Long-Term Debt

The Company has a credit facility consisting of a revolving line of credit of $100.0 million, expiring in June 2020. As of October 3, 2017, the Company had $65.0 million of indebtedness and $3.0 million of letters of credit outstanding under the revolving line of credit. The Company’s ability to borrow funds pursuant to the revolving line of credit is further limited by the requirement that it comply with the revolving line of credit’s financial covenants upon the measurement dates specified therein. These financial covenants include a maximum lease-adjusted leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit agreement also contains other customary covenants, including limitations on additional borrowings, acquisitions, dividend payments and lease commitments.

Subsequent to the three quarters ended October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an amendment to its credit facility on November 8, 2017. Among other things, the amendment (i) increases the lease adjusted leverage ratios and decreases the fixed charge coverage ratios, (ii) increases the interest rate margin applicable to the total lease adjusted leverage levels at and above 3.75:1.00, (iii) adds mandatory prepayments of $2.5 million per quarter beginning with the fourth quarter of 2017, (iv) provides for a maturity date of June 4, 2019, (v) modifies the capital expenditure covenant so that it applies to the capital expenditures and not only growth capital expenditures and permits total capital expenditures of up to $22.0 million in 2017 and $10.0 million per year thereafter, and (vi) makes certain other changes. Borrowings under the agreement as amended bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) LIBOR plus 2.50% to 3.75%, based on the lease-adjusted leverage ratio or (ii) the highest of the following rates plus 1.50% to 2.75%: (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; (b) the Bank of America prime rate or (c) the one month LIBOR plus 1.00%. The credit facility includes a commitment fee of 0.35% to 0.55%, based on the lease-adjusted leverage ratio, per year on any unused portion of the credit facility.

The credit facility bore interest between 3.77% and 6.50% during the first three quarters of 2017. The Company also maintains outstanding letters of credit to secure obligations under its workers’ compensation program and certain lease obligations. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of October 3, 2017.
