NOTE 6 – DEBT AND LINES OF CREDIT

 

The Company and its U.S. and Swiss subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) are parties to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement originally dated October 12, 2018 (as subsequently amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”). After giving effect to Amendment No. 7 thereto dated July 16, 2026, the Credit Agreement provides for a $75.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) and has a maturity date of July 16, 2031. The Facility includes a $15.0 million letter of credit subfacility, and a $25.0 million swingline subfacility, with provisions for uncommitted increases to the Facility of up to $50.0 million in the aggregate subject to customary terms and conditions. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants binding on the Company and its subsidiaries that are customary for credit facilities of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions and limitations on the incurrence of debt and liens, dispositions of assets, capital expenditures, dividends and other payments in respect of equity interests, the making of loans and equity investments, mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, and transactions with affiliates (in each case, subject to various exceptions).

The borrowings under the Facility are joint and several obligations of the Borrowers and are also cross-guaranteed by each Borrower, except that the Swiss Borrower is not liable for, nor does it guarantee, the obligations of the U.S. Borrowers. In addition, the Borrowers' obligations under the Facility are secured by first priority liens, subject to permitted liens, on substantially all of the U.S. Borrowers' assets other than certain excluded assets. The Swiss Borrower does not provide collateral to secure the obligations under the Facility.

As of both July 31, 2026, and July 31, 2025, there were no amounts of loans outstanding under the Facility. Availability under the Facility was reduced by the aggregate amount of letters of credit outstanding, issued in connection with retail and operating facility leases to various landlords and for Canadian payroll to the Royal Bank of Canada, totaling approximately $0.3 million at both July 31, 2026 and July 31, 2025. At July 31, 2026, the letters of credit have expiration dates through June 1, 2027. As of July 31, 2026, and July 31, 2025, availability under the Facility was $74.7 million and $99.7 million, respectively.

The Company had weighted average borrowings under the Facility of zero during both the three and six months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The Company's Swiss subsidiary maintains unsecured lines of credit with a Swiss bank that are subject to repayment upon demand. As of July 31, 2026, and 2025, these lines of credit totaled 6.5 million Swiss Francs for both periods, with a dollar equivalent of $8.0 million for both periods. As of July 31, 2026, and 2025, there were no borrowings against these lines. As of July 31, 2026 and 2025, two European banks had guaranteed obligations to third parties on behalf of two of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries in the dollar equivalent of $1.5 million in various foreign currencies in both periods. Of these amounts $0.8 million in both periods represented restricted deposits related to lease agreements.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2027, the Company incurred and capitalized $0.4 million of fees related to the amendment. These fees, along with the unamortized fees of $0.1 million paid related to the base Credit Agreement, are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 60 months, the revised term of the Facility, and are included in other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Cash paid for interest, including unused commitment fees, was $0.1 million for both the six-month periods ended July 31, 2026 and July 31, 2025 and amortization of debt fees was $0.1 million for both the six-month periods ended July 31, 2026 and July 31, 2025.
