Subsequent Events [Text Block]	Note 16 - Subsequent Events On February 28, 2023 HireQuest, Inc. (the "Company") and all of its subsidiaries as borrowers (collectively with the Company, the "Borrowers") entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (the "Bank") for a $50 million revolving facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”), which includes a $20 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”). The Borrowers also have a one-time right, upon at least ten Business Days’ prior written notice to the Bank to increase the maximum amount of the Senior Credit Facility to $60 million. The Senior Credit Facility replaces the Company's prior $60 million credit agreement with Truist Bank. The Senior Credit Facility provides for certain financial covenants including an Asset Coverage Ratio of at least 1.0:1.0 at all times; maintaining a Total Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio not exceeding 3.0:1.0; and maintaining, on a consolidated basis, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.25:1.0. Interest will accrue on the outstanding balance of the Line of Credit at a variable rate equal to (a) the BSBY Daily Floating Rate plus a margin between 1.00% and 1.75% per annum. In each case, the applicable margin is determined by the Company's Total Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Senior Credit Facility will mature on February 28, 2028. The Credit Agreement and other loan documents contain customary representations and warranties, affirmative, and negative covenants, including without limitation, those covenants governing indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, restricting certain payments including dividends unless certain conditions are met, transactions with affiliates, investments, engaging in business other than the current business of the Borrowers and business reasonably related thereto, and sale/leaseback transactions. The Credit Agreement and other loan documents also contain customary events of default including, without limitation, payment default, material breaches of representations and warranties, breach of covenants, cross-default on material indebtedness, certain bankruptcies, certain ERISA violations, material judgments, change in control, termination or invalidity of any guaranty or security documents, and defaults under other loan documents. The obligations under the Credit Agreement and other loan documents are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers as collateral including, without limitation, their accounts and notes receivable, intellectual property and the real estate owned by HQ Real Property Corporation. The Company utilized the proceeds of the Senior Credit Facility (i) first to pay off its existing credit agreement with Truist, (ii) second, to pay off its existing term loan with Truist, and (iii) third, to pay transaction fees and expenses incurred in connection with closing the transactions described above. The Company intends to utilize the proceeds of any loans made under the Senior Credit Facility for working capital, required letters of credit, and general corporate purposes in accordance with the terms of the Senior Credit Facility. As part of this refinance we expect to record a loss on debt extinguishment of approximately $332 thousand. On March 1, 2023, we agreed to sell the assets we acquired in the Dental Power acquisition to an MRI franchisee, who will continue to operate the business as part of their franchise. The sale agreement calls for proceeds of $2 million payable over 5 years with a market rate of interest. We expect to recognize an estimated gain of approximately $340 thousand in the first quarter of 2023 upon completion of the transaction.
