16. Subsequent Event |
On July 6 and July 7, 2015, the Company, through its newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, Live Ventures, Inc. (Live Ventures), entered into a series of agreements in connection with its indirect purchase of Marquis Industries, Inc., a Georgia corporation (Marquis Industries), and its subsidiaries. The purchase and financing transactions were, in the aggregate, valued at approximately $30 million. The purchase was effectuated between Marquis Affiliated Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Marquis Holdings) that is 80% owned by Live Ventures, and the shareholders of Marquis Industries. The remaining 20% of Marquis Holdings is owned by the former owners of Marquis Industries. In connection with the purchase and finance transaction, various persons and entities entered into a series of agreements (each of which is dated on or about July 6, 2015, with funding occurring on July 6 and July 7, 2015).
The purchase price was paid through a combination of debt financing that was provided by (i) the Bank of America Term and Revolving Loan in the aggregate amount of (x) approximately $7.8 million for the term component and (y) approximately $15 million for the revolving component and (ii) a mezzanine loan in an amount of up to $7,000,000 provided by Isaac Capital Fund, a private lender whose managing member is Jon Isaac, the chief executive officer of the Company. In connection with operations of Marquis Industries after the closing of the purchase transaction, and as part of the Bank of America Term and Revolving Loan, Marquis Industries may borrow up to $15 million (based on eligibility).
The Bank of America term loan bears interest at a variable rate based on a base rate plus a margin. The current base rate is the greatest of (a) Bank of America prime rate, (b) the current federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or (c) 30-day LIBOR plus 1.00% plus the margin, which varies, depending on circumstances and as of closing was for the term component: 1.00% in excess of the base rate or 2.00% in excess of LIBOR, and for the revolving component: 0.75% in excess of the base rate or 1.75% in excess of LIBOR. Monthly payments to Bank of America are approximately $79,000 plus accrued interest. The term component is due and payable in July 2020, which is when the revolving component terminates.
The Isaac Capital Fund mezzanine loan bears interest at 12.5% with payment obligations of interest each month and all principal due in January 2021 (six months after the final payments are due under the Bank of America Term and Revolving Loan).
Marquis Industries had unaudited revenue and net income of approximately $59.1 million and $5.0 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014.
