Explanatory Note

 

ProPhase Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) solely to include the disclosure of $16.1 million in working capital as of June 30, 2024 to the risk factor disclosed under Item 8.01 of its Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 21, 2024 (the “Original Report”). Item 8.01 of the Original Report is amended and restated in its entirety as set out below. No other items or disclosures in the Original Report are being amended; however, this Amendment hereby restates and supersedes in its entirety the disclosures included in the Original Report.

 

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 15, 2024, the Company issued an Amended and Restated Unsecured Promissory Note and Guaranty (the “Note”) for an aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million to JXVII Trust (“JXVII”), that supersedes, terminates, restates, replaces, and amends the Unsecured Promissory Note And Guaranty, dated as of January 26, 2023, for an aggregate principal amount of $7.6 million issued to JXVII that was previously disclosed pursuant to a Form 8-K filed by the Company on January 30, 2023. The Note is due and payable on August 15, 2027, the third anniversary of August 15, 2024, the date on which the Note was funded (the “Closing Date”), and accrues interest at a rate of 15% per year from the Closing Date, payable on a quarterly basis, until the Note is repaid in full. The Company has the right to prepay the Note at any time after the Closing Date and prior to the maturity date without premium or penalty upon providing seven days’ written notice to JXVII.

 

The Note contains customary events of default. If a default occurs and is not cured within the applicable cure period or is not waived, any outstanding obligations under the Note may be accelerated. The Note requires the Company to use proceeds from any divestment of assets (other than in the ordinary course) for general working capital purposes and prohibits the Company from distributing or reinvesting such proceeds without the prior approval of JXVII, subject to certain exceptions.

 

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Note for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, product development and commercialization expenditures, and acquisitions of companies, businesses, technologies and products within and outside the consumer products industry.

 

The foregoing description of the Note does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Note, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The disclosure provided in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

The Company is supplementing the Company’s risk factors in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2024, and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 10, 2024 and August 14, 2024, respectively, with the risk factor set forth below.

 

 

 

 

Servicing our debt will require a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our debt.

 

Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. We had, as of June 30, 2024, approximately (i) $16.1 million in working capital, (ii) $2.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, and (iii) $13.6 million of outstanding indebtedness, net of discounts. In addition, on August 15, 2024, we amended and restated the unsecured promissory note and guaranty previously issued to JXVII Trust that increased the principal amount from $7.6 million to $10.0 million. Our business may not generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt obligations and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.
