Note 7. Debt

Revolving Credit Facility

On June 17, 2011, the Company entered into an unsecured credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”). Since June 17, 2011 and through August 31, 2016, this unsecured credit agreement has been amended three times, most recently on November 16, 2015 (the “Third Amendment”). This Third Amendment increased the revolving commitment from an amount not to exceed $150.0 million to an amount not to exceed $175.0 million. The Third Amendment also increased the aggregate amount of the Company’s capital stock that it may repurchase from $125.0 million to $150.0 million during the period from and including the Third Amendment effective date to the maturity date of the agreement so long as no default exists immediately prior and after giving effect thereto. This revolving credit facility matures on May 13, 2020, and includes representations, warranties and covenants customary for credit facilities of this type, as well as customary events of default and remedies.

Per the terms of the amended agreement, the Company and Bank of America may enter into an autoborrow agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Bank of America, providing for the automatic advance of revolving loans in U.S. Dollars to the Company’s designated account at Bank of America. On February 10, 2016, the Company entered into an autoborrow agreement with Bank of America and this agreement has been in effect since that date. For the financial covenants, the definition of consolidated EBITDA includes the add back of non-cash stock-based compensation to consolidated net income when arriving at consolidated EBITDA. The terms of the financial covenants are as follows:

The consolidated leverage ratio cannot be greater than three to one. The consolidated leverage ratio means, as of any date of determination, the ratio of (a) consolidated funded indebtedness as of such date to (b) consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters.

The consolidated interest coverage ratio cannot be less than three to one. The consolidated interest coverage ratio means, as of any date of determination, the ratio of (a) consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters to (b) consolidated interest charges for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters.

While each of the borrowings under the line of credit have a maturity date within twelve months, the Company has classified the borrowings as long-term liabilities as it has the ability and intent to refinance the draws on the line of credit for a period in excess of one year through successive conversions of the borrowings to new borrowings under the line of credit. Since the autoborrow feature provides for borrowings to be made and repaid by the Company on a daily basis, any such borrowings made under an active autoborrow agreement are classified as short-term on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016, the Company borrowed an additional $14.0 million U.S. dollars under the revolving credit facility. As of August 31, 2016, the Company had no balance under the autoborrow agreement. The Company regularly converts existing draws on its line of credit to new draws with new maturity dates and interest rates. As of August 31, 2016, the Company had a $122.0 million outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility and was in compliance with all debt covenants under this credit facility.

On September 1, 2016, the Company entered into a fourth amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the existing unsecured credit agreement with Bank of America. See Note 16 – Subsequent Events for additional information on a fourth amendment to the revolving credit facility.
