Senior Facilities
On September 30, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Agreement”) with Line Financial (the “Lender”), which provides for a senior secured financing consisting of a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $7 million, as amended (the “Maximum Revolver Amount”), subject to borrowing base provisions, and term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $731,250 (“Term Loan Amount” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Senior Facilities”). The Senior Facilities are secured by substantially all assets of the Company. The Company has remained in compliance with all material covenants since inception.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at the prime rate + 7.82% (14.57% as of December 31, 2025), payable monthly in arrears. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at the prime rate + 1.45% (8.2% as of December 31, 2025) and is repaid in 48 monthly installments of approximately $15,000, beginning November 1, 2021. The Company also pays collateral monitoring fees of 4.62% of the eligible accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment supporting both facilities.
Originally maturing September 30, 2023, the Senior Facilities were extended to April 30, 2027 pursuant to a Fifth Amendment executed on September 30, 2025, which also increased the revolving commitment from $6.0 million to $7.0 million and added a 0.75% renewal fee, payable in two equal installments in October 2025 and September 2026. A $12,500 commitment fee was also incurred. All other material terms, including borrowing base, collateral, and covenants, remained unchanged.
The facility automatically renews for successive one-year periods unless either party provides written notice of termination not less than 90 days prior to the end of the then-current term. The Company may prepay the Term Loan Facility (together with accrued interest and any applicable prepayment fee) in whole, but not in part, upon at least 60 days’ prior written notice
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the term loan balance was approximately $0.5 and $0.6 million, respectively, and the revolving balance was $6.8 million and $6.6 million, respectively. We had $0.2 million remaining available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2025.
The Agreement requires the Company to maintain minimum tangible net worth of $4.0 million, subject to adjustment by the Lender. The Company was in compliance with this covenant as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Agreement also limits additional indebtedness, liens, dividends, mergers, and annual capital expenditures exceeding $1.0 million.

About Debt Disclosures
Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.
Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
