NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES

Inventories valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method are stated at the lower of cost or market and all other inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Replacement cost approximates current cost and the excess over LIFO cost was approximately $96.1 million and $95.1 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Allowances for excess and obsolete inventory totaled $8.1 million and $7.9 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimate of expected year-end inventory levels and costs, and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

Pre-tax LIFO expense was $1.0 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Inventories are comprised of the following:

NOTE 6 - PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

The Company sponsors a defined benefit pension plan (“GR Plan”) covering certain domestic employees. Benefits are based on each covered employee’s years of service and compensation. The GR Plan is funded in conformity with the funding requirements of applicable U.S. regulations. The GR Plan was closed to new participants effective January 1, 2008. Employees hired after this date, in eligible locations, participate in an enhanced 401(k) plan instead of the defined benefit pension plan. Employees hired prior to this date continue to accrue benefits.

Upon the Company’s acquisition of the assets of Fill-Rite and Sotera (“Fill-Rite”), a division of Tuthill Corporation, as of June 1, 2022, the Company established a defined benefit pension plan for certain Fill-Rite employees (“Fill-Rite Plan”). Effective January 31, 2024 the Fill-Rite Plan was frozen and will terminate on April 30, 2024. Participants in the Fill-Rite Plan will instead participate in the Company’s enhanced 401(k) plan.

Additionally, the Company sponsors defined contribution pension plans made available to all domestic and Canadian employees. The Company funds the cost of these benefits as incurred.

The Company also sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit postretirement health care plan that provides health benefits to certain domestic and Canadian retirees and eligible spouses and dependent children. The Company funds the cost of these benefits as incurred.

Total long-term debt, net$376,666$382,579

The carrying value of long term debt, including the current portion, approximates fair value as the variable interest rates approximate rates available to other market participants with comparable credit risk.

Senior Secured Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2022, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Credit Agreement with several lenders, which provides a term loan of $350.0 million (“Senior Term Loan Facility”) and a revolving credit facility up to $100.0 million (“Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a letter of credit sublimit of up to $15.0 million, as a sublimit of the Credit Facility, and a swing line subfacility of up to $20.0 million, as a sublimit of the Credit Facility. The Company borrowed $5.0 million under the Credit Facility, which, along with the Senior Term Loan Facility, and cash-on-hand and the proceeds of the Subordinated Credit Facility described below, was used to purchase the assets of Fill-Rite. The Company’s obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of its personal property, and each of Patterson Pump Company, AMT Pump Company, National Pump Company and Fill-Rite Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”) has guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and secured the obligations thereunder by granting a first priority lien in substantially all of such Guarantor’s personal property.

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement has a maturity date of May 31, 2027, with the Senior Term Loan Facility requiring quarterly installment payments which commenced on September 30, 2022 and continuing on the last day of each consecutive December, March, June and September thereafter.

At the option of the Company, borrowings under the Senior Term Loan Facility and under the Credit Facility bear interest at either a base rate or at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.75% to 1.75% for base rate loans and 1.75% to 2.75% for Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s senior leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2024, the applicable interest rate under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement was Adjusted Term SOFR plus 2.3%.

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement includes covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain maximum leverage ratios and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. On June 30, 2023, the Senior Secured Credit Agreement was amended to provide the Company with more flexibility by adjusting the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio to not less than 1.00 to 1.00 for each four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending June 30, 2023 through and including June 30, 2024 and not less than 1.10 to 1.00 for each four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending September 30, 2024 through and including December 31, 2024. We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of March 31, 2024.

Subordinated Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2022, the Company entered into an unsecured subordinated credit agreement (“Subordinated Credit Agreement”) which provides for a term loan of $90.0 million (the “Subordinated Credit Facility”). Each of the Guarantors has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Company under the Subordinated Credit Agreement. The proceeds from the Subordinated Credit Facility, along with cash-on-hand and the proceeds of the Senior Term Loan Facility described above, were used to purchase the assets of Fill-Rite.

The Subordinated Credit Agreement has a maturity date of December 1, 2027. If the Subordinated Credit Facility is prepaid prior to the second anniversary, such prepayment must be accompanied by a make-whole premium. If the Subordinated Credit Facility is prepaid after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary, such prepayment requires a prepayment fee of 2%, and if the Subordinated Credit Facility is prepaid after the third anniversary but prior to the fourth anniversary, such prepayment requires a prepayment fee of 1%.

At the option of the Company, borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility bear interest at either a base rate plus 8.0%, or at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus 9.1%. As of March 31, 2024 borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility bear interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus 9.1%.

The Subordinated Credit Agreement includes covenants subject to maximum leverage ratios. We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of March 31, 2024.

Interest Rate Derivatives

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company entered into interest rate swaps that hedge interest payments on its Senior Term Loan Facility. All swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges. The following table summarizes the notional amounts, related rates and remaining terms of the interest rate swap agreements as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Notional Amount · Average Fixed Rate
March 31, 2024December 31, 2023March 31, 2024December 31, 2023Term
Interest rate swaps$159,688$161,8754.1%4.1%Extending to May 2027

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was a receivable of $0.7 million as of March 31, 2024 and a payable of $1.4 million as of December 31, 2023. The fair value was based on inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that are observable either directly or indirectly and therefore considered level 2. The mark-to-market effect of interest rate swap agreements that are considered effective as hedges has been included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The interest rate swap agreements held by the Company on March 31, 2024 are expected to continue to be effective hedges.

The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments as recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets:
