Debt | Note H – Debt The following table summarizes our long-term debt outstanding at May 31, 2025 and 2024:
Maturities of long-term debt in the next five fiscal years, and the remaining years thereafter, are as follows:
Long-Term Debt
On August 23, 2019, two of our European subsidiaries issued the Original Senior Notes. The Original Series A Senior Note was to be repaid in the principal amount of €30,000, together with accrued interest, on August 23, 2029, with the remaining €6,700 principal amount payable on August 23, 2031, together with accrued interest. The Original Series B Senior Notes were to be repaid in the aggregate principal amount of €23,300, together with accrued interest, on August 23, 2031, with the remaining €31,700 aggregate principal amount payable on August 23, 2034, together with accrued interest. Debt issuance costs of $134 were incurred in connection with the issuance of the Original Senior Notes and have been recorded on our consolidated balance sheets within long-term debt as a contra-liability. In anticipation of the Separation, on November 1, 2023, we amended and restated the interest rate on both the Original Series A Senior Note, from 1.56% to 2.06%, and the Original Series B Senior Notes, from 1.90% to 2.40%. On May 17, 2024, in anticipation of the deconsolidation of our former Sustainable Energy Solutions business, we entered into a Note Purchase and Exchange Agreement in which the holders of the Original Senior Notes agreed to exchange such notes as consideration for Worthington Enterprises to issue the New Senior Notes to the same holders of the Original Senior Notes through a private placement agreement pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase and Exchange Agreement in the aggregate principal amounts of €36,700 and €55,000, respectively, and upon the same terms as the Original Senior Notes. The debt issuance costs for each of the New Senior Notes will continue to be amortized, through interest expense, in our consolidated statements of earnings over the same respective terms of the Original Senior Notes. The unamortized portion of the debt issuance costs were $77 and $87 at May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
On July 28, 2017, we issued the 2032 Notes. The 2032 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.30%. The 2032 Notes were sold to the public at 99.901% of the principal amount thereof, to yield 4.309% to maturity. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to repay amounts then outstanding under our then current revolving credit facility and a prior revolving trade accounts receivable securitization facility. We entered into an interest rate swap in June 2017, in anticipation of the issuance of the 2032 Notes. The interest rate swap had a notional amount of $150,000 to hedge the risk of changes in the semi-annual interest rate payments attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate during the several days leading up to the issuance of the 2032 Notes. Upon pricing of the 2032 Notes, the derivative instrument was settled resulting in a gain of approximately $3,098, which was reflected in AOCI. Approximately $2,116 and $198 were allocated to debt issuance costs and the debt discount, respectively. The debt issuance costs and the debt discount have been recorded on our consolidated balance sheets within long-term debt as a contra-liability. Each will continue to be amortized, through interest expense, in our consolidated statements of earnings over the term of the 2032 Notes. The unamortized portions of the debt issuance costs and the debt discount were $1,011 and $95, respectively, at May 31, 2025 and $1,152 and $108, respectively, at May 31, 2024.
On April 15, 2014, we issued the 2026 Notes. During fiscal 2023, we purchased approximately $6,377 of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes in open market transactions, leaving $243,623 within long-term debt at May 31, 2023. On June 29, 2023, we notified the trustee under the indenture to which the 2026 Notes are subject that we had elected to redeem in full the 2026 Notes. On July 28, 2023, we redeemed, in full, the 2026 Notes at a price that approximated the par value of the debt of $243,623. In connection with the debt redemption, we recognized a non-cash loss of $1,534 related primarily to unamortized debt issuance costs and amounts deferred in AOCI associated with an interest rate swap executed prior to the issuance of the 2026 Notes.
On August 10, 2012, we issued the 2024 Notes. The 2024 Notes bore interest at a rate of 4.60%. On December 6, 2023, we used the proceeds received from Worthington Steel in connection with the Separation to pay off in full the 2024 Notes. The payoff amount consisted of $150,000 in principal plus accrued interest of $500.
Other Financing Arrangements
We maintain the Credit Facility, $500,000 multi-year revolving credit facility, which was amended and restated on September 27, 2023, to extend the final maturity from August 20, 2026 to September 27, 2028, while keeping in place $500,000 in committed financing. We have the option to borrow at rates equal to an applicable margin over the Simple SOFR, the Prime Rate of PNC Bank, National Association or the Overnight Bank Funding Rate. The applicable margin is determined by our Total Leverage Ratio. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility at May 31, 2025, leaving $500,000 available for use. |
