7. DEBT

The Company primarily finances its operations through two credit facility agreements (the “AMCON Facility” and the “Team Sledd Facility”, and together “the Facilities”) and long-term debt agreements with banks. In Q3 2022, the Company amended the AMCON Facility, increasing its aggregate borrowing capacity from $110.0 million to $150.0 million, extending the maturity date from March 2025 to June 2027, and adding certain real estate properties as eligible borrowing collateral under the credit agreement.

At June 2022, the Facilities have a total combined borrowing capacity of $250.0 million, which includes provisions for up to $30.0 million in credit advances for certain inventory purchases, which are limited by accounts receivable and inventory qualifications, and the value of certain real estate collateral. The Team Sledd Facility matures in March 2027 and the AMCON Facility matures in June 2027, each without a penalty for prepayment. Obligations under the Facilities are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s respective equipment, intangibles, inventories, accounts receivable, and in the case of the AMCON Facility, certain of the Company’s real estate. The Facilities each feature an unused commitment fee and financial covenants including fixed charge coverage ratios. Borrowings under the Facilities bear interest at either the bank’s prime rate, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus any applicable spreads.

The amount available for use from the Facilities at any given time is subject to a number of factors, including eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances that fluctuate day-to-day, as well as the value of certain real estate collateral. Based on the collateral and loan limits as defined in the Facility agreements, the credit limit of the combined Facilities at June 2022 was $194.4 million, of which $101.2 million was outstanding, leaving $93.2 million available.

The average interest rate of the Facilities was 3.23% at June 2022. For the nine months ended June 2022, the peak borrowings under the Facilities was $123.5 million, and the average borrowings and average availability under the Facilities was $51.2 million and $60.7 million, respectively.

Cross Default and Co-Terminus Provisions

The Company owns real estate in Bismarck, ND, Quincy, IL, and Rapid City, SD, which is financed through a single term loan (the “Real Estate Loan”) with BMO Harris Bank N.A. (“BMO”) which is also a participant lender on the AMCON Facility. The Real Estate Loan contains cross default provisions which would cause the loan to be considered in default if the loans where BMO is a lender, including the AMCON Facility, were in default. There were no such cross defaults at June 2022. In addition, the Real Estate Loan contains co-terminus provisions which require all loans with BMO to be paid in full if any of the loans are paid in full prior to the end of their specified terms. As discussed in Note 12, the Real Estate

Loan was subsequently terminated and repaid in connection with the Company entering into the amendment to the AMCON Facility during Q3 2022.

Team Sledd’s three notes payable and the Team Sledd Facility contain cross default provisions. There were no such cross defaults at June 2022.

The Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the Facilities at June 2022.

Other

The Company has issued a letter of credit for $0.6 million to its workers’ compensation insurance carrier as part of its self-insured loss control program.
