2025 Convertible Notes
On November 27, 2020, the Company issued $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes (the “2025 Convertible Notes”) to Magnetar Capital, LLC (“Magnetar”) under an indenture, dated as of November 27, 2020, between Legacy BARK and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Indenture”). The Company received net proceeds of approximately $74.7 million from the sale of the 2025 Convertible Notes, after deducting fees and expenses of approximately $0.3 million. The Company recorded the expenses associated with the issuance of the 2025 Convertible Notes as a discount to the note and will amortize the expenses over the term of the note. The 2025 Convertible Notes will mature on December 1, 2025, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.
The 2025 Convertible Notes are governed by the Indenture. The 2025 Convertible Notes bear interest at the annual rate of 5.50%, payable entirely in payment-in-kind annually on December 1st of each year commencing December 1, 2021, compounded annually. The accrued interest of $2.1 million and $4.4 million was paid-in-kind through an increase of the outstanding principal on the 2025 Convertible Notes on December 1, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
If the 2025 Convertible Notes are not converted into common stock by the maturity date, the Company must repay the outstanding principal amount plus accrued interest.
The 2025 Convertible Notes contain call and put options to be settled in cash contingent upon the occurrence of a change of control and a default interest rate increase of 3.0% applicable upon the occurrence of an event of default that when evaluated under the guidance of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, are embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation at fair value. The fair value calculation includes Level 3 inputs including the estimated fair value of the
Company’s common stock and assumptions regarding the probability that the contingent call or put will be exercised or an event of default will occur. Management determined that the probability that the contingent events will occur was near zero at inception and has remained near zero as of September 30, 2024. Therefore, the Company did not record a derivative liability related to these features as of September 30, 2024. The Company will assess the probability of occurrence quarterly during the term of the 2025 Convertible Notes.
On November 2, 2023, the Company repurchased $45.0 million of the $83.5 million of outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes from entities affiliated with Magnetar Financial, LLC (collectively, the “Holders”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a negotiated note purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) among the Company and the Holders.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company repurchased $45.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes plus $2.2 million of accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding the repurchase date, from the Holders for a total cash purchase price of $44.4 million. In addition, $1.0 million of unamortized deferred financing fees were derecognized from the Company’s balance sheet on the date of extinguishment. The accelerated deferred financing fees were recognized as a component of gain on extinguishment of debt. The Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $1.8 million in connection with the repurchase. If a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture) of the Company occurs at any time after the date of the Agreement and prior to the December 1, 2025 maturity date of the Notes, the Holders are also entitled to receive an additional cash “true-up” payment from the Company, totaling, in the aggregate for all Holders, either (i) $11.3 million in the case that the Company elects to redeem all of the Notes outstanding at the time of such Change of Control or (ii) $4.5 million in the case that the Holders elect to require the Company to repurchase all of the 2025 Convertible Notes outstanding at the time of such Change of Control any other case, in each case, in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the Agreement.
As of both September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had $40.6 million of outstanding borrowings under the note purchase agreement governing the purchase and sale of the 2025 Convertible Notes agreement.
Western Alliance Bank—Revolving Line of Credit
In October 2017, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with and issued a warrant to purchase preferred stock (“Initial Western Alliance Warrant”) to Western Alliance Bank (“Western Alliance”), which provide for a revolving line of credit (as amended, the “Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $35.0 million, subject to borrowing base limitations derived from advance rates derived from the Company’s eligible subscription revenues and eligible accounts receivable. The Credit Facility has been amended several times, most recently in December 2023. After giving effect to this most recent amendment, the maturity date of the Credit Facility is December 13, 2024. Certain of the Company’s obligations to Western Alliance and under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of their assets. The Company is evaluating alternative options or further renewal of the Credit Facility.
The interest rate for borrowings under the Credit Facility is equal to (a)(i) the greater of the prime rate that is published in the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal from time to time and (ii) five and one quarter percent (5.25%) per annum, plus (b) half of one percent (0.50%), per annum.
The Credit Facility has a borrowing base subject to an amount equal to eighty percent (80.00%) of the Company’s trailing three months of subscription revenue and an amount equal to (80.00%) of certain of the Company’s customer accounts receivable when a collateral audit is performed and sixty percent (60.00%) when no such collateral audit is performed. Western Alliance has first perfected security in substantially all of the Company’s assets, including its rights to its intellectual property.
The Credit Facility requires the Company to comply with certain financial and performance covenants, including, among other things, minimum cash deposits with Western Alliance. The Credit Facility also contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, limitations or prohibitions on repurchasing common shares, declaring and paying dividends and other distributions, making payments in respect of subordinated debt or our 2025 Convertible Notes, incurring indebtedness, making loans and investments, incurring liens, or entering into mergers, asset sales and transactions with affiliates.
As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants.
