PNC Credit Facility
On February 9, 2012, the Company entered into a credit and security agreement (as amended through July 27, 2018, the "PNC Credit Facility") with PNC Bank, N.A. ("PNC"), a member of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., as lender and agent. The PNC Credit Facility, which includes CIBC Bank USA (formerly known as The Private Bank) as part of the facility, provides a revolving line of credit of $90.0 million and provides for a term loan on which the Company had originally drawn to fund improvements at the Company's distribution facility in Bowling Green, Kentucky and subsequently to pay down the Company's GACP Term Loan (as defined below). The PNC Credit Facility also provides an accordion feature that would allow the Company to expand the size of the revolving line of credit by another $25.0 million at the discretion of the lenders and upon certain conditions being met. On July 27, 2018, the Company entered into the Tenth Amendment to the PNC Credit Facility, which among other things, increased the term loan by $5,821,000, extended the term of the PNC Credit Facility from March 21, 2022 to July 27, 2023, and decreased the interest rate margins on both the revolving line of credit and term loan. The term loan increase was used to reduce borrowings under the revolving line of credit.
All borrowings under the PNC Credit Facility mature and are payable on July 27, 2023. Subject to certain conditions, the PNC Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount up to $6.0 million which, upon issuance, would be deemed advances under the PNC Credit Facility. Maximum borrowings and available capacity under the revolving line of credit under the PNC Credit Facility are equal to the lesser of $90.0 million or a calculated borrowing base comprised of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory. The PNC Credit Facility is secured by a first security interest in substantially all of the Company’s personal property, as well as the Company’s real properties located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota and Bowling Green, Kentucky. Under certain circumstances, the borrowing base may be adjusted if there were to be a significant deterioration in value of the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory.
The revolving line of credit under the PNC Credit Facility bears interest at either a Base Rate or LIBOR plus a margin consisting of between 1% and 2% on Base Rate advances and 2% and 3% on LIBOR advances based on the Company's trailing twelve-month reported leverage ratio (as defined in the PNC Credit Facility) measured semi-annually as demonstrated in its financial statements. The term loan bears interest at either a Base Rate or LIBOR plus a margin consisting of between 2% and 3% on Base Rate term loans and 3% to 4% on LIBOR Rate term loans based on the Company’s leverage ratio measured annually as demonstrated in its audited financial statements.
As of August 4, 2018, the Company had borrowings of $49.9 million under its revolving credit facility. Remaining available capacity under the revolving credit facility as of August 4, 2018 was approximately $23.3 million, which provided liquidity for working capital and general corporate purposes. The PNC Credit Facility also provides for a term loan on which the Company has drawn to fund an expansion and improvements at the Company's distribution facility in Bowling Green, Kentucky and subsequently to partially pay down the Company's GACP Term Loan and reduce its revolving credit facility borrowings. As of August 4, 2018, there was approximately $19.0 million outstanding under the PNC Credit Facility term loan of which $2.7 million was classified as current in the accompanying balance sheet.
Principal borrowings under the modified term loan are to be payable in monthly installments over an 84-month amortization period commencing on September 1, 2018 and are also subject to mandatory prepayment in certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, upon receipt of certain proceeds from dispositions of collateral. Borrowings under the term loan are also subject to mandatory prepayment in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of excess cash flow for such fiscal year, with any such payment not to exceed $2.0 million in any such fiscal year. The PNC Credit Facility is also subject to other mandatory prepayment in certain circumstances. In addition, if the total PNC Credit Facility is terminated prior to maturity, the Company would be required to pay an early termination fee of 3.0% if terminated on or before July 27, 2019, 1.0% if terminated on or before July 27, 2020, 0.5% if terminated on or before July 27, 2021, and no fee if terminated after July 27, 2021. As of August 4, 2018, the imputed effective interest rate on the PNC term loan was 5.8%.
Interest expense recorded under the PNC Credit Facility was $898,000 and $1,922,000 for the three and six-month periods ended August 4, 2018 and $1,079,000 and $2,142,000 for the three and six-month periods ended July 29, 2017.
The PNC Credit Facility contains customary covenants and conditions, including, among other things, maintaining a minimum of unrestricted cash plus unused line availability of $10.0 million at all times and limiting annual capital expenditures. As the Company's unused line availability was greater than $10.0 million at August 4, 2018, no additional cash was required to be restricted. Certain financial covenants, including minimum EBITDA levels (as defined in the PNC Credit Facility) and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0, become applicable only if unrestricted cash plus unused line availability falls below $10.8 million. As of August 4, 2018, the Company's unrestricted cash plus unused line availability was $51.4 million and the Company was in compliance with applicable financial covenants of the PNC Credit Facility and expects to be in compliance with applicable financial covenants over the next twelve months. In addition, the PNC Credit Facility places restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness or prepay existing indebtedness, to create liens or other encumbrances, to sell or otherwise dispose of assets, to merge or consolidate with other entities, and to make certain restricted payments, including payments of dividends to common shareholders.
Deferred financing costs, net of amortization, relating to the revolving line of credit was $650,000 and $656,000 as of August 4, 2018 and February 3, 2018 and are included within other assets within the accompanying balance sheet. These costs are being expensed as additional interest over the five-year term of the PNC Credit Facility.
Prepayment on Great American Capital Partners Term Loan
During fiscal 2017, the Company retired its term loan (the "GACP Term Loan") under a credit and security agreement with GACP Finance Co., LLC ("GACP"), with voluntary principal prepayments of $9.5 million, $2.5 million and $3.5 million on March 21, 2017, October 18, 2017 and December 6, 2017. During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $913,000 for the portion of debt extinguished on March 21, 2017. The fiscal 2017 first quarter loss on extinguishment of debt includes early termination and lender fees of $199,000 and a write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $714,000, which represents the proportionate amount of unamortized debt issuance costs attributable to the settled debt. Interest expense recorded under the GACP Credit Agreement for the three and six-month periods ended July 29, 2017 was $231,000 and $661,000.
