Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES | NOTE 8 – DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES CRG Term Loan Agreement On April 17, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a term loan agreement, by and among the Company, as borrower, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto from time to time (collectively, the “Guarantors”), CRG Servicing LLC as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), and the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “CRG Term Loan Agreement”), providing for a senior secured term loan of up to $55.0 million (the “CRG Term Loan”). As of December 31, 2024, the CRG Term Loan Agreement provided for (i) $15.0 million of the CRG Term Loan that was borrowed on the Closing Date (the “First Borrowing”) and (ii) up to an aggregate of $40.0 million available for borrowing in two subsequent borrowings, provided that each such borrowing was required to be at least $5.0 million and occur between the Closing Date and June 30, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the Agent having received certain fees. The Company used a portion of the initial proceeds of the First Borrowing under the CRG Term Loan to extinguish the Cadence Term Loan described further below. On September 4, 2024, the Company, pursuant to its option under the CRG Term Loan Agreement, borrowed an additional $15.5 million under the CRG Term Loan Agreement (the “Second Borrowing”). The Company used $5.0 million of the proceeds of the Second Borrowing for its investment in CMp. The First Borrowing, Second Borrowing and any additional borrowings under the CRG Term Loan are due and payable on March 30, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”), absent any acceleration. The CRG Term Loan bears interest at a per annum rate equal to 13.25% (subject to a 4.0% increase during an event of default), of which 8.00% must be paid in cash and 5.25% may, at the election of the Company, be deferred through the 19th quarterly Payment Date (defined below) by adding such amount to the aggregate principal loan amount, so long as no default or event of default under the CRG Term Loan Agreement has occurred and is continuing. The Company is required to make quarterly interest payments on the final business day of each calendar quarter following the Closing Date, commencing on the first such date to occur at least 30 days after the Closing Date (each, a “Payment Date”). Interest is payable on each Payment Date in arrears with respect to the time between each Payment Date and upon the payment or prepayment of the CRG Term Loan, ending on the Maturity Date. In addition, the Company is required to pay an upfront fee of 1.50% of the principal amount of the CRG Term Loan, which is payable as amounts are advanced under the CRG Term Loan on a pro rata basis. The Company is also required to pay a back-end fee equal to 7.00% of the aggregate principal amount advanced under the CRG Term Loan Agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company paid $1,278,424 of interest in cash and recorded $838,965 of interest paid-in-kind related to the CRG Term Loan. The paid-in-kind interest was applied to the principal balance of the CRG Term Loan. The Company recorded $358,086 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to interest expense related to the back-end fee. The back-end fee is accreted and amortized to interest expense over the term of the CRG Term Loan. Paid-in-kind interest and the accreted back-end fee are included in “Long-term debt, net of current portion” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of the CRG Term Loan with the proceeds of certain assets sales and in the event of a change of control of the Company. In addition, the Company may make a voluntary prepayment of the CRG Term Loan, in whole or in part, at any time. All mandatory and voluntary prepayments of the CRG Term Loan are subject to the payment of prepayment premiums as follows: (i) if prepayment occurs on or prior to the date that is one year following the applicable borrowing (the “Borrowing Date”), an amount equal to 10.0% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the CRG Term Loan being prepaid and (ii) if prepayment occurs one year after the applicable Borrowing Date and on or prior to two years following the applicable Borrowing Date, an amount equal to 5.0% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the CRG Term Loan being prepaid. No prepayment premium is due on any principal prepaid if prepayment occurs two years or more after the applicable Borrowing Date. Certain of the Company’s current and future subsidiaries, including the Guarantors, are guaranteeing the obligations of the Company under the CRG Term Loan Agreement. As security for their obligations under the CRG Term Loan Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company and the Guarantors entered into a security agreement with the Agent pursuant to which the Company and the Guarantors granted to the Agent, as collateral agent for the lenders, a lien on substantially all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ assets, including intellectual property (subject to certain exceptions). The CRG Term Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, including limitations on the Company’s and the Guarantors’ abilities, among other things, to incur additional debt, grant or permit additional liens, make investments and acquisitions above certain thresholds, merge or consolidate with others, dispose of assets, pay dividends and distributions and enter into affiliate transactions, in each case, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the CRG Term Loan Agreement contains the following financial covenants requiring the Company and the Guarantors in the aggregate to maintain:
| ● | liquidity in an amount which shall exceed the greater of: (i) $3.0 million and (ii) to the extent the Company has incurred certain permitted debt, the minimum cash balance, if any, required of the Company by the creditors of such permitted debt; and
| ● | annual minimum revenue of at least: (i) $60.0 million for the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2024 and ending on December 31, 2024, (ii) $75.0 million for the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2025, (iii) $85.0 million for the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2026 and ending on December 31, 2026, (iv) $95.0 million for the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2027 and ending on December 31, 2027, and (v) $105.0 million during each twelve-month period beginning on January 1 of a given year thereafter.
The CRG Term Loan Agreement contains representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantors customary for financings of this type, and also includes events of default customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, non-payment, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant breaches, a material adverse change, bankruptcy and insolvency, material judgments and a change of control, in certain cases subject to customary periods to cure. The occurrence and continuance of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the CRG Term Loan Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. Cadence Term Loan In connection with the entry into the Applied Purchase Agreement, on August 1, 2023, SMAT, as borrower, and the Company, as guarantor, entered into a loan agreement (the “Cadence Loan Agreement”) with Cadence Bank (the “Bank”) providing for, among other things, an advancing term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $12.0 million (the “Cadence Term Loan”), which was evidenced by an advancing promissory note. Pursuant to the Cadence Loan Agreement, the Bank agreed to make, at any time and from time to time prior to February 1, 2024, one or more advances to SMAT. The proceeds of the advances under the Cadence Loan Agreement were used for working capital and for purposes of financing up to one hundred percent (100%) of the Cash Closing Consideration and Installment Payments for the Applied Asset Purchase and related fees and expenses, including any subsequent payments that were due to the Sellers after the Closing. On August 1, 2023, the Bank, at the request of SMAT, made an advance for $9.75 million. The proceeds from the advance were used to fund the Cash Closing Consideration for the Applied Asset Purchase. The unpaid principal balance of outstanding advances bore interest, subject to certain conditions, at the lesser of the Maximum Rate (as defined in the Cadence Loan Agreement) or the Base Rate, which was for any day, a rate per annum equal to the term secured overnight financing rate (Term SOFR) (as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) for a one-month tenor in effect on such day plus three percent (3.0%). As of December 31, 2023, the interest rate on the advance under the Cadence Term Loan was 8.3%. On the Closing Date of the CRG Term Loan Agreement, the Cadence Loan Agreement was terminated and all outstanding amounts under the Cadence Term Loan were repaid in full and all security interest and other liens granted to or held by Cadence were terminated and released. In addition, unamortized debt issuance costs as of the termination date of $53,438 were included in “Interest expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
