REVOLVING BANK LOAN AND LONG-TERM DEBT | 10.The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) effective November 18, 2011. The Company entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement effective March 20, 2014 to, among other things, (i) increase the Revolving Commitment to $18,000,000 from $15,000,000, (ii) terminate the Term Loan Commitment upon the repayment in full of the outstanding principal balance (and accrued interest thereon), (iii) modify the Borrowing Base calculation to provide for borrowing availability in respect of new Capital Expenditures, (iv) decrease the interest rates on the Revolving Loans beginning in the third quarter of 2014, and (v) extend the maturity date to May 1, 2016, in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Second Amendment. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, machinery, equipment, vehicles, certain real estate and the common stock of all of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company entered into a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement effective June 28, 2014 to defer the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant until the third quarter of fiscal 2014 and to add a minimum Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) requirement of $2,000,000 for the twelve months ended June 28, 2014, which the Company has met. Borrowings bear interest based on a London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or prime rate based option.
The Credit Agreement either limits or requires prior approval by the lender of additional borrowings, acquisition of stock of other companies, purchase of treasury shares and payment of cash dividends. Payment of accrued interest is due monthly or at the end of the applicable LIBOR period.
The Credit Agreement, as amended, also provides for the following:
Definitions under the Credit Agreement as amended are as follows:
As noted above, the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement called for the payoff of the then outstanding balance of the term loan with borrowings against the new revolving line of credit. Outstanding funded debt (term debt and revolving credit) was $5,400,000 as of June 28, 2014 compared to $3,658,000 at June 29, 2013. The highest balance outstanding during the first six months of 2014 and 2013 was $8,000,000 and $3,908,000, respectively. Average outstanding funded debt was $5,175,000 and $3,721,000 for the first six months of 2014 and 2013, respectively. At June 28, 2014, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $5,415,000. At all times since the inception of the Credit Agreement, the Company has had sufficient qualifying and eligible assets such that the available borrowing capacity exceeded the cash needs of the Company and this situation is expected to continue for the foreseeable future.
The Company believes that its existing cash balance, anticipated cash flow from operations and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to cover expected cash needs, including planned capital expenditures, for the next twelve months. The Company expects to meet or exceed the Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.15 to 1.00 for all succeeding Computation Periods.
