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
