9. LONG-TERM DEBT

 

On April 26, 2024, we refinanced our previous term debt and asset-based lending credit facilities by amending and restating our credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as agent, sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner and other lenders party thereto (the "ABL Agreement"). The ABL Agreement consists of a $175.0 million asset-based lending credit facility (the "ABL Facility") and a $50.0 million term loan facility (the "Term Facility"). The ABL Agreement is collateralized by a first-lien on substantially all of the Company's domestic assets. The ABL Facility includes a separate first in, last out (FILO) tranche, which allows the Company to borrow at higher advance rates on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances. As of  June 30, 2026, we had borrowing capacity of $46.3 million under the ABL Facility. The Term Facility provides for monthly principal payments until the date of maturity, at which date the remaining principal balance is due.

 

 

Loans under the ABL Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to either (i) the Base Rate (as calculated in the ABL Agreement) or (ii) Term SOFR (as calculated in the ABL Agreement), plus in each case an interest margin determined by the Company's average daily availability as a percentage of the aggregate amount of revolving commitments for revolving loans and term loans, with a range of Base Rate margins and term SOFR margins, as set forth of the following chart:

Credit Facility Covenants

 

Our ABL Facility and Term Facility require us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the ABL Agreement. The ABL Facility and Term Facility also contain restrictions on the amount of dividend payments and share repurchases. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all credit facility covenants.
