Credit Agreement- Bank of Montreal
On May 23, 2012, the Company, through its subsidiaries Century Resorts Alberta, Inc. (“CRA”) and Century Casino Calgary Inc. (“CAL”) entered into a CAD 28.0 million ($27.5 million) credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (the “BMO Credit Agreement”). Proceeds from the BMO Credit Agreement were used to repay the Company’s mortgage debt related to the Edmonton property (the “Edmonton Mortgage”) and will also be used to pursue the development or acquisition of new gaming opportunities and for general corporate purposes. The BMO Credit Agreement has a term of five years and is guaranteed by the Company.
The BMO Credit Agreement consists of three credit facilities to be utilized as follows:
1.
|
Credit Facility A is a CAD 1.0 million ($1.0 million) revolving credit facility to be used for the costs of the financing, ongoing working capital requirements and operating regulatory requirements.
|
2.
|
Credit Facility B is a CAD 25.0 million ($24.5 million) committed, non-revolving, reducing standby facility. Up to CAD 11 million ($10.8 million) of the Credit Facility B may be used to repay all or part of the Edmonton Mortgage with the remainder available for working capital requirements and general corporate purposes. As described below, CAD 3.7 million ($3.6 million) was drawn down under Credit Facility B and was used, with cash on hand, to repay in full the Edmonton Mortgage.
Once the principal balance of the advance under Credit Facility B has been repaid, it cannot be re-borrowed.
|
3.
|
Credit Facility C is a CAD 2.0 million ($2.0 million) treasury management risk facility as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement.
|
As of June 30, 2012, the Company had approximately CAD 24.3 million ($23.8 million) available for borrowing under the BMO Credit Agreement.
The BMO Credit Agreement bears interest based on credit facilities as follows:
1.
|
Advances under Credit Facility A may be in the form of :
|
i.
|
Advances denominated in CAD and bearing interest at the lender’s floating rate for loans made in CAD plus a margin as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement, and/or
|
ii.
|
Advances denominated in USD and bearing interest at the lender’s floating rate for loan made in USD plus a margin as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement, and/or
|
iii.
|
Issuances of a CAD Letter of Credit (maximum face value CAD 100,000), bearing interest at a floating margin rate as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement.
|
2.
|
Advances under Credit Facility B may be in the form of:
|
i.
|
Advances denominated in CAD and bearing interest at the lender’s floating rate for loans made in CAD plus a margin as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement (CAD 500,000 minimum and CAD 100,000 increments thereafter);
|
ii.
|
Advances denominated in USD and bearing interest at the lender’s floating rate for loans made in USD plus a margin as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement ($500,000 minimum and $100,000 increments thereafter);
|
iii.
|
Advances denominated in USD and bearing interest at the LIBOR rate fixed for 1-6 months ($1 million minimum and $500,000 increments thereafter); and/or
|
iv.
|
A Bankers Acceptance denominated in CAD and bearing interest at a fixed rate as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement for 1-6 months (CAD 1 million minimum and CAD 500,000 increments thereafter).
|
3.
|
Longer term fixed rates of interest, up to and including the full five year term of the BMO Credit Agreement, can be achieved through the use of interest rate swaps with a deemed risk up to the maximum amount of Credit Facility C. As of June 30, 2012, no interest rate swaps were in use by the Company.
|
4.
|
Any funds that are not drawn down under either Credit Facility A or B are classified as a CAD Standby Facility.
|
Mortgage - Edmonton
On May 23, 2012, the Company repaid the outstanding balance of approximately $6.3 million on the Edmonton Mortgage. The repayment consisted of $6.1 million in principal and interest due on the Edmonton Mortgage and $0.2 million in prepayment penalties and unamortized deferred financing charges. This loan payoff was funded with a $3.6 million borrowing under the BMO Credit Agreement and $2.7 million of cash on hand. The repayment by the Company terminated the Edmonton Mortgage.
Deferred financing charges, which are reported as a component of other assets, are summarized as follows:

Amortization expense relating to deferred financing charges was $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, and is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all covenants related to its borrowings. Covenants of the BMO Credit Agreement include the following:
a)
|
Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement may not be greater than 3.00:1.00;
|
b)
|
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as defined by the BMO Credit Agreement may not be less than 1.20:1.00;
|
c)
|
CRA and CAL combined shareholder’s equity may not be less than CAD 20 million; and
|
d)
|
Capital expenditures in any fiscal year may not exceed CAD 4.0 million in aggregate, without the lender’s consent.
|
The consolidated weighted average interest rate on all borrowings for the Company was 17.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company currently pays a floating interest rate on its borrowings under the BMO Credit Agreement. The current interest rate is approximately 4.0%. The weighted average interest rate is higher than the 7.0% interest rate of the Edmonton Mortgage and the 4.0% interest rate under on the BMO Credit Agreement because the Company wrote off a total of $0.1 million in deferred financing costs and paid $0.2 million in prepayment penalties in May 2012 in connection with the repayment of the Edmonton Mortgage.
As of June 30, 2012, scheduled maturities of the long-term debt is as follows:

5. PROMOTIONAL ALLOWANCES
Hotel accommodations, bowling and food and beverage furnished without charge to customers are included in gross revenue at a value which approximates retail and are then deducted as complimentary services to arrive at net operating revenue.
The Company issues coupons for the purpose of generating future revenue. The cost of the coupons redeemed is applied against the revenue generated on the day of the redemption. In addition, members of the Company’s casinos’ player clubs earn points based on, among other things, their volume of play at the Company’s casinos. Players can accumulate points over time that they may redeem at their discretion under the terms of the program. Points can be redeemed for cash and/or various amenities at the casino, such as meals, hotel stays and gift shop items. The cost of the points is offset against the revenue in the period in which the points were earned. The value of unused or unredeemed points is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The expiration of unused points results in a reduction of the liability. As of June 30, 2012, the outstanding balance of this liability was $1.0 million.
Promotional allowances presented in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings include the following:

6. INCOME TAXES
The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted statutory tax rate in effect for the year these differences are expected to be taxable or reversed. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period. The recorded deferred tax assets are reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis by reviewing the Company’s internal estimates for future taxable income.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company has established a valuation allowance for its U.S. deferred tax assets of $5.2 million, a $0.9 million valuation allowance on its Calgary property and a $1.3 million valuation allowance on the Century Casinos Europe subsidiary deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future taxable income. The Company assesses the continuing need for a valuation allowance that results from uncertainty regarding its ability to realize the benefits of the Company’s deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets depends on generation of future taxable income in the jurisdictions where the assets are located during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. If the Company concludes that its prospects for the realization of its deferred tax assets are more likely than not, the Company will then reduce its valuation allowance as appropriate and credit income tax expense after considering the following factors:
·
|
The level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income in the jurisdictions where the assets are located over periods in which the deferred tax assets would be deductible;
|
·
|
Accumulation of net income before tax utilizing a look-back period of three years, and
|
·
|
Tax planning strategies.
|
The income tax provisions are based on estimated full-year earnings for financial reporting purposes adjusted for permanent differences. The Company’s provision for income taxes from operations consists of the following:

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The calculation of basic earnings per share considers only weighted average outstanding common shares in the computation. The calculation of diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, if dilutive, the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method and the assumed conversion of other convertible securities (using the “if converted” method) at the beginning of the year, or for the period outstanding during the year for current year issuances. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

Forward-Looking Statements, Business Environment and Risk Factors
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition, Century Casinos, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) may make other written and oral communications from time to time that contain such statements. Forward-looking statements include statements as to industry trends and future expectations of the Company and other matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts and are based on certain assumptions by management at the time such statements are made. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” or “continue,” and similar expressions or variations. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company based on information currently available to management. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, among others, the risks described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” under Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. We caution the reader to carefully consider such factors. Furthermore, such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
References in this item to “we,” “our,” or “us” are to the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis unless the context otherwise requires. The term “CAD” refers to Canadian dollars.
Amounts presented in this Item 2 are rounded. As such, rounding differences could occur in period over period changes and percentages reported throughout this Item 2.
OVERVIEW
Since our inception in 1992, we have been primarily engaged in developing and operating gaming establishments and related lodging, restaurant and entertainment facilities. Our primary source of revenue is from the net proceeds of our gaming machines and tables, with ancillary revenue generated from the hotel, restaurant, bowling and entertainment facilities that are a part of the casinos.
We currently own, operate and manage the following casinos through wholly-owned subsidiaries:
-
|
The Century Casino & Hotel in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada;
|
-
|
The Century Casino Calgary, Alberta, Canada;
|
-
|
The Century Casino & Hotel in Central City, Colorado; and
|
-
|
The Century Casino & Hotel in Cripple Creek, Colorado.
|
We also operate 12 ship-based casinos onboard four cruise lines; Oceania Cruises, TUI Cruises, Windstar Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises.
The following table summarizes the cruise lines for which we have entered into agreements and the associated ships on which we operate ship-based casinos.

* The casino operation on board Insignia was suspended on April 5, 2012, as the vessel was leased to a different cruise line by Oceania Cruises. We will not operate the ship-based casino as long as it is leased to a different cruise line.
** The Riviera ship-based casino began operations on May 3, 2012.
We also hold a 33.3% ownership interest in and actively participate in the management of Casinos Poland Ltd (“CPL”), the owner and operator of eight casinos in Warsaw, Katowice, Gydnia, Wroclaw, Lodz (opened February 16, 2012) Krakow (opened March 29, 2012), Sosnowiec (opened April 18, 2012) and Posnan (opened June 28, 2012) in Poland. We account for this investment under the equity method.
The Lodz casino is undergoing a full refurbishment and will have a grand re-opening during the fourth quarter of 2012. CPL has obtained an additional gaming license in the city of Plock, which is scheduled to open in the second half of 2012. In addition, CPL is participating in other license applications, including Warsaw. Decisions from the Polish Minister of Finance on these applications are pending.
We have a long-term management agreement to direct the operation of the casino at the Radisson Aruba Resort, Casino & Spa. We receive a management fee consisting of a fixed fee, plus a percentage of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Developments that we believe have impacted or will impact our results of operations are discussed below.
Century Casino & Hotel (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada)
On July 13, 2012, the Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission approved the addition of 30 slot machines to the gaming floor. The additional slot machines are expected to be added gradually during the third quarter of 2012. Once added, the 30 additional machines will bring the total slot machine count to 750 at our property in Edmonton.
In June 2012, construction began on Fort Road immediately in front of the casino entrance. Construction is expected to last through September 2012. This may adversely affect traffic to our casino during the third quarter of 2012.
Century Casino & Hotel (Cripple Creek, Colorado, United States)
The Waldo Canyon Wildfire, which occurred in and near Colorado Springs, Colorado in late June and early July 2012, had a significant negative impact on our business in Cripple Creek during the second quarter of 2012. Several thousand people in Colorado Springs, the metropolitan population which the casino primarily serves, were evacuated and the main highway to the casino, Highway 24, was closed for eight days from June 24, 2012 through July 1, 2012. We estimate that this event adversely affected our revenues for the second quarter by $0.2 million.
In August 2012, new owners of the Gold Rush Casino in Cripple Creek are planning to open the casino with approximately 300 slot machines and 3 table games. This casino is directly across the street from our property in Cripple Creek, and management believes the new casino will add additional competition to the already very competitive Cripple Creek market.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Net operating revenue at our property in Edmonton decreased by $0.2 million, or 2.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in net operating revenue is due to a decrease in the average exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar of 4.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months June 30, 2011 (the “4.4% exchange rate decrease”).
In CAD, net operating revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 1.3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due to increases in gaming, hotel, food, beverage and other revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in gaming revenue is due to 32 additional slot machines added to the floor during the second quarter of 2012. The increase in hotel, food and beverage revenue is due to higher hotel room occupancy. The increase in other revenue is due to increased showroom and Comedy Club ticket sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Total operating costs and expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 2.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in total operating costs and expenses occurred as a result of the 4.4% exchange rate decrease.
In CAD, total operating costs and expense increased by $0.1 million, 1.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.

As a result of the foregoing, earnings from operations decreased by $0.1 million, or 3.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Net earnings decreased by $0.1 million, or 9.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in net earnings is due to foregoing operational items as well as an increase in interest expense and deferred financing charges of $0.2 million resulting from prepayment penalties related to early payoff of the mortgage related to the Edmonton property (“Edmonton Mortgage”) offset by a decrease in income tax expense of $0.1 million. In CAD, net earnings decreased by $0.2 million, or 22.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
General and administrative expenses for Corporate Other consist primarily of legal and accounting fees, corporate travel expenses, corporate payroll, the amortization of stock based compensation and other expenses not directly related to any of the Company's individual properties. General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.6 million, or 30.6%, and $0.7 million or 20.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 due to a reduction in payroll, professional services and stock compensation costs.
Earnings from Equity Investment
We own 33.3% of all shares issued by CPL. Our portion of CPL’s earnings is recorded as earnings from equity investment. We recorded a decrease of $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively, in earnings from our investment in CPL for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease is primarily the result of lower performing properties which were in a start-up phase after recently opening or relocating. We believe that CPL has maintained its market share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012.
In July 2011, the co-shareholders in CPL (LOT Polish Airlines and PPL Polish Airports) informed us of their intent to sell their shares in CPL (66.66% of the total shares) to Totalizator Sportowy Group, the state owned Polish national lottery firm. LOT Polish Airlines and PPL Polish Airports requested our consent to their respective conditional sales agreements, which under our CPL agreement was required as a condition to effect the share transfers. As no consensus about the future strategy and operational matters regarding CPL was received from Totalizator Sportowy Group, we were not in a position to provide our consent to the proposed sale transaction. As a result, we have been informed by LOT and PPL that the proposed sale transaction has been terminated.

Interest Income
Interest income is directly related to interest earned on our cash reserves.
Interest expense
The increase in interest expense of $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 is due to prepayment penalties related to the early payoff of the Edmonton Mortgage.
Taxes
Our foreign earnings significantly impact our tax rate. The Company’s income tax expense and effective tax rates by jurisdiction are summarized in the tables below:

The US income tax rate has increased significantly due to a one-time withholding tax payment of $0.1 million related to a Canadian intercompany payable.
The effective tax rates of our foreign properties are impacted by the movement of exchange rates primarily due to loans which are denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, foreign currency gains or losses recorded in each property’s local currency do not impact our earnings reported in U.S. dollars. Certain loans of the foreign properties are denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, foreign currency gains or losses can significantly impact each property's effective tax rate.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash Flows
Our business is capital intensive, and we rely heavily on the ability of our casinos to generate operating cash flow. We use the cash flows that we generate to maintain operations, fund reinvestment in existing properties for both refurbishment and expansion projects, repay third party debt, and pursue additional growth via new development and acquisition opportunities. When necessary and available, we supplement the cash flows generated by our operations with either cash on hand or funds provided by bank borrowings or other debt or equity financing activities.
On May 23, 2012, the Company through its Canadian subsidiaries entered into a CAD 28.0 million ($27.5 million) credit agreement with the Bank of Montreal (the “BMO Credit Agreement”). Proceeds from the BMO Credit Agreement were used to repay the Edmonton Mortgage and will also be used to pursue the development or acquisition of new gaming opportunities and general corporate purposes. The BMO Credit Agreement has a term of five years and is guaranteed by the Company. The BMO Credit Agreement contains a number of financial covenants applicable to the Canadian subsidiaries, in addition to covenants restricting their incurrence of additional debt. As of June 30, 2012, the amount outstanding under the BMO Credit Agreement was $3.6 million and we had approximately $23.8 million available under the BMO Credit Agreement (see Note 4 to condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the BMO Credit Agreement). We were in compliance with all covenants of the BMO Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2012.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $19.7 million at June 30, 2012, and we had working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of $11.6 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of $25.2 million and working capital of $6.0 million at December 31, 2011. The decline in cash is primarily due to $9.1 million in the repayment of the Edmonton Mortgage and $0.4 million deferred financing costs paid in relation to the BMO Credit Agreement. In addition, we invested $1.6 million in various capital expenditure projects and had a $0.3 million impact on cash balances due to changes in foreign exchange rates. These declines were offset by $3.6 million received from the BMO Credit Agreement, $2.1 million in cash provided by operating activities and $0.2 million in cash received from the exercise of stock options.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.1 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our cash flows from operations have historically been positive and sufficient to fund ordinary operations. Trends in our operating cash flows tend to follow trends in earnings from operations, excluding non-cash charges. Please refer to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and management’s discussion of the results of operations above.
Net cash used in investing activities of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of $0.6 million used to construct the new poker room and remodel the casino entrance in Calgary, $0.4 million used to purchase slot machines and a kiosk at our two Colorado properties, $0.3 million used to replace the carpet and a server at the casino in Edmonton, $0.1 million used to purchase slot machines for the ship-based casinos and $0.2 million used in cumulative additions at our remaining properties.
Net cash used in investing activities of $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 consisted of $0.7 million used to purchase slot machines and a kiosk, replace surveillance cameras, and purchase property in Central City, $0.5 million used in building renovations and electrical upgrades in Calgary, $0.2 million used to purchase slot machines and a kiosk in Cripple Creek, $0.1 million used for gaming equipment additions on cruise ship-based casinos and $0.2 million used in cumulative additions at our remaining properties.
Net cash used in financing activities of $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of $9.1 million in the repayment and prepayment of our Edmonton Mortgage and $0.4 million payment of deferred financing costs related to the BMO Credit Agreement offset by $3.6 million cash received from the BMO Credit Agreement and $0.2 million cash received for the exercise of stock options.
Net cash used in financing activities of $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 consisted of $3.1 million in the repayment and prepayment of our Edmonton Mortgage debt offset by a $0.2 million cash dividend received from our equity investment in CPL.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
Since 2000, we have had a discretionary program to repurchase our outstanding common stock. In November 2009, we increased the amount available to be repurchased to $15.0 million. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The total amount remaining under the repurchase program was $14.7 million as of June 30, 2012. The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date.
Potential Sources of Liquidity, Short-Term Liquidity
Historically, our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been cash flow from operations, bank borrowings, sales of existing casino operations and proceeds from the issuance of equity securities.
We expect that the primary source of cash will be from our gaming operations. In addition to the payment of operating costs, expected uses of cash within one year include capital expenditures for our existing properties, interest and principal payments on outstanding debt and potential repurchases of our outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 2012, we had approximately $23.8 million available under the BMO Credit Agreement.
We believe that our cash at June 30, 2012, as supplemented by cash flows from operations and funds available under the BMO Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating costs, capital expenditures at existing properties and current debt repayment obligations for at least the next 12 months. We will continue to evaluate our planned capital expenditures at each of our existing locations in light of the operating performance of the facilities at such locations. From time to time we expect to have cash needs for the development or purchase of new properties that exceed our current borrowing capacity. If necessary, we may seek to obtain term loans, mortgages or lines of credit with commercial banks or other debt or equity financings to supplement our working capital and investing requirements.
In addition, we expect our U.S. domestic cash resources will be sufficient to fund our U.S. operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. While we currently do not have an intent nor foresee a need to repatriate funds, if we require more capital in the U.S. than is generated by our U.S. operations either for operations, capital expenditures or significant discretionary activities such as acquisitions of businesses and share repurchases, we could elect to repatriate earnings from foreign jurisdictions or raise capital in the U.S. through debt or equity issuances, which could have adverse tax consequences as we have not accrued taxes for un-repatriated earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. The determination of the additional deferred taxes that would be provided for undistributed earnings has not been determined because the hypothetical calculation is not practicable.
We had no significant changes in our exposure to market risks from that previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures – Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officers and principal financial/accounting officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Co Chief Executive Officers and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the six months ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes or updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 except as set forth below.
Restrictions under the BMO credit agreement impose covenants that limit our operating flexibility, and a default could have a material adverse effect on us.
In May 2012, the Company’s Canadian subsidiaries entered into the BMO Credit Agreement, which has a term of five years and is guaranteed by the Company. The BMO Credit Agreement contains a number of significant financial covenants applicable to the Canadian subsidiaries, in addition to covenants restricting their incurrence of additional debt. These restrictions will limit the subsidiaries’ ability to obtain future financings to withstand a future downturn in our business or the economy in general, or to otherwise conduct necessary corporate activities. A breach of any covenant in the BMO Credit Agreement would result in an event of default under that agreement after any applicable grace periods. An event of default, if not waived or cured, could cause the lender to accelerate the repayment of all outstanding amounts due under the agreement, foreclosure on the security granted under the agreement and enforce the Company’s obligations under its guarantee, There can be no assurances that we or our subsidiary would be able to obtain a waiver of an event of default or modification of a covenant if necessary, or otherwise obtain alternative sources of funding to repay the obligation if a default occurred. Any such occurrences could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
In March 2000, our board of directors approved a discretionary program to repurchase up to $5.0 million of our outstanding common stock. In November 2009, our board of directors approved an increase of the amount available to be repurchased under the program to $15.0 million. The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date and had approximately $14.7 million remaining as of June 30, 2012. There were no repurchases of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
