16.    Lines of Credit

As of September 30, 2018, the Company maintained a line of credit that allows for borrowings of up to $1.0 million. Availability under the facility was reduced by outstanding borrowings thereunder. The interest rates on outstanding borrowings was London Inter-Bank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") plus 2.5%, with a floor of 4%. Borrowings under the credit agreements are required to be repaid on demand in certain circumstances, upon termination of the agreements, or may be prepaid by the Company without penalty. The Company had no amounts outstanding under the line of credit during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. This line of credit closed during fiscal year 2019.

As of September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company also maintained an inventory line of credit that may be used by the TS segment in the U.S. to purchase inventory from approved vendors with payment terms which exceed those offered by the vendors. In fiscal year 2019, HPP gained access to this inventory line of credit, but did not use it in fiscal year 2019. No interest accrues under the inventory line of credit when advances are paid within terms, however, late payments are subject to an interest charge of Prime plus 5%. The credit agreement for the inventory line of credit contains financial covenants which require the Company to maintain the following TS segment-specific financial ratios: (1) a minimum current ratio of 1.2,  (2) tangible net worth of no less than $4.0 million, and (3) a maximum ratio of total liabilities to total net worth of less than 5.0:1.  As of September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, Company borrowings under the inventory line of credit were $2.5 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
