NOTE 6.  LONG-TERM DEBT

 

On November 15, 2011, we amended and restated our $60.0 million credit facility with a new facility (the “New Credit Facility”).  We utilized the New Credit Facility to finance the acquisition of Black Hawk and the New Credit Facility is available to be used for working capital needs, general corporate purposes and for ongoing capital expenditure requirements.  The maximum available borrowings under the New Credit Facility are $100.0 million.

 

In addition to other customary covenants for a facility of this nature, as of June 30, 2013, the Company was required to maintain a leverage ratio, defined as consolidated debt divided by EBITDA, of no more than 3.0:1 and a fixed charge coverage ratio (EBITDA divided by fixed charges, as defined) of at least 1.15:1.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratios were 1.4:1 and 13.3:1, respectively.

 

The maximum principal available under the New Credit Facility is reduced by $1.5 million per quarter beginning July 1, 2013. The Company may permanently reduce the maximum principal available at any time so long as the amount of such reduction is at least $0.5 million and a multiple of $50,000.  Maturities of the Company’s borrowings for each of the next three years and thereafter as of June 30, 2013 are as follows:

At June 30, 2013, the Company’s leverage ratio was such that pricing for borrowings under the New Facility was LIBOR plus 2.0%.  At June 30, 2013 the one-month LIBOR interest rate was 0.19%.   The carrying value of the debt outstanding under the New Facility approximates fair value because the interest fluctuates with the lender’s prime rate or other market rates of interest.
