Key Financial Metrics and Agreements
This filing does not contain standard financial performance metrics such as revenue, profit, cash flow, or margins. The report focuses on specific contractual amendments and equity transactions:
- Debt Facility Amendment: The Company entered into a Loan Modification Agreement with BBVA USA (agent) and Bank of America, N.A. to correct a clerical error in the Credit Agreement regarding fee calculations.
- Fee Structure Correction:
- Annual maintenance fee for letters of credit: The greater of $600 or the applicable fee rate of the aggregate average daily undrawn amount.
- Issuance fee for letters of credit: 0.20% of the face amount.
- Equity Transaction: On October 21, 2019, affiliates of SunTx Capital Management Corp. sold 750,000 shares of Class A common stock via the exercise of an Over-Allotment Option at $13.4662 per share. The Company received no proceeds from this transaction.
Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The primary material change is the formal correction of the fee calculation formulas for letters of credit within the Credit Agreement, which had previously transposed the formulas for annual maintenance fees and issuance fees. Additionally, the filing notes the completion of the Over-Allotment Option exercise, finalizing the secondary offering that closed on September 20, 2019.
