| Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Debt | Debt The Company maintains credit facilities to finance acquisitions, to fund the purchase of real estate, construction equipment, plants and other fixed assets, and for general working capital purposes. Debt at September 30, 2020 and 2019 consisted of the following (in thousands):
The Company and each of its subsidiaries are parties to a credit agreement with BBVA USA (formerly known as Compass Bank), as agent, issuing bank and a lender, and certain other lenders (as amended and restated, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Following an amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement in July 2020, the principal amount of Term Loan advances made prior to April 30, 2020 is repaid in quarterly installments of $2,050,000, and the principal amount of Term Loan advances made on or after April 30, 2020 is repaid in quarterly installments of $1,200,000, in each case beginning on September 30, 2020 and at the end of each calendar quarter thereafter. Interest is due and payable on the last business day of each month. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries pay, among other fees: (i) a quarterly unused revolver commitment fee equal to 0.20% of the daily average amount of unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility during the quarter, (ii) a quarterly letter of credit fee equal to the greater of (A) $600 or (B) the product of either 0.70% or 0.75% (depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio) and the aggregate average daily undrawn amounts of all letters of credit outstanding during the quarter and (iii) a letter of credit facility fee equal to 0.20% of the face amount of each such letter of credit. All outstanding advances under the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility are due and payable in full on October 1, 2024. The Company generally may (and must, under certain circumstances), subject to various requirements, prepay all or a portion of the outstanding balance of the advances, together with accrued interest thereon, prior to their contractual maturity.
At September 30, 2020 and 2019, there was $92.9 million and $44.7 million, respectively, of principal outstanding under the Term Loan, $0.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of principal outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, and availability of $39.3 million and $14.4 million, respectively, under the Revolving Credit Facility, including reduction for outstanding letters of credit.
The Credit Agreement contains customary negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Company’s ability to make acquisitions, make loans or advances, make capital expenditures and investments, pay dividends, create or incur indebtedness, create liens, wind up or dissolve, consolidate, merge or liquidate, or sell, transfer or dispose of assets. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to satisfy certain financial covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20-to-1.00 and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 2.75-to-1.00, subject to certain adjustments. At September 30, 2020 and 2019,
the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio was 2.85-to-1.00 and 4.04-to-1.00, respectively, and the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio was 1.08-to-1.00 and 0.66-to-1.00, respectively. At both September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.
From time to time, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge against the risk of changes in interest rates. These interest rate swap agreements do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting treatment under GAAP. At September 30, 2020 and 2019, the aggregate notional value of these interest rate swap agreements was $46.5 million and $21.5 million, respectively, and the fair value was $(1.7) million and $(0.3) million, respectively, which is included within other liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The scheduled contractual repayment terms of long-term debt at September 30, 2020 were as follows:
Interest expense was $3.6 million and $3.3 million for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Amortization of deferred debt issuance costs and debt discounts included in interest expense was $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
