DEBT

 

At May 2, 2026, a subsidiary of the Company maintained unsecured revolving credit facilities with banks aggregating $100 million (the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities expire from September 10, 2027 to May 30, 2028 and any borrowings would currently bear interest at 1.15% above the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). There were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facilities at May 2, 2026 or May 3, 2025. At May 2, 2026, $2.7 million of the Credit Facilities was reserved for standby letters of credit and $97.3 million was available for borrowings.

 

A subsidiary of the Company also maintains an unsecured revolving term loan facility with a national bank aggregating $50 million (the “Loan Facility”). There were no borrowings outstanding under the Loan Facility at May 2, 2026 or May 3, 2025. The Loan Facility expires December 31, 2027 and borrowings would bear interest at 1.15% above the adjusted daily SOFR.

 

The Credit Facilities and Loan Facility require the subsidiary to maintain certain financial ratios, including debt to net worth and debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreements) and contain other restrictions, none of which are expected to have a material effect on its operations or financial position. At May 2, 2026, the subsidiary was in compliance with all loan covenants.

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
