FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS

NOTE 7 - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

Bank Credit Facility

The Company has a credit facility with Square 1 Bank that provides for borrowings up to $15 million or 85% of eligible accounts receivable, whichever is less. The credit facility expires on March 1, 2017. Borrowings under this line of credit bear interest at the bank’s prime rate. There were no borrowings outstanding under this credit facility at November 30, 2016 or February 29, 2016.

The bank credit facility contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum level of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other noncash charges (EBITDA) and a minimum debt coverage ratio, both measured monthly on a rolling 12-month basis. At November 30, 2016, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the credit facility.

1.625% Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes

As of November 30, 2016, the Company had $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a rate of 1.625% per year payable in cash on May 15 and November 15 of each year beginning on November 15, 2015. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2020 unless earlier converted or repurchased in accordance with their terms. The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to their stated maturity date. The Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s election, based on an initial conversion rate of 36.2398 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $27.594 per share of common stock, subject to customary adjustments. Holders may convert their Notes at their option at any time prior to November 15, 2019 upon the occurrence of certain events in the future, as defined in the indenture agreement dated May 6, 2015 (the “Indenture”). During the period from November 15, 2019 to May 13, 2020, holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes regardless of the foregoing conditions. The Company’s intent is to settle the principal amount of the Notes in cash upon conversion. If the conversion value exceeds the Note principal amount, the Company would deliver shares of its common stock in respect to the remainder of its conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount (the “conversion spread”). The shares associated with the conversion spread, if any, would be included in the denominator for the computation of diluted earnings per share, with such shares calculated using the average closing price of the Company’s common stock during each period. As of November 30, 2016, none of the conditions allowing holders of the Notes to convert have been met.

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase their Notes at a repurchase price of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the fundamental change repurchase date.

In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to maturity, the Company will increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such a corporate event in certain circumstances. In such event, an aggregate of up to 2.5 million additional shares of common stock could be issued upon conversions in connection with such corporate events, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate.

Balances attributable to the Notes consist of the following (in thousands):

November 30, February 29,
      2016       2016
Principal $          172,500   $         172,500
Less:   Unamortized debt discount   (24,371 ) (29,002 )
Unamortized debt issuance costs (3,108 )   (3,698 )
Net carrying amount of the Notes $ 145,021 $ 139,800  

The Notes are carried at their principal amount, net of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs, and are not carried at fair value at each period end. The issuance date fair value of the liability component of the Notes in the amount of $138.9 million was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis, in which the projected interest and principal payments were discounted back to the issuance date of the Notes at a market interest rate for nonconvertible debt of 6.2%, which represents a Level 3 fair value measurement. The debt discount of $33.6 million is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method with an effective interest rate of 6.2% over the period from the issuance date through the contractual maturity date of the Notes of May 15, 2020. The approximate fair value of the Notes as of November 30, 2016 was $166 million, which was estimated on the basis of inputs that are observable in the market and which is considered a Level 2 measurement method in the fair value hierarchy.

See Note 14 for information related to interest expense on the Notes.
