Note 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 19, 2014, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Ft. Wayne Holdings, Inc. (“FTW”), the parent company of Ft. Wayne Plastics, Inc. (“FWP”), a leading manufacturer of medium- to large- sized molded plastic components, specializing in low pressure, multi-nozzle structural plastic and gas assist solutions, for $11.5 million in cash, subject to certain pre-closing and post-closing purchase price adjustments. The acquisition of FWP’s premier manufacturing capabilities and dedication to customer service are highly complementary with the Company.

The recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their fair values as of February 19, 2014 are set forth below:

Current assets

The amounts shown above may change in the near term as management continues to assess the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities and evaluate the income tax implications of this business combination.

During 2013, the Company incurred $0.2 million in costs related to the acquisition of FWP. These costs included fees for legal, accounting, valuation and other professional fees. These costs have been included within general and administrative expenses.

The cash used for this acquisition was funded primarily through a new credit agreement (the “BMO Credit Agreement”) entered into on February 19, 2014 between the Company and BMO Harris Bank N.A. The BMO Credit Agreement provides the Company a $27.0 million revolving credit facility, including a $3.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The proceeds of the Company’s initial borrowing under the BMO Credit Agreement were used to repay the PB Credit Facility (as defined in Note 4), finance the acquisition of FTW (as defined above), and pay certain fees and expenses related to the negotiation and consummation of the credit facility and the acquisition. All extensions of credit under the BMO Credit Agreement are collateralized by a first priority security interest in and lien upon substantially all present and future assets and properties of the Company.

The BMO Credit Agreement has an expiration date of February 17, 2017 and its borrowing base is determined by eligible inventory, accounts receivable, machinery and equipment and owned real estate. The  borrowing base under the BMO Credit Agreement is reduced by the outstanding amount of standby and commercial letters of credit.

Borrowings under the BMO Credit Agreement bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Borrower’s option, (a) the Base Rate plus applicable Base Rate Margin, which varies from 0.50% to 1.00% based on average excess availability, or (b) reserve adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the applicable Eurodollar Rate Margin, which varies from 1.50% to 2.00% based on average excess availability. The Base Rate is the greatest of (i) BMO Harris’ prime commercial rate as in effect on such day, (ii) the sum of the Fed Funds rate for such day plus 0.5%, and (iii) the Eurodollar Rate for one month plus 1.50%. The Eurodollar Rate is the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate, as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source) with a term equivalent to the applicable one, two, three or six month interest period. An unused commitment fee of 25 basis points per annum is payable quarterly on the average unused amount of the BMO Credit Agreement. The BMO Credit Agreement includes financial covenants regarding fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum annual capital expenditures, minimum consolidated EBITDA at March 28, 2014 and minimum availability through June 2014.

The BMO Credit Agreement requires a lockbox agreement which provides receipts (subject to certain exceptions) to be swept daily to reduce borrowings outstanding. This provision in the BMO Credit Agreement causes the BMO Credit Agreement to be classified as a current liability, per guidance in the Accounting Standards Codification established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The Company does not expect to repay, or be required to repay, within one year, the balance of the BMO Credit Agreement, which will be classified as a current liability. The BMO Credit Agreement does not expire or have a maturity date within one year, but rather has a final expiration date of February 17, 2017.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules, regulations and related forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
