Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide current revenue, profit, cash flow, margin, or liquidity metrics. The only specific financial figure disclosed relates to a capital raise requirement:
- Required Cash Equity: $1,205,000
Material Changes and Events
The Company is currently in default under two credit facilities with United Bank, Inc. A forbearance agreement was originally entered into on November 28, 2012, and subsequently amended. The material change reported in this filing is an amendment to the forbearance agreement dated October 1, 2013. This amendment extends the deadline for the Company to raise the required $1,205,000 in cash equity from September 30, 2013, to October 31, 2013. All other provisions of the agreement remain substantially the same.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Risks and Contingencies: The Company remains in default on its credit facilities. The extension of the equity raise deadline indicates ongoing liquidity pressure and the necessity of securing capital to maintain the forbearance terms. Failure to raise the required $1,205,000 by the new October 31, 2013 deadline could result in the lender exercising rights and remedies under the loan agreements.
Management Commentary: The filing contains no forward-looking guidance or management commentary beyond the description of the agreement amendment.
