5. REVOLVING BANK LOAN

 

The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) effective November 18, 2011. The Company entered into the Eighth Amendment to Credit Agreement effective May 26, 2017. The Company had previously entered into seven separate amendments to the Credit Agreement. Cumulatively, the amendments were entered into by the Company to, among other things, (i) modify certain of the financial covenants, (ii) adjust the amount of the Revolving Commitment,  (iii) terminate the Term Loan Commitment upon the repayment in full of the outstanding principal balance (and accrued interest thereon) of the Term Loan, (iv) modify the Borrowing Base calculation to provide for borrowing availability in respect of new Capital Expenditures, (v) decrease the interest rates on the Revolving Loans, (vi) extend the maturity date and (vii) decrease the Letter of Credit fee rate. 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. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement 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 provides for the following:

 

·

The Revolving Commitment is $20,000,000.

·

Borrowings under the Revolving Commitment are limited to (a) 80% of eligible accounts receivable, (b) the lesser of 50% of eligible inventories and $8,500,000 plus (c) 80% of new qualifying Capital Expenditures not to exceed $5,500,000 (excluding the aggregate amount of any Capital Expenditures financed with the proceeds of a Revolving Line advance) with respect to each of Fiscal Years 2016 and 2017.

·

The Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is not permitted to be below 1.15 to 1.0 for each trailing twelve month period measured at the end of each Fiscal Quarter.

·

The Company must not permit Tangible Net Worth as of the last day of any future Computation Period to be less than $31,000,000 (provided that the required amount of Tangible Net Worth shall increase (but not decrease) by an amount equal to 50% of the Consolidated Net Income for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year). Therefore, the required Tangible Net Worth as of December 30, 2017 was $33,752,000.

·

The Balance Sheet Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any Computation Period may not exceed 1.00 to 1.00.

·

The maturity date of the credit facility is May 1, 2020.

·

Interest rate pricing for the revolving credit facility is currently LIBOR plus 2.25% or the prime rate.

 

Definitions under the Credit Agreement as amended are as follows:

 

·

Tangible Net Worth is defined as net worth plus subordinated debt, minus intangible assets (goodwill, intellectual property, prepaid expenses, deposits and deferred charges), minus all obligations owed to the Company or any of its subsidiaries by any affiliate or any or its subsidiaries and minus all loans owed by its officers, stockholders, subsidiaries or employees.

·

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as, for any computation period, the ratio of (a) the sum for such period of (i) EBITDA, as defined, minus (ii) the sum of income taxes paid in cash and all unfinanced capital expenditures to (b) the sum for such period of interest expense related to the Credit Agreement.

·

Balance Sheet Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Total Debt to Tangible Net Worth.

·

EBITDA means for any Computation Period (or another time period to the extent expressly provided for in the Credit Agreement) the sum of the following with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries each as determined in accordance with GAAP: (a) Consolidated Net Income, plus (b) federal, state and other income taxes deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (c) Interest Expense deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (d) depreciation, depletion and amortization expense deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (e) for 2014, charges directly related to the closing and reclamation of the Pueblo aggregates mining site, plus (f) any other non-cash charges and any extraordinary charges deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, including any asset impairment charges (including write downs of goodwill), minus (g) any gains from Asset Dispositions, any extraordinary gains and any gains from discontinued operations included in the determination of Consolidated Net Income.

 

Outstanding funded revolving debt was $3,500,000 as of December 30, 2017 compared to $2,000,000 as of December 31, 2016. The highest balance outstanding during 2017 and 2016 was $10,000,000 and $7,500,000 respectively. Average outstanding funded debt was $5,909,000 and $3,712,000 for 2017 and 2016, respectively. At December 30, 2017, the Company had outstanding letters of credit (LOC) totaling $6,205,000 including a second LOC of $1,250,000 outstanding at year end while the Company transitioned to a new issuer of its reclamation bonds. 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 except for the expenditures related to the acquisition of the necessary equipment needed to begin mining an aggregates property near Colorado Springs should TMC succeed in obtaining the required mining permits from the State of Colorado and El Paso County. As of December 30, 2017 the Company has invested and capitalized approximately $5,430,000 of deferred development expenditures related to this aggregates property. The Company expects to be in compliance with all debt covenants, as amended, throughout the facility’s remaining term.
