Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide
the information required under Item 7A.
Interest Rate Risk
Our primary market risk exposure is changing interest rates. Interest rate risk is highly sensitive due to many factors, including United States monetary and tax policies, United States and international economic factors and other factors beyond our control. Under the new Credit Agreement, all outstanding loans bear interest based on either a base rate or SOFR plus an applicable per annum margin. The applicable per annum margin is 2.0% or 3.0% for base rate or SOFR, respectively, if the Company's total leverage ratio is equal to or greater than 2x. If the Company's total leverage ratio is equal to or greater than 1x and less than 2x, the applicable per annum margin is 1.5% or 2.5% for base rate or SOFR, respectively. If the Company's total leverage ratio is below 1x, the applicable per annum margin is 1.0% or 2.0% for base rate or SOFR, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we had term loan borrowings of $72.9 million in principal amount under the Loan Agreement. Based on the amount outstanding, a 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates over a twelve-month period would result in a change to interest expense of approximately $0.7 million.
Inflation Risk
Based on our analysis of the periods presented, we believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our operating results. There can be no assurance that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.
