The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt obligations as of March 31, 2024 was $ 2,271 million. The fair value is based on quoted Level 2 market prices of the Company’s debt as of March 31, 2024. The difference between the fair value and carrying value of the long-term debt is driven primarily by trends in the financial markets. Senior Secured Credit Facility In March 2024, the Company and ATI entered into Amendment No. 4 ("Amendment") to the Credit Agreement, after giving effect to a $ 101 million principal prepayment, to remove the 0.10 % credit spread adjustment to the SOFR benchmark for all available interest periods and increase the commitments under the existing Revolving Credit Facility by $ 100 million. The Amendment also extended the maturity of the existing Term Loan from 2026 to 2031 and extended the existing Revolving Credit Facility termination date from 2025 to 2029 . With the exception of the items noted above, the terms of the extended Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility are materially the same as they were prior to the Amendment. The Amendment was treated as a modification to the Senior Secured Credit Facility under GAAP. The Company recorded $ 4 million as new deferred financing fees in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2024 and expensed $ 1 million of prior deferred financing fees in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income during the first quarter of 2024. The borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are collateralized by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company, ATI and certain existing and future U.S. subsidiary guarantors, as provided in the Credit Agreement. Interest on the Term Loan, as of March 31, 2024 , is either (a) 1.75 % over a SOFR rate on deposits in U.S. dollars for one-, three- or six-month periods (or a twelve-month period if, at the time of the borrowing, consented to by all relevant lenders and the administrative agent) ("Term SOFR"), or (b) 0.75 % over the greater of the prime lending rate as quoted by the administrative agent, the Term SOFR Rate for an interest period of one month plus 1.00 % and the federal funds effective rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 0.50 %, subject to a 1.00 % floor (the "Base Rate"). As of March 31, 2024, the Company elected to pay the lowest all-in rate of Term SOFR plus the applicable margin, or 7.07 %, on the Term Loan. The Credit Agreement requires minimum quarterly principal payments on the Term Loan, as well as prepayments from certain net cash proceeds of non-ordinary course asset sales and casualty and condemnation events, the incurrence of certain debt and from a percentage of excess cash flow, if applicable. The minimum required quarterly principal payment on the Term Loan through its maturity date of March 2031 is $ 1 million. As of March 31, 2024, there had been no payments required for certain net cash proceeds of non-ordinary course asset sales and casualty and condemnation events. The remaining principal balance is due upon maturity. The Senior Secured Credit Facility also provides a Revolving Credit Facility, net of an allowance for up to $ 75 million in outstanding letters of credit commitments. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 , the Company made no withdrawals on the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $ 745 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $ 5 million in letters of credit. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable base rate plus an applicable margin based on the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio. When the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio is above 4.00 x, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is (a) 0.75 % over the Base Rate or (b) 1.75 % over the Term SOFR Rate; when the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio is equal to or less than 4.00 x and above 3.50 x, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is (i) 0.50 % over the Base Rate or (ii) 1.50 % over the Term SOFR Rate; and when the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio is equal to or below 3.50 x, interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is (y) 0.25 % over the Base Rate or (z) 1.25 % over the Term SOFR Rate. As of March 31, 2024, the applicable margin for the Revolving Credit Facility was 1.25 %. In addition, there is an annual commitment fee, based on the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio, on the average unused revolving credit borrowings available under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2024, the commitment fee was 0.25 %. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are payable at the option of the Company throughout the term of the Revolving Credit Facility with the balance due in March 2029. The Senior Secured Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a specified maximum first lien net leverage ratio of 5.50 x when revolving loan commitments remain outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility at the end of a fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility; however, the Company would have been in compliance with the maximum first lien net leverage ratio, achieving a ( 0.03 x) ratio. Additionally, within the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility, a first lien net leverage ratio at or below 4.00 x results in the elimination of excess cash flow payments on the Senior Secured Credit Facility for the applicable year. In addition, the Credit Agreement, among other things, includes customary restrictions (subject to certain exceptions) on the Company’s ability to incur certain indebtedness, grant certain liens, make certain investments, engage in acquisitions, consolidations and mergers, declare or pay certain dividends or repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement. Senior Notes Each series of the Senior Notes is unsecured and is guaranteed by each of ATI’s domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under or guarantees the Senior Secured Credit Facility and is unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by any of ATI’s future domestic subsidiaries that are borrowers under or guarantee the Senior Secured Credit Facility. None of ATI’s domestic subsidiaries currently guarantee its obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, and therefore none of ATI’s domestic subsidiaries currently guarantee any series of the Senior Notes. The indentures governing the Senior Notes contain negative covenants restricting or limiting the Company’s ability to, among other things: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, incur liens, pay dividends on, redeem or repurchase the Company’s capital stock, make certain investments, permit payment or dividend restrictions on certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, sell assets, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and consolidate or merge or sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the indentures governing the Senior Notes. ATI may from time to time seek to retire its Senior Notes through cash purchases, exchanges for equity securities, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, contractual redemptions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors and will be in accordance with the respective indenture governing such notes. The amounts involved may be material. Some or all of the 4.75 % Senior Notes may be redeemed at any time at redemption prices specified in the indenture governing such notes. Some or all of the 5.875 % Senior Notes may be redeemed prior to June 1, 2024 by paying a price equal to 100.00 % of the principal amount being redeemed, plus an “applicable premium”. At any time on or after June 1, 2024 , ATI may redeem some or all of the 5.875 % Senior Notes at redemption prices specified in the indenture governing such notes. Prior to January 30, 2026 , ATI may redeem some or all of the 3.75 % Senior Notes by paying a price equal to 100.00 % of the principal amount being redeemed, plus an “applicable premium”. At any time on or after January 30, 2026 , ATI may redeem some or all of the 3.75 % Senior Notes at redemption prices specified in the indenture governing such notes. |
