Note 6. Borrowings Under Revolving Credit Facility 

 

On June 24, 2016, the Company and its primary operating subsidiaries entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with SunTrust Bank, as Administrative Agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior asset based secured revolving credit facility of up to $35 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), and replaces the Company’s previously existing $35 million unsecured revolving credit facility with both SunTrust Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, which had no outstanding principal balance at the time of replacement. The new Revolving Credit Facility matures in five years, on June 24, 2021, and includes a $5.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swing line loans. The Credit Agreement also includes a provision permitting the Company, subject to certain conditions and approval of the Lenders, to increase the aggregate amount of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility to up to $50 million, through optional increased commitments from existing Lenders or new commitments from additional lenders, although no Lender is obligated to increase its commitment. Borrowing availability is determined in part in accordance with a borrowing base, which is generally 85% of eligible receivables minus reserves. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio that must be maintained at any time during which the borrowing availability is otherwise less than $10 million. The Credit Agreement also may limit our ability to engage in specified transactions or activities, including (but not limited to) investments and acquisitions, sales of assets, payment of dividends, issuance of additional debt and other matters. 

Borrowings initially accrue interest from the applicable borrowing date, generally the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.5% to 1.75%.  Under certain circumstances, the applicable interest rate is subject to change from the Eurodollar rate plus the applicable margin to the base rate plus the applicable margin. Interest expense on this revolving credit facility for fiscal year 2017 totaled $45,500. Average borrowings under this revolving credit facility totaled $2,118,500, and maximum borrowings totaled $13,473,200 for fiscal year 2017, respectively. In addition to the interest charged on borrowings, the Company is subject to a 0.25% fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility.

 

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, and as further provided in, and subject to the applicable terms of, the Credit Agreement. As of March 26, 2017, we had a zero balance on the Revolving Credit Facility; therefore, we had $35 million available, subject to the borrowing base limitation and compliance with the other applicable terms of the Credit Agreement including the covenants referenced above. 

 

Pursuant to a related Guaranty and Security Agreement, by and among the Company, the other borrowers under the Credit Agreement and other subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Loan Parties”), and SunTrust Bank, as Administrative Agent, the Loan Parties’ obligations, which include the obligations under the Credit Agreement, are guaranteed by the Loan Parties not otherwise borrowers, and secured by continuing first priority security interests in the Company’s and the other Loan Parties’ (including both borrowers and guarantors) inventory, accounts receivable, and deposit accounts, and on all documents, instruments, general intangibles, letter of credit rights, and chattel paper, in each case to the extent relating to inventory and accounts, and to all proceeds of the foregoing. The security interests are granted in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders party to the Credit Agreement from time to time.  The obligations secured also include certain other obligations of the Loan Parties to the Lenders and their affiliates arising from time to time, relating to swaps, hedges and cash management and other bank products.

 

The Company was in compliance with the terms and financial covenants applicable to the revolving credit facility at the end of fiscal year 2017.

 

On May 31, 2007, pursuant to a Credit Agreement, the Company established a revolving credit facility with both Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and SunTrust Bank. The facility has since been replaced with the credit facility mentioned above. The facility was unsecured and provided for monthly payments of interest accruing at a rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The terms of the revolving credit facility required the Company to meet certain financial covenants and ratios and contained other limitations, including certain restrictions on dividend payments.

 

The facility provided for monthly payments of interest accruing at a rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facilities was 1.69% and 1.65% for fiscal years 2016 and 2015, respectively. Interest expense on this revolving credit facility for fiscal years 2016 and 2015 totaled $59,000 and $78,200, respectively. Average borrowings under this revolving credit facility totaled $3,454,500 and $4,672,300 and maximum borrowings totaled $12,301,100 and $17,331,900 for fiscal years 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

As of March 27, 2016, the Company had no outstanding balance on its revolving credit facility. Therefore, the Company had $35.0 million available on its revolving line of credit facility as of March 27, 2016, subject to the applicable borrowing base limitations and compliance with the other applicable terms.

 

The Company was in compliance with the terms and financial covenants applicable to this prior revolving credit facility at the end of fiscal years 2016 and 2015.
