Interest expense on finance lease liabilities and long-term debt was $0.2 million and less than $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Loan and Security Agreement On January 17, 2023, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) among Amtech, its U.S. based wholly owned subsidiaries Bruce Technologies, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation, BTU International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Intersurface Dynamics, Incorporated, a Connecticut corporation, P.R. Hoffman Machine Products, Inc., an Arizona corporation, and Entrepix, Inc., (collectively the “Borrowers”) and UMB Bank, N.A., national banking association (the “Lender”). The Loan Agreement provides for (i) a term loan (the “Term Loan”) in the amount of $12.0 million maturing January 17, 2028, and (ii) a revolving loan facility (the “Revolver”) with an availability of $8.0 million maturing January 17, 2024. The recorded amount of the Term Loan has an interest rate of 6.38%. The Revolver has a floating per annum rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted daily. Under the Loan Agreement, we are required to pay a non-utilization fee equal to 0.125% of any unused portion of the Revolver in excess of any letter of credit obligations. The Term Loan and Revolver are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Borrowers’ assets (other than certain customary excluded assets) and the Loan Agreement contains customary events of default, representations and warranties, and covenants that restrict the Borrowers’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, other than permitted indebtedness, enter into mergers or acquisitions, sell or otherwise dispose of assets, or pay dividends, subject to customary exceptions. The Loan Agreement additionally contains financial covenants such that, as of the end of each of their fiscal quarters, beginning March 31, 2023, the Borrowers must maintain (i) a ratio of consolidated debt owed to Lender to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for such fiscal quarter, of not greater than 1.50 to 1.00, through December 31, 2024, based on a building four quarters (as described in the Loan Agreement), and then 1.00 to 1.00 each fiscal quarter thereafter, (ii) a ratio of (a) the total for such fiscal quarter of EBITDAR (as defined in the Loan Agreement) minus the sum of all income taxes paid in cash plus cash dividends/distributions plus maintenance Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus management fees paid in cash, to (b) the sum for such fiscal quarter of (1) Interest Charges (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus (2) required payments of principal on Debt (as defined in the Loan Agreement) (including the Term Loan, but excluding the Revolver) plus (3) operating lease/rent expense, of not less than 1.30 to 1.00 based on a building four quarters (as described in the Loan Agreement), and (iii) a consolidated working capital of current assets (excluding related party receivables and prepaid expenses) minus current liabilities of at least $35.0 million. At September 30, 2023, we were not in compliance with the Debt to EBITDA and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio financial covenants under our Loan Agreement. On December 5, 2023, we entered into a Forbearance & Modification Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with UMB Bank related to such non-compliance, pursuant to which UMB Bank agreed to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies available to it as a result of such defaults. We will be operating under the terms of such Forbearance Agreement through January 17, 2025 (the “Forbearance Period”). The Forbearance Agreement also amends the Loan Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the availability under the revolving line of credit from $8.0 million to $14.0 million (the "Revolver"), and (ii) reduce the term loan commitment from $12.0 million to $4.4 million (the “Term Loan”). The Revolver maturity date was extended one year to January 17, 2025 and the Term Loan maturity date was extended one year to January 17, 2029. Both the Revolver and the Term Loan have a floating per annum rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted daily, plus the Applicable Margin (as such terms are defined in the Loan Agreement). We are required to pay a non-utilization fee equal to 0.125% of any unused portion of the Revolver in excess of any letter of credit obligations. As of September 30, 2023, no amounts were borrowed against the Revolver and there were no letters of credit outstanding. As of the effective date of the Forbearance Agreement, $10.0 million will be drawn under the Loan Agreement, which includes $4.4 million under the Term Loan and $5.6 million under the Revolver. As of December 31, 2023, $5.6 million was borrowed against the Revolver, and there was an outstanding letter of credit in the amount of $0.3 million. In January 2024, we made a $2.0 million principal payment on the Revolver. Future borrowings, if any, under the Loan Agreement are subject to, among other things, having sufficient unencumbered Eligible Accounts, Eligible Foreign Accounts and Eligible Inventory (as such terms are defined in the Loan Agreement) to meet the borrowing base requirements included in the amended Loan Agreement. Under the amended Loan Agreement, the Company is required to comply with the following financial covenants: • Maintaining, on a consolidated basis, a minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) through the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024, measured on a quarterly basis (the “Minimum EBITDA Covenant”). The Minimum EBITDA Covenant amount increases each quarter during such period. At December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the Minimum EBITDA Covenant for such period (not less than negative EBITDA of $1.2 million), with actual positive EBITDA of $0.2 million for such period. The Minimum EBITDA Covenant replaced the Senior Debt to EBITDA covenant set forth in the original Loan Agreement. • As of the end of each of the Company’s fiscal years, commencing for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024, the Company must maintain a ratio of (a) the total for such fiscal year of EBITDAR (as defined in the Loan Agreement) minus the sum of all income taxes paid in cash plus cash dividends/distributions plus maintenance Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus management fees paid in cash, to (b) the sum for such fiscal quarter of (1) Interest Charges (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus (2) required payments of principal on Debt (as defined in the Loan Agreement) (including the Term Loan, but excluding the Revolver) plus (3) operating lease/rent expense, of not less than 1.30 to 1.00 based on a trailing four (4) quarter basis (the “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant”). Prior to entering into the Forbearance Agreement, this covenant was measured as of the end of each of the Company’s fiscal quarters, beginning March 31, 2023. • As of the end of each of the Company’s fiscal quarters, commencing March 31, 2023, the Company must maintain a consolidated working capital of current assets (excluding related party receivables and prepaid expenses) minus current liabilities of at least $35.0 million. This financial covenant is unchanged in the Forbearance Agreement. If the Lender does not extend the Forbearance Period or otherwise grant a waiver in the future for the covenant defaults described above, an event of default under the Loan Agreement would exist. To the extent the Lender so elects, the outstanding indebtedness under the Loan Agreement could be accelerated following the expiration of any applicable cure periods, causing such debt to be immediately due and payable. In addition, should the Company default in its obligation to comply with any of the covenants described immediately above during the Forbearance Period, an event of default would then exist, and, absent a further forbearance agreement or waiver granted by the Lender, the Lender would have the right to accelerate the indebtedness following the expiration of any applicable cure periods, causing such debt to be immediately due and payable. Both of the foregoing events would also result in the termination of all commitments to extend further credit under the Loan Agreement. There is no guarantee we will have sufficient liquidity to repay our outstanding debt under the Loan Agreement in full if such debt were accelerated. As of December 31, 2023, we had $17.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $10.0 million in debt under the Loan Agreement. If we are unable to pay such debt as it comes due, or obtain waivers for such payments, our Lender could foreclose on the assets securing such debt. These events could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Finance Lease Obligations Our finance lease obligations totaled $0.1 million as of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023. The current and long-term portions of our finance leases are included in the current and long-term portions of finance lease liabilities and long-term debt in the table above and in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023. Further, see Note 6 for additional information.
