Debt

7. Debt

The Company is party to a $268,620,000 senior secured financing, (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Facility”), consisting of a $238,620,000 revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Facility”), subject to certain restrictions, and a $30,000,000 term loan facility (the “Term Loans”). The loans under the Credit Facility mature on May 28, 2026 and the lenders have a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company. The interest rate on the Company’s Term Loans and Revolving Facility was 8.52% and 8.46% respectively, at June 30, 2023, and 8.02% and 8.13% respectively, at March 31, 2023.

On August 3, 2023, the Company entered into a seventh amendment to the Credit Facility, which among other things, (i) permits the Company to repay its outstanding balance of Term Loans, (ii) permits the exclusion of quarterly principal payments of Term Loans from the fixed charge coverage ratio (including retrospectively for the prior periods) for all quarters beginning June 30, 2023, (iii) resets the fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant level for the quarters ending September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, (iv) eliminates the senior leverage ratio financial covenant effective with the quarter ended June 30, 2023, (v) extends the minimum undrawn availability financial covenant through the delivery of the June 30, 2024 compliance certificate, and (vi) excludes the amount of all amendment fees and expenses incurred in connection with this amendment as well as prior unamortized fees associated with the Term Loans from bank EBITDA and the fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant. The modifications to the financial covenants were effective as of June 30, 2023.

The Credit Facility, among other things, requires the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, including a maximum senior leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Company was in compliance with all amended financial covenants as of June 30, 2023.

The following summarizes information about the Term Loans:

On August 3, 2023, the Company repaid the outstanding balance of its Term Loans and wrote-off the remaining unamortized financing fees recorded in connection with the Term Loans.

The Company had $167,000,000 and $145,200,000 outstanding under the Revolving Facility at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. In addition, $6,370,000 was outstanding for letters of credit at June 30, 2023. At June 30, 2023, after certain contractual adjustments, $65,250,000 was available under the Revolving Facility.

Convertible Notes

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement, (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with Bison Capital Partners VI, L.P. and Bison Capital Partners VI-A, L.P. (collectively, the “Purchasers”) and Bison Capital Partners VI, L.P., as the purchaser representative (the “Purchaser Representative”) for the issuance and sale of $32,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes due in 2029 (the “Convertible Notes”), which was used for general corporate purposes. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 10.0% per annum, compounded annually, and payable (i) in kind or (ii) in cash, annually in arrears on April 1 of each year, commencing on April 1, 2024. The Convertible Notes have an initial conversion price of approximately $15.00 per share of common stock (“Conversion Option”). Unless and until the Company delivers a redemption notice, the Purchasers of the Convertible Notes may convert their Convertible Notes at any time at their option. Upon conversion, the Convertible Notes will be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock. Except in the case of the occurrence of a fundamental transaction, as defined in the form of convertible promissory note, the Company may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to March 31, 2026. After March 31, 2026, the Company may redeem all or part of the Convertible Notes for a cash purchase (the “Company Redemption”) price.

On June 8, 2023, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement, which among other things, removed a provision that specified the Purchasers would be entitled to receive a dividend or distribution payable in certain circumstances. This amendment was effective as of March 31, 2023.

On August 1, 2023, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement, which amended the definition of “Permitted Restricted Payments” to permit the prepayment of the Company’s Term Loans.

The Company’s Convertible Notes are comprised of the following:

	June 30, 2023			March 31, 2023
Principal amount of Convertible Notes	$	32,000,000		$	32,000,000
Less: unamortized debt discount attributed to Compound Net Derivative Liability		(8,229,000	)		(8,430,000	)
Less: unamortized debt discount attributed to debt issuance costs		(1,089,000	)		(1,006,000	)
Carrying amount of the Convertible Notes		22,682,000			22,564,000
Plus: Compound Net Derivative Liability		8,570,000			8,430,000
Net carrying amount of Convertible Notes, related party	$	31,252,000		$	30,994,000

In connection with the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into common stock warrants (the “Warrants”) with the Purchasers, which mature on March 30, 2029. The fair value of the Warrants, using Level 3 inputs and the Monte Carlo simulation model, was zero at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023.

The Company Redemption option has been combined with the Conversion Option as a compound net derivative liability (the “Compound Net Derivative Liability”). The Compound Net Derivative Liability has been recorded within convertible note, related party in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023. The fair value of the Conversion Option and the Company Redemption option using Level 3 inputs and the Monte Carlo simulation model was a liability of $10,800,000 and $10,400,000, and an asset of $2,230,000 and $1,970,000 at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $140,000 as the change in fair value of the Compound Net Derivative Liability in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

The Convertible Notes also contain additional features, such as, default interest and options related to a fundamental transaction, which were not separately accounted for as the value of such features were not material at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023.

Interest expense related to the Convertible Notes is as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	June 30,
	2023
Contractual interest expense	$	800,000
Accretion of debt discount		201,000
Amortization of issuance costs		27,000
Total interest expense	$	1,028,000

There are no future payments required under the Convertible Notes prior to their maturity, therefore, the principal amount of the Convertible Notes plus interest payable in kind, assuming no early redemption or conversion has occurred, of $56,704,000 would be paid on March 30, 2029.
