This is rather ominous too, "Our bank financing facilities contain certain affirmative and negative covenants with which we must comply, including the maintenance by us of a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00, maintaining a tangible net worth of not less than $32.50 million, and maintaining a leverage ratio of not greater than .50 to 1.00. These financial covenants are applicable to the results of ASO. In the event we are not in compliance with a covenant, the bank may, among other things, accelerate all outstanding borrowings, cease extending credit or foreclose on collateral. As of March 31, 2014, we were not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio and minimum tangible net worth debt covenants. On May 7, 2014, the Company received a waiver for the existing defaults for the current quarter.
In October, 2013 we were notified by a customer that a previously booked payload processing contract would be deferred several weeks. Consequently, our financial projections for fiscal year 2014 indicated that we would likely not be in compliance with our debt service coverage ratio and minimum tangible net worth covenants by the third quarter ended March 31, 2014. As such, on October 11, 2013, we amended the debt agreement with our bank that updated the following with respect to our debt covenants: 1) provided a credit of $0.50 million and $2.25 million for the third and fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, respectively, to our debt service coverage calculation, 2) reduced our minimum tangible net worth requirement to $32.0 million for the third and fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2014, and 3) required that we maintain a minimum cash balance at the bank of $2.0 million through June 30, 2014 and $0.75 million thereafter. In November, 2013 we were subsequently notified by the same customer that this mission would be deferred. As a result of this deferral we did not meet our debt service coverage ratio and minimum tangible net worth covenants in the third quarter of fiscal 2014 and it is probable that we will not be in compliance as of June 30, 2014. As such, we have reclassified our long-term debt to current. We will continue to monitor this matter during the remainder of fiscal year 2014, and if necessary, pursue a debt amendment with our bank."
The reclassification has caused the company to now have a negative working capital deficit of $4 million.
