5. Line of Credit

The Company has a line of credit facility (the “Line”) up to $225.0 million, which matures on January 30, 2018. Prior to December 30, 2016 the pricing on the Line was 300 basis points above 30 day LIBOR with a 1% floor on LIBOR. Effective December 30, 2016, the Company executed an amendment to this existing Line which provided temporary adjustments to the calculation of availability and increased the pricing of the Line to 350 basis points above 30 day LIBOR while maintaining the 1% floor on LIBOR (4.50% at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017). The amendment provided for a temporary adjustment to the calculation of the availability under the Line effective as of December 30, 2016 and was in place through June 30, 2017. Regarding such adjustment, an additional event of default was added to the Line that would be triggered if the sum of the percentages of accounts that were more than thirty days past due, accounts that were charged off, and the value of repossessed vehicles held as assets exceeds a specified monthly threshold. Effective June 30, 2017, the Company executed another amendment to this existing Line which provides temporary relief on the threshold for the Minimum Interest Coverage ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2017. In addition, the pricing of the line will remain at 350 basis points above 30 day LIBOR while maintaining the 1% floor on LIBOR.

Pledged as collateral for this Line are all the assets of the Company. The Line requires compliance with certain financial ratios and covenants and satisfaction of specified financial tests, including maintenance of asset quality and performance tests. As of June, 30 2017, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

As disclosed in Note 4, the quality of the Company’s loan portfolio has been deteriorating, which has resulted in an increase in non-performing loans, increased delinquencies and other factors, which in turn has resulted in increased net charge-offs and an increase in the provision for credit losses. These conditions have resulted in a reduction in net earnings and have affected our borrowing capacity under the Line.

The Company’s operating results over recent quarters provided indicators that the Company may not be able to continue to comply with certain required financial ratios, covenants and financial tests prior to the maturity date of the Line in the absence of an amendment to the corresponding credit agreement. Failure to meet any financial ratios, covenants or financial tests could result in an event of default under our Line. If an event of default occurs under the Line, our lenders could increase our borrowing costs, restrict our ability to obtain additional borrowings under the Line, accelerate all amounts outstanding under the Line, or enforce their interest against collateral pledged under the Line.

The Company is in the process of providing information to the agent bank in the loan consortium, in the ordinary course of business as well as making changes in our policies and procedures which we believe will be successful in addressing some of the issues related to loan quality. We are also developing information pertaining to our expected borrowing needs, including proposed covenants, determination of lending levels and availability and other considerations to be submitted to the agent bank to assist in addressing the renewal of the Line upon expiration of the Line in January 2018. The Company has a longstanding relationship with its lenders. While management believes that it will be able to obtain a renewal or extension of the Line, there are no assurances that the lenders will approve the renewal or extension, or, assuming that they will approve it, that the Line will not be on terms less favorable than the current agreement. In the event that the Company obtains information that the existing lenders do not intend to extend the relationship, the Company will seek alternative financing. The Company believes it is probable that it will be able to obtain financing from either its existing lenders or from other sources; however, it can provide no assurances that it will be successful in replacing the Line on reasonable terms or at all.
