Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
CREDIT FACILITIES AND DEBT | 4. CREDIT FACILITIES AND DEBT LC Facility On May 5, 2023, we amended our LC Facility with Whitney Bank to reduce our letters of credit capacity from $20.0 million to $10.0 million, subject to our cash securitization of the letters of credit, and extend the maturity date to June 30, 2024. Commitment fees on the unused portion of the LC Facility are 0.4% per annum and interest on outstanding letters of credit is 1.5% per annum. At December 31, 2023, we had $1.5 million of outstanding letters of credit under the LC Facility. See Note 7 for further discussion of our letters of credit and associated security requirements. Surety Bonds We issue surety bonds in the ordinary course of business to support our projects. At December 31, 2023, we had $52.5 million of outstanding surety bonds, of which $45.6 million relates to our Ferry Projects for our Shipyard Division and $6.9 million relates to our Fabrication Division contracts and certain of our insurance coverages. See Note 7 for further discussion of our surety bonds and related indemnification obligations. Note Agreement In connection with the resolution of our MPSV Litigation and the Settlement Agreement, on November 6, 2023, we entered into a promissory note (“Note Agreement”) with one of our Sureties (Fidelity & Deposit Company of Maryland (“FDC”) and Zurich American Insurance Company (together with FDC, “Zurich”)), pursuant to which we will pay Zurich $20.0 million. The Note Agreement bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.0% per annum commencing on January 1, 2024, with principal and interest payable in 15 equal annual installments of approximately $1.7 million, beginning on December 31, 2024 and ending on December 31, 2038. Future annual principal maturities under the Note Agreement are as follows (in thousands):
|  | Principal Maturities |
2024 |  | $ | 1,075 |
2025 |  |  | 1,108 |
2026 |  |  | 1,141 |
2027 |  |  | 1,175 |
2028 |  |  | 1,210 |
Thereafter |  |  | 14,291 |
Total maturities (1), (2) |  | $ | 20,000 |
(1) At December 31, 2023, the estimated present value of the Note Agreement amount was $12.7 million based on an estimated market rate of interest. (2) Due to the forbearance of interest until January 1, 2024, the effective rate on the Note Agreement is 2.9% per annum. Accordingly, we accrued interest expense of $0.1 million during 2023 associated with the difference between the effective interest rate and stated interest rate on the Note Agreement. See Note 7 for further discussion of the resolution of our MPSV Litigation and the Settlement Agreement. Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement In connection with the receipt of a consent for the Shipyard Transaction from Zurich, we entered into a multiple indebtedness mortgage (“Mortgage Agreement”) and a restrictive covenant arrangement (“Restrictive Covenant Agreement”) with Zurich to secure our obligations for our MPSV projects and forty-vehicle ferry projects. The Mortgage Agreement encumbers all real estate associated with the Houma Facilities and includes certain covenants and events of default. In connection with the resolution of our MPSV Litigation and Note Agreement entered into with Zurich, the Mortgage Agreement was modified on November 6, 2023, to include a provision requiring that 50 percent of the net proceeds received by us in excess of $8.0 million from the sale of any real estate of our Houma Facilities be used to make early payments on the principal balance under the Note Agreement. The Mortgage Agreement will terminate when the obligations and liabilities of Zurich associated with the outstanding surety bonds for the forty-vehicle ferry projects are discharged and the Note Agreement is repaid. The Restrictive Covenant Agreement precluded us from paying dividends or repurchasing shares of our common stock; however, in connection with the Settlement Agreement, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement was terminated. See Note 1 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction and Note 7 for further discussion of the resolution of our MPSV Litigation and the Settlement Agreement. Insurance Finance Arrangements In connection with the renewal of our property and equipment insurance coverages during 2022, and general liability insurance coverages during 2023, we entered into short-term premium finance arrangements (“Insurance Finance Arrangements”). The property and equipment arrangement totaled $2.4 million, payable in ten equal monthly installments through March 2023, with interest at a fixed rate of 4.3% per annum. The general liability arrangement totaled $0.5 million, payable in eight equal monthly installments through August 2023, with interest at a fixed rate of 6.6% per annum. We considered the transactions to be non-cash financing activities, with the initial financed amount reflected within accrued expenses and other liabilities, and a corresponding asset reflected within prepaid expenses and other assets, on our Balance Sheet. During 2023 and 2022, we made principal payments of $1.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively, which have been reflected as a financing activity on our Statement of Cash Flows.
