12. Senior Bank Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement

 

The Company and its subsidiaries have a Loan, Security and Guaranty Agreement for a $20 million asset-based senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with First Citizens Bank (“FCB”) (formerly CIT Bank, N.A.). The Facility is collateralized by 100% of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries who are co-borrowers and/or guarantors. The Facility matures on the fifth anniversary of the closing date (May 14, 2026).

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had no outstanding borrowings and $4,895 of unused capacity available for borrowing under the terms of the Facility. The Company had $25 and $102 in unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Facility as of March 31, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, which are reflected in other current assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amortization expense of these debt costs totaled $38 for the three-month periods and $76 for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The unused line fees incurred and included in interest expense totaled $25 for the three-month periods and $51 for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

On December 15, 2023, the Company and FCB entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Facility (“Amendment No. 2”), which provides for an increase in the Facility’s concentration limits for certain large clients at the discretion of FCB.

 

On January 3, 2025, in connection with its acquisition of Hornet, the Company and FCB entered into Consent and Amendment No. 3 to the Facility (“Amendment No. 3”), pursuant to which, FCB consented to the Hornet acquisition and the Company and its subsidiaries, as co-borrowers, the guarantors and FCB made certain amendments to the Loan Agreement and related collateral agreements to add Hornet to the Facility, accordingly.

 

On May 12, 2026, the Company and FCB entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Facility (“Amendment No. 4”) which extends the Facility expiration date from May 14, 2026, to May 13, 2027. Additionally, this amendment increases the availability block to the greater of $1.5 million, or 12.5% of the lesser of (i) the revolver commitment and (ii) the borrowing base. The Amendment No. 4 also contains two new requirements. First, during the term of the Facility, as amended, all cash and cash equivalents held by the Company will not exceed an aggregate amount of $25 million (or such greater amount that FCB may, in its sole discretion, otherwise consent to in writing). Second, within fourteen (14) days following the effective date of the Amendment No. 4, the Company has agreed to increase its cash on deposit with FCB and/or its affiliates and thereafter maintain such cash and cash equivalents on deposit in an aggregate amount of not less than $12 million (or such lesser amount that FCB may, in its sole discretion, otherwise consent to in writing).
