Material changes, covenants, and risks
- The new committed facility replaces the prior revolving facility, which was scheduled to expire July 30, 2027. The new facility has a later maturity and a stated $220 million commitment.
- Quarterly financial covenants require a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.00:1.00 and a consolidated leverage ratio no greater than 3.00:1.00, tested at each fiscal quarter-end.
- The agreement includes customary restrictions on indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, restricted payments, and affiliate transactions, as well as customary events of default.
- PSI’s obligations are guaranteed by its subsidiaries and secured by substantially all personal property of PSI and the guarantors, including subsidiary equity interests and intellectual property. Intercompany debt is subordinated to the facility obligations.
- A change-of-control event generally includes Weichai Power beneficially owning 50% or less of PSI’s voting equity on a fully diluted basis. The stated exception applies while Weichai America has the right to appoint a board majority and Weichai maintains at least 40% of PSI’s equity. Weichai America currently owns approximately 46% of PSI’s outstanding common stock and has board-designation rights subject to the terms described in the filing.
- The filing provides no earnings guidance or operating outlook. It does not report a financial covenant breach or identify a specific contingency beyond the facility terms and associated risks.
