Credit Agreement

On November 19, 2015, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with a group of banks (the “Banks”), for which Bank of Montreal is acting as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”).  The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 19, 2014, as amended, among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of Montreal, as administrative agent. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Banks agreed to provide (i) term loans (“Term Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $160,000, which were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition of Yodlee, and (ii) revolving credit commitments in the aggregate amount of up to $100,000, which includes a $5,000 subfacility for the issuance of letters of credit.

Obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries. In accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement, dated November 19, 2015 (the “Security Agreement”), among the Company, the Debtors party thereto, the Banks and the Administrative Agent, obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets and the Company’s pledge of 66% of the voting equity and 100% of the non-voting equity of certain of its first-tier foreign subsidiaries. Future borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement may be used to finance capital expenditures, working capital, permitted acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

Envestnet will pay interest on borrowings made under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at rates between 1.50 percent and 3.25 percent above LIBOR based on the Company’s total leverage ratio. Borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are scheduled to mature on November 19, 2018. The Term Notes are payable in quarterly installments of $2,000 per installment and commenced in March 2016, with the final payment of all remaining term loan principal due and payable on the scheduled maturity date. Within 90 days of each year-end, beginning December 31, 2016, an excess cash flow prepayment, as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, may also be required if the Company’s total leverage ratio is greater than 2.0 to 1.0 as of the end of the mostly recently completed two consecutive fiscal quarters of the Company. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company made an excess cash flow payment of $31,862. As of June 30, 2017, the Company estimated the 2018 prepayment to be approximately $32,206.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary conditions, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The covenants include certain financial covenants requiring Envestnet to maintain compliance with a maximum senior leverage ratio, a maximum total leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and minimum adjusted EBITDA, and provisions that limit the ability of Envestnet and its subsidiaries to incur debt, make investments, sell assets, create liens, engage in transactions with affiliates, engage in mergers and acquisitions, pay dividends and other restricted payments, grant negative pledges and change their business.

As of June 30, 2017, there was $106,138 of Term Notes and no amounts outstanding on the revolving credit facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2017.

 

On July 18, 2017, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries amended and restated the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. See Note 21 for further discussion.

 

Convertible Notes

 

On December 15, 2014, the Company issued $172,500 of Convertible Notes. Net proceeds from the offering were $166,967. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.75 percent per annum payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2015.

 

The Convertible Notes are general unsecured obligations, subordinated in right of payment to our obligations under our Credit Agreement. The Convertible Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness. The Convertible Notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of any of our subsidiaries, other than to the extent the Convertible Notes are guaranteed in the future by our subsidiaries as described in the indenture and will be effectively subordinated to and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Certain of our subsidiaries guarantee our obligations under our Credit Agreement.

 

Upon the occurrence of a “fundamental change,” as defined in the indenture, the holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Convertible Notes for cash at 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes being purchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

 

The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock under certain circumstances prior to maturity at a conversion rate of 15.9022 shares per $1 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which represents a conversion price of $62.88 per share, subject to adjustment under certain conditions. Holders may convert their Convertible Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding July 1, 2019, only under the following circumstances: (a) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2015 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which the conversion occurs, is more than 130% of the conversion price of the Convertible Notes in effect on each applicable trading day; (b) during the five consecutive business-day period following any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price for the Convertible Notes for each such trading day was less than 98% of the last reported sale price of our common stock on such date multiplied by the then-current conversion rate; or (c) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as defined in the indenture. 

 

Upon conversion, the Company may pay cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and stock, as determined by the Company in its discretion. The Company’s stated policy is to settle the debt component of the Convertible Notes at least partially or wholly in cash. This policy is based both on the Company’s intent and the Company’s ability to settle these instruments in cash.

 

The Company has separately accounted for the liability and equity components of the Convertible Notes by allocating the proceeds from issuance of the Convertible Notes between the liability component and the embedded conversion option, or equity component. This allocation was done by first estimating an interest rate at the time of issuance for similar notes that do not include the embedded conversion option. The Company allocated $26,618 to the equity component, net of offering costs of $882. The Company recorded a discount on the Convertible Notes of $27,500 which is being accreted and recorded as additional interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $1,344 and $2,681, respectively, in accretion related to the discount. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized $1,292 and $2,578 respectively, in accretion related to the discount. The effective interest rate of the liability component of the Convertible Notes is equal to the stated interest rate plus the accretion of original issue discount. The effective interest rate on the liability component of the Convertible Notes for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 was 5.3%. The effective interest rate on the liability component of the Convertible Notes for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 was 6.1%.
