(1) Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the revolving warehouse credit facilities are presented within other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. RMR II had $0.9 million in such costs as of December 31, 2022. RMR IV had $0.4 million of such costs as of March 31, 2023. RMR V had $0.4 million of such costs for both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. RMR VI had $0.9 million of such costs as of March 31, 2023.

Senior Revolving Credit Facility: In November 2022, the Company amended and restated its senior revolving credit facility to, among other things, decrease the availability under the facility from $500 million to $420 million. The senior revolving credit facility matures in September 2024. Excluding the receivables held by the Company’s VIEs, the senior revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s finance receivables and equity interests of the majority of its subsidiaries. Advances on the senior revolving credit facility are capped at 83% of eligible finance receivables (81% of eligible finance receivables as of March 31, 2023).

In September 2022, the Company amended and restated its senior revolving credit facility to replace LIBOR as the benchmark rate for the calculation of interest with a forward-looking term rate based on the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") or, in certain limited circumstances, another alternative benchmark rate. The one-month LIBOR was replaced on October 1, 2022 by one-month SOFR with a floor of not less than 0.50%, plus a 3.00% margin and a benchmark adjustment. The effective interest rate was 7.77% at March 31, 2023. The Company pays an unused commitment fee between 0.50% and 1.00% based upon the average outstanding balance. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $131.9 million of immediate available liquidity to draw down cash under the facility and held $7.1 million in unrestricted cash.

Variable Interest Entity Debt: As part of its overall funding strategy, the Company has transferred certain finance receivables to affiliated VIEs for asset-backed financing transactions, including securitizations. The following debt arrangements are issued by the Company’s wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote SPEs, which are considered VIEs under GAAP and are consolidated into the financial statements of their primary beneficiary.

These debts are supported by the expected cash flows from the underlying collateralized finance receivables. Collections on these finance receivables are remitted to restricted cash collection accounts, which totaled $112.6 million and $112.2 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Cash inflows from the finance receivables are distributed to the lenders/investors, the service providers, and/or the residual interest that the Company owns in accordance with a monthly contractual priority of payments. The SPEs pay a servicing fee to the Company, which is eliminated in consolidation. Distributions from the SPEs to the Company are permitted under the debt arrangements.

At each sale of receivables from the Company’s affiliates to the SPEs, the Company makes certain representations and warranties about the quality and nature of the collateralized receivables. The debt arrangements require the Company to repurchase the receivables in certain circumstances, including circumstances in which the representations and warranties made by the Company concerning the quality and characteristics of the receivables are inaccurate. Assets transferred to each SPE are legally isolated from the Company and its affiliates, as well as the claims of the Company’s and its affiliates’ creditors. Further, the assets of each SPE are owned by such SPE and are not available to satisfy the debts or other obligations of the Company or any of its affiliates.

RMR II Revolving Warehouse Credit Facility: In April 2021, the Company and its wholly-owned SPE, Regional Management Receivables II, LLC (“RMR II”), amended and restated the credit agreement that provides for a revolving warehouse credit facility to RMR II to, among other things, extend the date at which the facility converts to an amortizing loan and the termination date to March 2023 and March 2024, respectively, decrease the total facility from $125 million to $75 million, increase the cap on facility advances from 80% to 83% of eligible finance receivables, and increase the rate at which borrowings under the facility bore interest, payable monthly, at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR, with a LIBOR floor of 0.25%, plus a blended margin of 2.35% (2.15% prior to the April 2021 amendment).

In September 2022, the Company and its wholly-owned SPE, RMR II, amended and restated the credit agreement that provides for a revolving warehouse credit facility to RMR II to replace LIBOR as the benchmark rate for calculation of interest rate with a forward-looking term rate based on SOFR or, in certain limited circumstances, another alternative benchmark rate. The three-month LIBOR was replaced on October 1, 2022 by three-month SOFR with a floor of 0.25%, plus a 2.35% margin, and a benchmark adjustment.

In March 2023, the Company and RMR II exercised the right to make an optional principal repayment in full, and in connection with such repayment, the facility terminated.

RMR IV Revolving Warehouse Credit Facility: In April 2021, the Company and its wholly-owned SPE, Regional Management Receivables IV, LLC (“RMR IV”), entered into a credit agreement that provides for a $125 million revolving warehouse credit facility to RMR IV. The facility was to convert to an amortizing loan in April 2023 and terminates in April 2024. The debt is secured by finance receivables and other related assets that the Company purchased from its affiliates, which the Company then sold and transferred to RMR IV. Advances on the facility are capped at 81% of eligible finance receivables.

In September 2022, the Company and its wholly-owned SPE, RMR IV, amended and restated the credit agreement that provides for a revolving warehouse credit facility to RMR IV to replace LIBOR as the benchmark rate for calculation of interest rate with a forward-looking term rate based on SOFR or, in certain limited circumstances, another alternative benchmark rate. The one-month LIBOR was replaced on October 1, 2022 by one-month SOFR with a margin of 2.35% and a benchmark adjustment. The effective interest rate was 7.12% as of March 31, 2023. RMR IV pays an unused commitment fee between 0.35% and 0.70% based upon the average daily utilization of the facility. RMR IV had $22.9 million of immediate availability to draw down cash under the facility and held $0.3 million in restricted cash reserves as of March 31, 2023 to satisfy provisions of the credit agreement.

RMR V Revolving Warehouse Credit Facility: In September 2022, the Company and its wholly owned SPE, Regional Management Receivables V, LLC (“RMR V”), amended and restated the credit agreement that provides for a $100 million revolving warehouse credit facility to RMR V to extend the date at which the facility converts to an amortizing loan and the termination date to November 2022 and November 2023, respectively (October 2022 and October 2023, respectively, prior to the September 2022 amendment). Following a subsequent amendment in November 2022, the amortizing loan conversion date and termination date were extended to November 2024 and November 2025, respectively. The debt is secured by finance receivables and other related assets that the Company purchased from its affiliates, which the Company then sold and transferred to RMR V. Advances on the facility are capped at 80% of eligible finance receivables. Borrowings under the facility bear interest, payable monthly, at a per annum rate, which in the case of a conduit lender is the commercial paper rate, plus a margin of 2.75% (2.20% prior to the November 2022 amendment). The effective interest rate was 7.87% as of March 31, 2023. RMR V pays an unused commitment fee between 0.45% and 0.75% based upon the average daily utilization of the facility.

RMR VI Revolving Warehouse Credit Facility: In February 2023, the Company and its wholly-owned SPE, Regional Management Receivables VI, LLC (“RMR VI”), entered into a credit agreement that provides for a $75 million revolving warehouse credit facility to RMR VI. The facility converts to an amortizing loan in February 2025 and terminates in February 2026. The debt is secured by finance receivables and other related assets that the Company purchased from its affiliates, which the Company then sold and transferred to RMR VI. Advances on the facility are capped at 80% of eligible finance receivables. Borrowings under the facility bear interest, payable monthly, at a rate equal to one-month SOFR, plus (i) 0.10% per annum, (ii) a margin of 2.50%, and (iii) the applicable step-up margin (0.00% during the revolving period). The effective interest rate was 7.27% as of March 31, 2023. RMR VI pays a monthly unused commitment fee of 0.50%.
