The virus was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. In response to the rapid spread of the virus, national and local governments have instituted varying levels of actions to contain the virus’s spread. The Company has instituted a work from home policy for employees that can continue to perform their jobs remotely. In addition, steps have been taken at the Company's plants and administrative offices to test temperatures of personnel entering the facilities as well as the implementation enhanced cleaning protocols. As of the date of this filing, all of the Company’s plants are operating with the exception of the plant located in India. On March 24, 2020 the India plant operations were suspended in compliance with a national 21 -day shutdown which has now been extended through April 21, 2020. We do not expect a shut down over this period to significantly impact our planned production schedules. To date the Company's global supply chains have not been materially affected by the global pandemic. Due to the unprecedented actions taken to stem the spread of the virus and the uncertainty of the duration and impact of additional actions that may be required, the resulting future disruptions to the Company’s operations is uncertain. On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (H.R. 748 ) (the “CARES Act”). Among the changes to the U.S. federal income tax rules, the CARES Act restored net operating loss carryback rules that were eliminated by Tax Act, modified the limit on the deduction for net interest expense and accelerated the timeframe for refunds of AMT credits. While the Company's analysis of the CARES Act impact on the Company's cash tax liability and financial condition has not identified any overall material effect, the Company is still evaluating the effects of the CARES Act on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In February 2020 the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Russian Federation failed to reach an agreement on oil production limitations. The news of a failed agreement resulted in a steep decline in global oil prices. On April 12, 2020 the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Russian Federation agreed on oil production cuts which will begin on May 1, 2020. Additionally, the reduction in worldwide consumption as a result of the coronavirus pandemic has added further downward pressure to oil prices. In response to the decrease in oil prices, international oil companies have announced capital spending budget cuts that are reported to be approximately 30%. At this time the impact of the anticipated reduction in capital spending on the Company’s results of operations is uncertain. In response to the extraordinary steps taken to combat the spread of COVID- 19 and the impact of decreased demand for oil and the associated collapse of oil prices, the Company undertook a reforecast to determine the potential financial impact of these events on the Company’s results of operations. The results of the reforecast indicated a risk that the Company could be out of compliance with a debt covenant related to the Senior Credit Facility in the second quarter of 2020. To address the possible covenant compliance issue the Company has made plans to reduce planned capital expenditures and non-essential operating expenses, and if necessary, to repatriate foreign cash to bring the covenant into compliance. In addition, the Company has applied for funding under two Small Business Administration programs. The Paycheck Protection Program provides forgivable funding for payroll and related costs as well as some non-payroll costs. The Company has applied for funding in the amount of $3.2 million. The Company has also applied for a Small Business Administration Economic Disaster Loan which could be up to $2 million based on need and repayment capacity. There is no guarantee that the Company will be granted funds under either program.
