Debt
Credit Agreement
On April 5, 2022, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other named lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement, which matures on April 5, 2027, provides for revolving loans, swingline loans and letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $650,000.
The Company may borrow, prepay, and re-borrow principal under the Credit Agreement during its term. Advances under the Credit Agreement can be either Adjusted Term SOFR loans or base rate loans. SOFR rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such calculation plus 0.10% plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.25%. Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the administrative agent as its “prime rate”, and (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth therein, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%.
On November 14, 2023, in connection and concurrently with the closing of the Marucci acquisition, the Company entered into the First Amendment amending the Credit Agreement. The First Amendment provided the Company with the Incremental Term A Loan in an amount of $400,000 and the Delayed Draw Term Loan in an amount of $200,000, each of which are permitted under the Credit Agreement, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The Incremental Term A Loan was fully funded on November 14, 2023 and used to fund a portion of the consideration owed under the Marucci acquisition. The Delayed Draw Term Loan was available to the Company for up to six months commencing on December 6, 2023, until the earlier of (a) May 14, 2024 and (b) the date on which the Delayed Draw Term commitments have been terminated. Each Incremental Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortization payments of principal at a rate of 5.00% per annum. The Incremental Term Loans are in the form of term SOFR loans and base rate loans, at the option of the Company, and have an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50% for base rate loans and 1.50% to 2.50% for term SOFR loans, subject to adjustment provisions. Each Incremental Term Loan has a maturity date of April 5, 2027, consistent with the Credit Agreement.
The Company paid $10,063 in debt issuance costs, of which $6,709 were allocated to the Incremental Term A Loan and $3,354 were allocated to the Delayed Draw Term Loan. Loan fees allocated to the Incremental Term A Loan are amortized using the interest method over the term of the Credit Agreement. Loan fees allocated to the Delayed Draw Term Loan were deferred as an asset until the debt was drawn.
On May 13, 2024, the Company borrowed the full amount of $200,000 of the Delayed Draw Term Loan. The fees were reclassified to a contra-liability account and amortized over the term of the drawn debt using the interest method.
On July 31, 2024 and December 20, 2024, the Company entered into the Third and Fourth Amendments to the Credit Agreement, respectively, to secure an improved covenant profile on its capital structure to provide more flexibility given the uncertain macro environment. The Company paid $3,490 in loan fees for the Third and Fourth Amendments, of which $3,433 were allocated among the revolver and the Incremental Term Loans to be amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Agreement.
Amended Credit Agreement
On October 24, 2025, the Company entered into the Fifth Amendment among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swingline lender and L/C issuer, and a group of lenders party thereto. The Fifth Amendment amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2022, and the Guaranty and Security Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2022, as amended prior to the Fifth Amendment, which secures the obligations under the Credit Agreement in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the lenders and other secured parties. Terms not otherwise defined below will have the meaning as set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement.
The Fifth Amendment, among other things, amends the Credit Agreement to replace the existing loans provided under the Credit Agreement with (i) the Term Loan in the aggregate outstanding amount of $537,500, which will be repaid by the Company in quarterly installments in the amount of $6,719, (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount of up to $500,000, with sub-facilities for swing line loans in an aggregate amount of up to $25,000 and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $25,000, and (iii) an incremental loan facility, subject to additional terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, in an aggregate amount of up to $175,000 plus an unlimited amount so long as after giving effect to the incurrence of such incremental loans, on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is less than 3.25. To the extent not previously paid, all then-outstanding amounts under the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility are due and payable on October 24, 2030.
The Term Loan and advances under the Revolving Credit Facility can be either SOFR loans or base rate loans. SOFR loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to the term SOFR for such calculation plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.50%. Base rate loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the Agent as its “prime rate,” and (iii) term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.50%.
In connection with the Fifth Amendment, the Company borrowed $710,000 under the Amended Credit Agreement consisting of the $537,500 Term Loan and $172,500 under the Revolving Credit Facility, which was used to repay all outstanding amounts owed under the Credit Agreement prior to the Fifth Amendment and for general corporate purposes.
The Company paid $6,012 in debt issuance costs in connection with the Fifth Amendment, of which $5,782 were allocated between the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility to be amortized over the term of the Amended Credit Agreement.
Additionally, the Company had $8,090 of remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Credit Agreement, of which $6,313 were carried forward to the Amended Credit Agreement and $1,777 were written off as a loss on debt extinguishment. Debt issuance costs related to the Term Loan are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Term Loan. Debt issuance costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility are presented in other non-current assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, restricts the Company’s ability to make certain payments and engage in certain transactions, and requires that the Company satisfy customary financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with the covenants as of January 2, 2026.
At January 2, 2026, the one-month SOFR and three-month SOFR rates were 3.78% and 4.00%, respectively. At January 2, 2026, our weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowing was 6.05%.

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.
