Business Context and Reporting Period
This Form 8-K was filed by Sysorex Global (referred to in the request metadata as XTI Aerospace, Inc.) on December 9, 2016. The report details a material definitive agreement entered into on the same date between the Company, its U.S. subsidiaries (Sysorex USA and Sysorex Government Services, Inc.), and GemCap Lending I, LLC.
Key Financial Metrics and Debt
The filing focuses on the amendment of a Loan and Security Agreement rather than reporting standard financial performance metrics such as revenue, profit, or cash flow. Key debt-related terms include:
- Accommodation Fee: The Company agreed to pay an accommodation fee of $50,000 to the Lender.
- Costs: The Company agreed to pay all of the Lender's fees and costs, including attorneys' fees, related to the Amendment.
- Borrowing Base Adjustments: The amendment modifies the calculation of the Borrowing Base, specifically regarding "Eligible Unbilled Accounts."
Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The primary material change is the execution of Amendment Number 1 to the Loan Agreement originally dated November 14, 2016. Significant changes include:
- Waiver of Default: The Lender waived a default arising from the Borrower's failure to deposit collections into the designated account between November 21, 2016, and December 6, 2016.
- Reporting Deadlines: The deadline for delivering Monthly Financial Statements was extended from 20 days to 30 days after the end of each calendar month.
- Reporting Requirements: "Inventory schedules" were added to the definition of "Other Weekly Reports."
- Unbilled Accounts Availability: The amendment introduces a phased reduction in the advance rate for Eligible Unbilled Accounts:
- 85% from December 9, 2016, to January 9, 2017.
- 70% from January 10, 2017, to February 8, 2017.
- 50% from February 9, 2017, to March 9, 2017.
- 0% from March 10, 2017, onwards.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The filing does not provide forward-looking guidance, revenue outlook, or management commentary on future business performance. However, it highlights specific risks and contingencies:
- Liquidity Risk: The Company will no longer be able to obtain advances against Eligible Unbilled Accounts after March 10, 2017, which may impact liquidity if the Company relies on unbilled work for funding.
- Default Risk: The Company recently experienced a default regarding deposit requirements, necessitating a waiver from the Lender.
- Contractual Constraints: The aggregate amount of Eligible Unbilled Accounts is capped at 20% of the aggregate amount of Eligible Accounts at all times.
Important Facts for Investor Verification
