CABELA’S INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in Thousands Except Share and Per Share Amounts)
January 1, 2011, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit agreements and unsecured
notes. We anticipate that we will continue to be in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit
agreements and unsecured notes through at least the next 12 months.
At December 31, 2011, Cabela’s was in compliance with its financial covenant requirements with a fixed
charge coverage ratio of 7.54 to 1, a leverage ratio of 1.27 to 1, and consolidated net worth that was $296,402 in
excess of the minimum.
The credit agreement includes a dividend provision limiting the amount that Cabela’s could pay to
stockholders, which at December 31, 2011, was not in excess of $155,209. The agreement also has a provision
permitting acceleration by the lenders in the event there is a change in control, as defined. In addition, the credit
agreement contains cross default provisions to other outstanding debt. In the event that the Company fails to
comply with these covenants, a default is triggered. In the event of default, all outstanding letters of credit and all
principal and outstanding interest would immediately become due and payable. The Company was in compliance
with all financial debt covenants at December 31, 2011, and January 1, 2011.
Effective June 29, 2010, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement for the
Company’s operations in Canada extending its $15,000 Canadian dollars (“CAD”) unsecured revolving credit
facility through June 30, 2013. The credit facility permits the issuance of up to $5,000 CAD in letters of credit,
which reduce the overall credit limit available under the credit facility. Interest is variable, computed at rates as
defined in the agreement, plus a margin, and payable monthly. There were no amounts outstanding at December 31,
2011, and January 1, 2011, under this credit agreement.
Advances made pursuant to the $415,000 credit agreement are classified as long-term debt. This agreement
does not contain limitations regarding the pay downs of revolving loans advanced; therefore, advances made prior
to November 2, 2015, pursuant to this agreement are considered long-term in nature.
The Company also has financing agreements that allow certain boat and all-terrain vehicle merchandise
vendors to give the Company extended payment terms. The vendors are responsible for all interest payments, with
certain exceptions, for the financing period and the financing company holds a security interest in the specific
inventory held by the Company. Cabela’s revolving credit facility limits this security interest to $100,000. The
extended payment terms to the vendor do not exceed one year. The outstanding liability, included in accounts
payable, was $524 and $537 at the end of 2011 and 2010, respectively.
