Bank Debt [Abstract]  
Bank Debt

(3)Bank Debt



On May 21, 2018, we executed the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with PNC, as administrative agent for our lenders. The $267 million credit facility is a combination of a $147 million term loan and $120 million revolver. The credit facility extends the term through May 21, 2022, reduces the debt service requirements, changes the borrower from Sunrise Coal to Hallador, and allows for investments in Hourglass Sands. The credit facility is collateralized primarily by Hallador’s assets. Our borrowing capacity increased by $6 million as of the effective date of the amended agreement.

 

Liquidity

 

Our bank debt at December 31, 2018, was $188 million (term - $130 million, revolver - $58 million). Our debt is recorded at cost which approximates fair value due to the variable interest rates in the agreement.  As of December 31, 2018, we had additional borrowing capacity of $62 million and total liquidity of $80 million.

 

Fees

 

We incurred $5.7 million in debt issuance costs at the closing of the new credit facility that were added to our bank debt.  Bank fees and other costs incurred in connection with the amended credit agreement and unamortized costs incurred in connection with the initial facility and a subsequent amendment totaled $8.8 million. These costs were deferred and are being amortized over the term of the loan. Unamortized costs as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, were $7.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

 

Covenants

 

The credit facility includes a Maximum Leverage Ratio (consolidated funded debt / trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA), calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the trailing twelve months, not to exceed the amounts below:

The credit facility also requires a Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (consolidated adjusted EBITDA / annual debt service) calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the trailing twelve months of 1.25 to 1 through the maturity of the credit facility.

 

At December 31, 2018, our Leverage Ratio was 2.55, and our Debt Service Coverage Ratio was 2.12. Therefore, we were in compliance with those two ratios.



Rate

 

The interest rate on the facility ranges from LIBOR plus 3.00% to LIBOR plus 4.50%, depending on our Leverage Ratio. We entered into swap agreements to fix the LIBOR component of the interest rate to achieve an effective fixed rate of ~6% on the original term loan balance and on $53 million of the revolver. At December 31, 2018, we are paying LIBOR of 2.52% plus 4.00% for a total interest rate of 6.52%.
