Columbia Sportswear Company Credit Lines
In 2020, the Company entered into a credit agreement, maturing on December 30, 2025, which provides an unsecured, committed revolving credit facility that provides for funding up to $500.0 million. Interest, payable monthly, is based on the Company's option of either LIBOR plus an applicable margin or a base rate. Base rate is defined as the highest of the following, plus an applicable margin:
•the administrative agent's prime rate;
•the higher of the federal funds rate or the overnight bank funding rate set by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 0.50%; or
•the one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%.
This credit agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants covering the Company's funded debt ratio and asset coverage ratio. The credit agreement also includes customary covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness and liens, engage in mergers, acquisitions and dispositions, and engage in transactions with affiliates, as well as restrict certain payments, including dividends and share buybacks.
