Investissement Québec financing facility

 

On February 21, 2020, the Company received $1,530 (CDN$2,209) from Investissement Québec as the first disbursement of our financing facility, out of a maximum of $3,186 (CDN$4,600) (the “Financing Facility”). The loan’s interest rate was initially set at 2.36% and there was a 36-month moratorium on both capital and interest repayments starting on the date of the first disbursement, after which capital and interest is repayable in 84 monthly installments. The Company established the fair value of the loan for the first disbursement at $1,354 based on a discount rate of 5.45%, which reflected a debt discount of $291. The discount rate used was based on the external financing from a Canadian bank. The Company, under the loan agreement, was required to pay fees representing 1% of the loan amount, $32 (CDN$46) to Investissement Québec which we deferred and recorded as a reduction of the Financing Facility. Debt discount and deferred financing expenses are amortized to “Interest and other financial expenses” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

 

On August 26, 2021, the Company received $1,656 (CDN$2,391) from Investissement Québec as the second disbursement of the Financing Facility, the balance of the total amount available under the Financing Facility. The second disbursement bears the same interest rate and repayment terms as the first disbursement. The Company established the fair value of the loan for the first disbursement at $1,750 based on a discount rate of 3.95%, which reflected a debt discount of $139. The discount rate used was based on the external financing from a Canadian bank. There were no fees associated with the second disbursement. Debt discount and deferred financing expenses are amortized to “Interest and other financial expenses” in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

 

The Company recorded interest expense on the Investissement Québec loan for the year ended February 28, 2025 in the amount of $114 (2024 – $84) and an accretion expense of $45 (2024 – $71).

 

The Company also agreed to issue to Investissement Québec warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company in an amount equal to 10% of each disbursement up to a maximum aggregate amount of $319 (CDN$460). The exercise price of the warrants is equal to the higher of (i) $11.00 per share and (ii) the ten-day weighted average closing price of Loop shares of common stock on the Nasdaq stock market for the 10 days prior to the issue of the warrants. The warrants can be exercised immediately upon grant and have a term of three years from the date of issuance. The loan can be repaid at any time by the Company without penalty. In connection with the first disbursement of the Financing Facility, the Company issued a warrant (“First Disbursement Warrant”) to acquire 15,153 shares of common stock at a strike price of $11.00 per share to Investissement Québec. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing formula. The fair value of the First Disbursement Warrant was determined to be $78 and is included in “Additional paid-in capital – Warrants” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In connection with the second disbursement of the Financing Facility, the Company issued a warrant (“Second Disbursement Warrant”) to acquire 17,180 shares of common stock at a strike price of $11.00 per share to Investissement Québec. The Company determined the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing formula. The fair value of the First Disbursement Warrant was determined to be $69 and is included in “Additional paid-in capital – Warrants” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The First Disbursement Warrants expired in the year ended February 28, 2023 and the Second Disbursement Warrants expired in the year ended February 28, 2025.

On November 21, 2022, the Company and Investissement Québec entered into an agreement to amend the existing Financing Facility which modifies the repayments of the principal amount (the “Financing Facility Amendment”). As per the Financing Facility Amendment, a total of $37 (CDN $50) of the principal amount was repayable in monthly installments in the fiscal year ended February 29, 2024, with the remainder of the principal amount being repayable in 72 monthly installments.

 

On February 28, 2024, the Company and Investissement Québec entered into an agreement to amend the existing Financing Facility which modifies the repayments of the principal amount (the “Second Financing Facility Amendment”). As per the Second Financing Facility Amendment, a total of $74 (CDN $100) of the principal amount was repayable in monthly installments in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025, with the remainder of the principal amount being repayable in 60 monthly installments. Pursuant to the Second Financing Facility Amendment the interest rate of the Financing Facility was increased from 2.36% to 3.36%.

 

On February 5, 2025, the Company and Investissement Québec entered into an agreement to amend the existing Financing Facility which modifies the repayments of the principal amount (the “Third Financing Facility Amendment”). As per the Second Financing Facility Amendment, total annual principal repayments in monthly installments are of $287 (CDN $414) for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2026 and $495 (CDN $714) for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2027, with the remainder of the principal amount being repayable in 36 monthly installments. Pursuant to the Third Financing Facility Amendment the interest rate of the Financing Facility was increased from 3.36% to 4.36%.

 

Under the original terms of the Financing Facility, the principal amount was repayable in 84 monthly installments beginning in March of 2023. The amendments do not modify the repayment terms of accrued interest or any of the other terms of the Financing Facility that are not mentioned above. The amendments did not meet the criteria of ASC 470, Debt for an extinguishment of debt as the amendments did not substantially modify the terms of the Financing Facility. The Company therefore applied modification accounting and no immediate gain or loss was recognized related to the amendments.

 

Total repayments due on the Company’s indebtedness over the next five years are as follows:
