Note
2
– Liquidity and Going Concern
 
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents as well as availability under the Credit Agreement with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) (see Note
3
). As indicated in Note
3,
twice during
2018
we violated covenants in our credit facility and as of
March 2019
we entered into a forbearance agreement with PNC. Under the terms of this agreement, financial covenants as of
March 31, 2019
were
not
considered and all previously identified compliance failures were waived, but we remain out of compliance with the terms of our credit facility, as amended, including the covenants as of
June 30, 2019
calculated on or about
July 31, 2019.
On
August 1, 2019,
PNC issued a Default and Reservation of Rights letter to the Company, in which PNC advised that line of credit advances would continue to be available to the Company at PNC’s sole discretion, and subject to its terms and conditions.
 
In addition to the above, due to financial performance in
2016,
2017
and
2018,
including net income/(losses) attributable to the Company of
$0.7
million, (
$1.6
million), and (
$3.6
million), respectively, we believe that substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern exists at
June 30, 2019.
 
Additionally, we have experienced challenges in maintaining adequate seasonal working capital balances, made more challenging by increases in financing and labor costs. These changes in cash flows have created strain within our operations and have therefore increased our desire to incorporate additional funding resources.
 
Management’s plans include:
 
(
1
)     Pursuing a strategically significant major capital event.
(
2
)     Working with our bank to resolve our compliance failure on a long-term basis.
(
3
)     Evaluating and potentially executing a sale/leaseback transaction of our facility in Lake Barrington, IL.
(
4
)     Continuing to monitor the equity market for the potential to complete the transaction attempted during
2018,
and
(
5
)     Exploring alternative funding sources.
 
Management Assessment
 
Considering both quantitative and qualitative information, we continue to believe that our plans to obtain additional financing will provide us with an ability to finance our operations through
2019
and, if adequately executed, will mitigate the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
