NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On February 1, 2023, the Company entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Fifth Amended Credit Facility”). The Fifth Amended Credit Facility increases the aggregate principal amount of the revolving line of credit from $70.0 million to $100.0 million, with an option to increase it by another $100.0 million within the first six months. The maturity date of the Fifth Amended Credit Facility is extended to January 1, 2025.

The interest rate under the Fifth Amended Credit Facility is SOFR (the Secured Overnight Financing Rate) plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.50%, or a base rate (as defined in the Fifth Amended Credit Facility) plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50%. The applicable margins will vary depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. In addition, SOFR-based loans will incur a 0.10% credit adjustment spread due to the conversion from LIBOR to SOFR as the new benchmark rate.

The Fifth Amended Credit Facility includes customary covenants and events of default and encumbers substantially all of the Company’s real and personal property.

Dividends

On February 7, 2023, the Company announced that the Company’s Board of Directors has declared a one-time cash dividend (the “One-time Dividend”) of $5.00 per share of its outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), to be paid to the stockholders of record of the Company on March 1, 2023 (the “Record Date”), payable on March 15, 2023 (the “Payment Date”).

In addition to the One-time Dividend, the Board of Directors has approved, commencing in the second quarter of 2023, payment of cash dividends of $1.20 per share annually, with such dividends to be paid in quarterly amounts. These dividends will be paid quarterly on the 15th day of the third month of the applicable calendar quarter (or, if such date is not a trading day, then the first trading day immediately thereafter such date) to those stockholders of record on the 1st day of the third month of the applicable calendar quarter (or, if such date is not a trading day, then the first trading day immediately thereafter such date).

The Company’s declaration of each dividend amount shall be subject to the Board’s review of the then-current financial statements of the Company, available acquisition opportunities and other prudent uses of the Company’s cash resources. As such, the Board of Directors may suspend the dividend program at any time and no assurances can be given that a quarterly dividend will be paid.
