Key Financial Metrics
This filing does not report revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, or liquidity positions. The document focuses exclusively on amendments to debt covenants and definitions within the existing credit facility.
Material Changes
The Second Amendment introduces two primary changes to the Credit Agreement originally entered into on March 23, 2015:
- Definition of Fixed Charges: The definition was amended to remove "prepayments" from the calculation of Fixed Charges. This change allows the Company to prepay indebtedness without negatively impacting its financial covenants.
- Leverage Ratio Covenant: The scheduled reductions in the maximum allowed Leverage Ratio have been delayed by one full year for each reduction. The new schedule is as follows:
| Effective Date | Maximum Leverage Ratio |
|---|---|
| Effective Date through Dec 31, 2015 | 3.0 to 1.0 |
| Dec 31, 2015 through Mar 31, 2018 | 2.75 to 1.0 |
| Mar 31, 2018 through Mar 31, 2019 | 2.50 to 1.0 |
| On or after Mar 31, 2019 | 2.25 to 1.0 |
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
