5. Long-term Debt and Financing Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the majority of debt outstanding was capital lease obligations. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under any domestic credit facility, or any credit arrangement entered into by a foreign subsidiary, other than letters of credit.

 

On June 16, 2011, the Company entered into a $35.0 million senior secured domestic revolving credit facility (“Domestic Credit Facility”) with a new financial institution, which replaced the Company’s prior $35.0 million domestic credit facility that was terminated by the Company. The Domestic Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The maturity date for the Domestic Credit Facility is June 15, 2016.

  

The loan agreement governing the Domestic Credit Facility contains a number of affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants. The Company is required to meet a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The fixed charge coverage ratio requires that, at the end of each fiscal quarter, the ratio of consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the loan agreement, to fixed charges may not be less than 1 to 1 for the immediately preceding 12 month period. In addition, the Company must maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined, as of the end of each fiscal quarter of no greater than 2.5 to 1.0. The Company must also meet a minimum consolidated EBITDA for the preceding 12 month period of $15.0 million through September 30, 2014 and $25.0 million thereafter. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at March 31, 2012.

 

The Company expects to fund its cash requirements from existing cash balances, cash generated by operations, and through borrowings, if needed, under its Domestic Credit Facility and foreign credit facilities. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had borrowing availability of $32.6 million under the Domestic Credit Facility net of standby letters of credit outstanding of $2.4 million. As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s foreign subsidiaries had various credit arrangements with banks totaling €9.0 million (approximately $12.0 million) all of which was available for borrowing, primarily restricted to borrowings by the respective foreign subsidiary.
