CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements.” All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 15, 2022, and under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current belief, based on currently available information, as to the outcome and timing of future events.
 
Forward-looking statements may include statements about:
 
 
general economic conditions, including changes in employment levels, rates of inflation, consumer demand, preferences and confidence levels, fuel prices, levels of discretionary income, consumer spending patterns and uncertainty regarding the timing, pace and extent of an economic recovery in the United States;

 
economic conditions in certain geographic regions in which we primarily generate our revenue;

 
credit markets and the availability and cost of borrowed funds;

 
our business strategy, including acquisitions and Dealership same-store growth;

 
our ability to integrate acquisitions;

 
competition;

 
our ability to maintain our relationships with manufacturers, including meeting the requirements of our dealer agreements and receiving the benefits of certain manufacturer incentives;

 
demand for our products and our ability to maintain acceptable pricing for our products and services, including financing, insurance and extended service contracts;

 
effects of an inflationary environment on the cost of the products we sell and personnel and other expenses that are incurred within our operations;

 
our ability to finance working capital and capital expenditures;

 
our operating cash flows, the availability of capital and our liquidity;

 
our future revenue, Dealership same-store sales, income, financial condition, and operating performance;

 
our ability to sustain and improve our utilization, revenue and margins;

 
seasonality and inclement weather such as hurricanes, severe storms, fire and floods, generally and in certain geographic regions in which we primarily generate our revenue;

 
any potential tax savings we may realize as a result of our organizational structure;

 
our future operating results and profitability;

 
our ability to integrate the operations of Ocean Bio-Chem, Inc. (“Ocean Bio-Chem”) with our existing operations and fully realize the expected synergies of the Ocean Bio-Chem acquisition or on the expected timeline; and

 
plans, objectives, expectations and intentions contained in this Form 10-Q that are not historical.
 
We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to:

 
decline in demand for our products and services;

 
the effects of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic on the Company’s business;

 
other risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic including, among others, the ability to safely operate our locations, access to inventory and customer demand;

 
the seasonality and volatility of the boat industry;

 
global public health concerns, including the COVID-19 pandemic;

 
general domestic and international political and regulatory conditions, including changes in tax or fiscal policy and the effects of current restrictions on various commercial and economic activities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic;

 
environmental conditions and real or perceived human health or safety risks;

 
our acquisition strategies and our ability to integrate additional marine retailers;

 
effects of industry wide supply chain challenges and our ability to manage our inventory;

 
our ability to retain key personnel and the effects of labor shortages;

 
the inability to comply with the financial and other covenants and metrics in our credit facilities;

 
cash flow and access to capital;

 
the timing of development expenditures; and

 
 the other risks described under “Risk Factors” and discussed elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022 and discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.
 
Any forward-looking statement that we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

OneWater Marine Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1.
Description of Company and Basis of Presentation
 
Description of the Business


OneWater Marine Inc. (“OneWater Inc.”) was incorporated in Delaware on April 3, 2019 and was a wholly-owned subsidiary of One Water Marine Holdings, LLC (“OneWater LLC”). Pursuant to a reorganization on February 11, 2020 into a holding company structure for the purpose of facilitating an initial public offering (the “IPO”) and related transactions in order to carry on the business of OneWater LLC and its subsidiaries (together with OneWater Inc., the “Company”), OneWater Inc. is the holding company and its sole material asset is the equity interest in OneWater LLC. OneWater LLC was organized as a limited liability company under the law of the State of Delaware in 2014 and is the parent company of One Water Assets & Operations (“OWAO”), and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries.
 

The Company is one of the largest recreational boat retailers in the United States. The Company engages primarily in the retail sale, brokerage, and service of new and pre-owned boats, motors, trailers, marine parts and accessories, and offers slip and storage accommodations in certain locations. The Company also arranges related boat financing, insurance, and extended service contracts for customers with third-party lenders and insurance companies. As of December 31, 2022, the Company operated a total of 100 retail locations, 12 distribution centers/warehouses and multiple online marketplaces in 20 states, several of which are in the top twenty states for marine retail expenditures.
 

Operating results are generally subject to seasonal variations. Demand for products is generally highest during the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year and, accordingly, revenues are generally expected to be higher during these periods. General economic conditions and consumer spending patterns can negatively impact the Company’s operating results. Unfavorable local, regional, national, or global economic developments, global public health concerns, including the COVID-19 pandemic, or uncertainties could reduce consumer spending and adversely affect the Company’s business. Consumer spending on discretionary goods may also decline as a result of lower consumer confidence levels, even if prevailing economic conditions are otherwise favorable. Economic conditions in areas in which the Company operates stores, particularly in the Southeast, can have a major impact on the Company’s overall results of operations. Local influences such as corporate downsizing, inclement weather such as hurricanes and other storms, environmental conditions, and other events could adversely affect the Company’s operations in certain markets and in certain periods. Any extended period of adverse economic conditions or low consumer confidence is likely to have a negative effect on the Company’s business.
 

Sales of new boats from the Company’s top ten brands represent approximately 42.9% and 47.9% of total sales for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, making them major suppliers of the Company. Of this amount, Malibu Boats, Inc., including its brands Malibu, Axis, Cobalt, Pursuit, Maverick, Hewes, Cobia and Pathfinder accounted for 13.0% and 14.1% of consolidated revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As is typical in the industry, the Company contracts with most manufacturers under renewable annual dealer agreements, each of which provides the right to sell various makes and models of boats within a given geographic region. Any change or termination of these agreements, or the agreements discussed above, for any reason, or changes in competitive, regulatory, or marketing practices, including rebate or incentive programs, could adversely affect results of operations. Pre-owned boats are usually trade-ins from retail customers who are purchasing a boat from the Company.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 

As the sole managing member of OneWater LLC, OneWater Inc. operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs of OneWater LLC. Through OneWater LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as well as majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control, OneWater Inc. conducts its business. As a result, OneWater Inc. consolidates the financial results of OneWater LLC and its subsidiaries and reports non-controlling interests related to the portion of units of OneWater LLC (the “OneWater LLC Units”) not owned by OneWater Inc., which will reduce net income (loss) attributable to OneWater Inc.’s Class A stockholders. As of December 31, 2022, OneWater Inc. owned 90.9% of the economic interest of OneWater LLC.



Commencing December 31, 2021, the Company owns 80% of the economic interest of Quality Assets and Operations, over which the Company exercises control and the minority interest in this subsidiary has been recorded accordingly. See note 4 for additional information regarding the acquisition.
 
Basis of Financial Statement Preparation
 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, which do not include all the information and notes required by such accounting principles for annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with OneWater Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022. All adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation, have been reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.


All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company operates on a fiscal year basis with the first day of the fiscal year being October 1, and the last day of the year ending on September 30.
 
COVID-19 Pandemic
 

The duration and related impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements is currently uncertain, and it is possible that the pandemic, including the resurgence of COVID-19 in certain geographic areas or the emergence of variant strains of the virus, may negatively impact the Company’s future results of operations. The impact of COVID-19 on our suppliers and the increase in demand for marine retail products has led to industry-wide supply chain constraints and although there are indications that the supply chain constraints are easing, it is unclear when the issue will be fully resolved. The Company is monitoring and assessing the situation and preparing for implications to the business, including the ability to safely operate its locations, access to inventory and customer demand.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash


At times the amount of cash on deposit may exceed the federally insured limit of the bank. Deposit accounts at each of the institutions are insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). At December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the Company exceeded FDIC limits at various institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes there is little to no exposure to any significant credit risk.

Restricted Cash


Restricted cash relates to amounts collected for pre-owned sales, in certain states, which are held in escrow on behalf of the respective buyers and sellers for future purchases of boats. Total customer deposits are shown as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets. These liabilities may be more than the applicable restricted cash balances and fluctuate due to timing differences and because in certain states the deposits are not restricted from use.


Inventories
 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of the new and pre-owned boat inventory is determined using the specific identification method. In assessing lower of cost or net realizable value the Company considers the aging of the boats, historical sales of a brand and current market conditions. The cost of acquired, manufactured and assembled parts and accessories is determined using methods which vary by subsidiary and include both the average cost method and first-in, first-out (“FIFO”).
 
Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets


Goodwill and intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, ‘‘Intangibles - Goodwill and Other’’ (‘‘ASC 350’’), which provides that the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired, including other identifiable intangible assets, is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is an asset representing operational synergies and future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. In accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that impairment might have occurred. ASC 350 also states that if an entity determines, based on an assessment of certain qualitative factors, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, then a quantitative goodwill impairment test is unnecessary.



Identifiable intangible assets consist of trade names, developed technologies, including design libraries, and customer relationships related to the acquisitions the Company has completed. The Company has determined that trade names have an indefinite life, as there are no economic, contractual or other factors that limit their useful lives and they are expected to generate value as long as the trade name is utilized by the Company, and therefore, are not subject to amortization. Developed technologies and customer relationships are amortized over their estimated useful lives of ten years and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Financial statement risk exists to the extent identifiable intangibles become impaired due to the decrease in the fair value of the identifiable assets.

 
Sales Tax
 

The Company collects sales tax on all of the Company’s sales to nonexempt customers and remits the entire amount to the states that imposed the sales tax on and concurrent with specific sales transactions. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the states from revenues and cost of sales.
 
Revenue Recognition
 

Revenue is recognized from the sale of products and commissions earned on new and pre-owned boats (including used, brokerage, consignment and wholesale) when ownership is transferred to the customer, which is generally upon acceptance or delivery to the customer. At the time of acceptance or delivery, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the benefits at such time. We are the principal with respect to revenue from new, pre-owned and consignment sales and such revenue is recorded at the gross sales price. With respect to brokerage transactions, we are acting as an agent in the transaction, therefore the fee or commission is recorded on a net basis.


Revenue from parts and accessories sold directly to a customer (not on a repair order) is recognized when control of the item is transferred to the customer, which is typically upon shipment. Revenue from parts and service operations (boat maintenance and repairs) are recorded over time as services are performed. Satisfaction of this performance obligation creates an asset with no alternative use for which an enforceable right to payment for performance to date exists within our contractual agreements. Each boat maintenance and repair service is a single performance obligation that includes both the parts and labor associated with the service. Payment for boat maintenance and repairs is typically due upon the completion of the service, which is generally completed within a period of one year or less from contract inception. The Company recorded contract assets in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $3.7 million as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022.

 

Certain parts and service transactions require the Company to perform shipping and handling activities after the transfer of control to the customer (e.g., when control transfers prior to delivery). They are considered fulfillment activities and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.



Revenue from storage and marina operations is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract as services are completed. Revenue from arranging financing, insurance and extended warranty contracts to customers through various third-party financial institutions and insurance companies is recognized when the related boats are sold. We do not directly finance our customers’ boat, motor or trailer purchases. We are acting as an agent in the transaction, therefore the commission is recorded on a net basis. Subject to our agreements and in the event of early cancellation, prepayment or default of such loans or insurance contracts by the customer, we may be assessed a chargeback for a portion of the commission paid by the third-party financial institutions and insurance companies. We reserve for these chargebacks based on our historical experience with repayments or defaults. Chargebacks were not material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.



Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenues from marina and storage operations and customer deposits and are classified in customer deposits in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Deposits received from customers are recorded as a liability until the related sales orders have been fulfilled by us and control of the vessel or part/accessory is transferred to the customer. The activity in customer deposits for the three months ended December 31, 2022 is as follows:

Income Taxes
 

OneWater Inc. is a corporation and as a result, is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the book value and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period in which the enactment date occurs. We recognize deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets are more-likely-than-not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations.


OneWater LLC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and therefore does not pay U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. Instead, the OneWater LLC members are liable for U.S. federal income tax on their respective shares of the Company’s taxable income reported on the members’ U.S. federal income tax returns.


When there are situations with uncertainty as to the timing of the deduction, the amount of the deduction, or the validity of the deduction, the Company adjusts the financial statements to reflect only those tax positions that are more-likely-than-not to be sustained. Positions that meet this criterion are measured using the largest benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are included in the benefit (provision) for income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations.

Vendor Consideration Received
 

Consideration received from vendors is accounted for in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 330, ‘‘Inventory’’ (‘‘ASC 330’’). Pursuant to ASC 330, manufacturer incentives based upon cumulative volume of sales and purchases are recorded as a reduction of inventory cost and related cost of sales when the amounts are probable and reasonably estimable.
 
Use of Estimates
 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of any revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, those relating to inventory mark downs, certain assumptions related to intangible and long-lived assets and valuation of contingent consideration.

 
Segment Information
 

Effective August 9, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Ocean Bio-Chem, Inc., and Star Brite Europe, Inc (collectively “Ocean Bio-Chem”), which changed management’s reporting structure and operating activities. We now report our operations through two reportable segments: Dealerships and Distribution. The Dealership segment engages in the sale of new and pre-owned boats, arranges financing and insurance products, performs repairs and maintenance services, offers marine related parts and accessories and offers slip and storage accommodations in certain locations. The Distribution segment engages in the manufacturing, assembly and distribution primarily of marine related products to distributors, big box retailers and online retailers through a network of warehouse and distribution centers. Each reporting segment has discrete financial information and is regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as its CODM. The change in reportable segments had no impact on the Company’s previously reported historical consolidated financial statements.

3.
New Accounting Pronouncements
 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which is intended to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to the recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The pronouncement is effective for a public company’s annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements. The Company plans to adopt the pronouncement in fiscal year 2024.



Other than as noted above, there are no new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

4.
Acquisitions
 

The results of operations of acquisitions are included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date. The purchase price of acquisitions is allocated to identifiable tangible assets and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date, with the excess being allocated to goodwill. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on information currently available. For the fiscal first quarter 2023 acquisitions, the valuation of tangible assets, assumed liabilities and identifiable intangible assets are preliminary as the acquisitions are subject to certain customary closing and post-closing adjustments and certain valuations are not complete. Any changes to the value of identifiable intangible assets will be reclassified from goodwill upon the completion of the valuations.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, the Company completed the following transactions:

 
On October 1, 2022, Taylor Marine Centers with locations in Maryland and Delaware

 
On December 1, 2022, Harbor View Marine with locations in Alabama and Florida


Consideration paid for the acquisitions was $41.8 million with $28.6 million paid at closing, $10.6 million in non-cash financing and the remaining $2.6 million in estimated payments of contingent consideration. The estimated payments of contingent consideration are part of earnouts related to the achievement of certain post-acquisition increases in adjusted EBITDA of the acquired companies. The acquisition contingent consideration was developed using weighted average projections based on the Company’s historical experience and current forecasts for the industry. There are no minimum or maximum payouts on the acquisition contingent consideration.



The table below summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, including the goodwill recorded as a result of the transaction:

In connection with the acquisition of Harbor View Marine, an entity affiliated with the Company agreed to acquire the real estate for the two acquired locations, in effect providing non-cash financing. The Company has accounted for this transaction as a sale and leaseback of the properties in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. There was no gain or loss recorded as part of the transaction. The leases for the two properties include an initial term of 15 years and two, five-year renewal options. The leases are accounted for as an operating leases and are included in the operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.



We expect substantially all of the goodwill related to acquisitions completed during the three months ended December 31, 2022 to be deductible for federal income tax purposes. The fair value of trade name intangible assets as of the acquisition date were determined using the relief from royalty model.



Included in our results for the three months ended December 31, 2022, the acquisitions contributed $8.7 million to our consolidated revenue and $0.5 to our income before income tax expense, respectively. Costs related to acquisitions are included in transaction costs and primarily relate to legal, accounting, valuation and other fees, which are charged directly to operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as incurred in the amount of $0.8 for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Comparatively, we recorded $3.0 million in acquisition related transaction costs for the three months ended December 31, 2021.


The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information as if all acquisitions in the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 had occurred on October 1, 2021:

Accounts Receivable



Accounts receivable primarily consists of trade accounts receivable, contracts in transit and manufacturer receivables. Trade receivables include amounts due from customers on the sale of boats, parts, service, and storage. Contracts in transit represent anticipated funding from the loan agreement customers execute at the dealership when they purchase their new or pre-owned boat. These finance contracts are typically funded within 30 days. Amounts due from manufacturers represent receivables for various manufacturer incentive programs and parts and service work performed pursuant to the manufacturers’ warranties.



The allowance for credit losses is estimated based on past collection experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The activity for charges and subsequent recoveries is immaterial.

Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets
 

Our acquisitions have resulted in the recording of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is an asset representing operational synergies and future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized. Intangible assets consist of internally developed software, domain names and other identifiable intangible assets such as trade names, developed technologies, including design libraries, and customer relationships related to the acquisitions the Company has completed.

Notes Payable — Floor Plan
 

The Company maintains an ongoing wholesale marine products inventory financing program with a syndicate of banks. The program is administered by Wells Fargo Commercial Distribution Finance, LLC (“Wells Fargo”). On December 29, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Seventh Amended and Restated Inventory Financing Agreement (as amended, the “Inventory Financing Facility”) with Wells Fargo and the other financial institutions party thereto to increase the maximum borrowing amount available to $500.0 million. The Inventory Financing Facility expires on December 1, 2023. The outstanding balance of the facility was $425.4 million and $267.1 million, as of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively.



Interest on new boats and for rental units is calculated using the Adjusted 30-Day Average SOFR (as defined in the Inventory Financing Facility) (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin of 2.75% to 5.00% depending on the age of the inventory. Interest on pre-owned boats in calculated at the new boat rate plus 0.25%. Wells Fargo will finance 100.0% of the vendor invoice price for new boats, engines, and trailers. As of December 31, 2022 the interest rate on the Inventory Financing Facility ranged from 6.93% to 9.18% for new inventory and 7.18% to 9.43% for pre-owned inventory. As of September 30, 2022 the interest rate on the Inventory Financing Facility ranged from 5.33% to 7.58% for new inventory and 5.58% to 7.83% for pre-owned inventory. Borrowing capacity available at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 was $74.6 million and $232.9 million, respectively.



The Inventory Financing Facility has certain financial and non-financial covenants as specified in the agreement. The financial covenants include requirements to comply with a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined in the Inventory Financing Facility). In addition, certain non-financial covenants could restrict the Company’s ability to sell assets (excluding inventory in the normal course of business), engage in certain mergers and acquisitions, incur additional debt and pay cash dividends or distributions, among others. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2022.



The collateral for the Inventory Financing Facility consists primarily of our inventory that is financed through the Inventory Financing Facility and related assets, including accounts receivable, bank accounts and proceeds of the foregoing, and excludes the collateral that underlies the term note payable to Truist Bank.

Long-term Debt and Line of Credit


On August 9, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “A&R Credit Facility”) with Truist Bank. The A&R Credit Facility provides for a $65.0 million revolving credit facility (the “A&R Revolving Facility”) that may be used for revolving credit loans (including up to $5.0 million in swingline loans and up to $5.0 million in letters of credit) and a $445.0 million term loan (the “A&R Term Loan”). Subject to certain conditions, the available amount under the revolving credit facility and term loans may be increased by $125.0 million in the aggregate. The A&R Credit Facility bears interest at a rate that is equal to Term SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75% based on certain consolidated leverage ratio measures. The A&R Revolving Facility matures on August 9, 2027. The A&R Term Loan is repayable in installments beginning December 31, 2022, with the remainder due on August 9, 2027.



The A&R Credit Facility is collateralized by certain real and personal property (including certain capital stock) of the Company and its subsidiaries. The collateral does not include inventory and certain other assets of the Company’s subsidiaries financed under the Inventory Financing Facility. The A&R Credit Facility is subject to certain financial covenants related to the maintenance of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The A&R Credit Facility also contains non-financial covenants and restrictive provisions that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company to incur additional debt, transfer or dispose of all of its assets, make certain investments, loans or payments and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2022.
