Guidance, Covenants, and Risks
The Company intends to use the proceeds to refinance existing indebtedness, fund operating and working capital needs, and support growth and acquisition initiatives. Draws under the Delayed Draw Term Loan are restricted to acquisitions or major capital expenditures.
Financial Covenants
- Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio: Must maintain a minimum of 1.10 to 1.00.
- Leverage Ratio: Maximum leverage ratio steps down over time:
- 3.50 to 1.00 (through Dec 30, 2015)
- 3.25 to 1.00 (Dec 31, 2015 – June 29, 2016)
- 3.00 to 1.00 (June 30, 2016 – Dec 30, 2016)
- 2.75 to 1.00 (Dec 31, 2016 and thereafter)
- Mandatory Prepayment: If the leverage ratio is 3.00 to 1.00 or higher, the Company must prepay 50% of excess cash flow.
Risks and Contingencies
Events of default include non-payment, covenant violations, bankruptcy, and judgments exceeding $750,000. Upon default, interest rates may increase by 2% per annum, and the entire facility may be accelerated. The agreement is secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all assets and equity interests of domestic subsidiaries.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the Company's current leverage ratio to ensure compliance with the 3.50 to 1.00 initial covenant threshold.
- Confirm the status of the $50 million Term Loan amortization schedule starting June 30, 2015.
- Review the specific terms of the "excess cash flow" definition for mandatory prepayment triggers.
- Assess the impact of the 2% interest rate penalty on profitability in the event of a covenant breach.
- Monitor the utilization of the Delayed Draw Term Loan for acquisitions or capital expenditures.
