Long-Term Debt

7. Long-Term Debt

The Company had no long-term debt at December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014.

On March 2, 2011, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a bank.  On September 27, 2013, the Company amended the credit agreement and increased its borrowing availability to $50.0 million (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”).  The Company’s borrowings are principally secured by its accounts receivable, inventories and equipment.  In addition, certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company have guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement and such subsidiaries have secured the obligations by the pledge of certain of the assets of such subsidiaries.  The Credit Agreement expires on April 27, 2016 and all borrowed funds are due and payable at that time.  The Company is required to make quarterly interest payments on borrowed funds.  The Credit Agreement limits the incurrence of additional indebtedness, requires the maintenance of certain financial ratios, restricts the Company and its subsidiaries’ ability to pay cash dividends and contains other covenants customary in agreements of this type.  The interest rate for borrowings under the Credit Agreement is a LIBOR based rate with a margin spread of 250 to 325 basis points depending upon the maintenance of certain ratios.  At December 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.   At December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, the Company had standby letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $42,000 and $51,000, respectively.  Additional borrowings available under the Credit Agreement at December 31, 2014 were approximately $50.0 million.
