8. 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  September 30, 2025, we had borrowing capacity of $40.1 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.

 

The April 26, 2024 refinance of debt resulted in a $2.6 million expense within Interest Expense and Other - net in the accompanying Unaudited Combined Condensed Statements of Operations, consisting of a $1.1 million loss on term loan extinguishment and a $1.5 million term loan prepayment penalty for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The $1.1 million loss on term loan extinguishment is included as a noncash adjustment to net income and the $1.5 million prepayment penalty is included within Repayments of long-term debt in the accompanying Unaudited Combined Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ending September 30, 2024.

 

 

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. As of September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all credit facility covenants. The ABL Facility and Term Facility also contain restrictions on the amount of dividend payments and share repurchases. As of September 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with the amounts paid on dividends and share repurchases in accordance with our credit facilities.

 

We were in compliance with all applicable credit facility covenants under our previous term debt and asset-based lending credit facility through April 26, 2024, the date on which we refinanced such debt.
