Current report
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Current report
Other expense increased $0.1 million to $0.5 million of expense in 2025 from $0.3 million of expense in 2024. The increase in other expense is due to costs associated with credit agreement refinancing partially offset by recovery of employment tax credits.
Current report
On October 28, 2025, the Company entered into a credit agreement with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Citizens Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent, as an LC issuer, and as the swing line lender (the “Citizens Credit Agreement”). The Citizens Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s prior credit facility with TD Bank, N.A. (“TD Bank”), which was repaid using borrowings under the Citizens Credit Agreement and terminated on October 28, 2025. SeeNote 6 - Debt for additional information regarding the terms of the prior credit facility with TD Bank. The Citizens Credit Agreement established a new $100 million five-year unsecured revolving credit facility and provides for the extension of credit to the Company in the form of revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Citizens Credit Agreement. See Note 6, Debt, for additional information regarding the terms of the Citizens Credit Agreement, including repayment terms, interest rates, and applicable loan covenants. Under the terms of the Citizens Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to restrictive covenants that limit our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, or make other distributions, and consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of assets, as well as financial covenants that require us to maintain a maximum senior net leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. These covenants may limit how we conduct our business, and in the event of certain defaults, our repayment obligations may be accelerated.
Current report
The Company was in compliance with all its covenants under the Citizens Credit Agreement as of January 3, 2026 and through the date of filing this Form 10-K. The Company has $66 million available on its line of credit under the Citizens Credit Agreement as of the date of filing this Form 10-K.

Previous report
Other income and expense decreased $1.2 million to $0.3 million of expense in 2024 from $0.9 million of income in 2023. The decrease in other income and expense of $1.2 million was due to a $1.6 million favorable adjustment for the final settlement of our swap agreement with Santander in the second quarter of 2023 that did not recur in 2024, partially offset by an unfavorable working capital adjustment of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 related to the sale of the Greenwald business.
Previous report
On June 16, 2023, the Company entered into a credit agreement with TD Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, and M&T Bank as lenders (the “Credit Agreement”), that included a $60 million term portion and a $30 million revolving commitment portion. The proceeds of the term loan were used to repay the Company’s remaining outstanding term loan and to terminate its existing credit facility with Santander Bank, N.A. (approximately $59 million). The term loan portion of the credit facility requires quarterly principal payments of (i) $750,000 beginning on September 30, 2023 through June 30, 2025, (ii) $1,125,000 beginning on September 30, 2025 through June 30, 2027, and (iii) $1,500,000 beginning on September 30, 2027 through March 31, 2028, with the balance of the term loan payable on the maturity date of June 16, 2028. Amounts outstanding under the revolving portion of the credit facility are generally due and payable on June 16, 2028, the expiration date of the Credit Agreement. The Company can elect to prepay some or all the outstanding balance from time to time without penalty. A commitment fee is payable on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility based on the Company’s consolidated ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA from time to time. Currently, the commitment fee is 0.30%.
Previous report
The term loan bears interest at a variable rate based on the term secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), plus an adjustment of ten basis points, plus an applicable margin of 1.875% to 2.625%, depending on the Company’s senior net leverage ratio. Borrowings under the revolving portion bear interest at a variable rate based on, at the Company’s election, a base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.875% to 1.625% or term SOFR, plus an adjustment of ten basis points, plus an applicable margin of 1.875% to 2.625%, with such margins determined based on the Company’s senior net leverage ratio. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a lien on certain of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of June 16, 2023, with TD Bank, N.A., as administrative agent.
Previous report
The Company’s loan covenants under the Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain a senior net leverage ratio not to exceed 3.5 to 1. In addition, the Company is required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio to be not less than 1.25 to 1. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023. A decrease in earnings due to the impact of current economic conditions and inflationary pressures or the resulting harm to the financial condition of our customers, or an increase in indebtedness incurred to offset such a decrease in earnings, would have a negative impact on our senior net leverage ratio and our fixed charge coverage ratio, which in turn would increase the cost of borrowing under the Credit Agreement and could cause us to fail to comply with the covenants under our Covenant Agreement.
Previous report
In addition to funding capital requirements, we may use available cash to pay down our indebtedness, to make investments, which may include investments in publicly traded securities, or to make acquisitions that we believe will complement or expand our existing businesses.

Previous wording
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Areas of uncertainty that require judgments, estimates and assumptions include items such as the allowance for doubtful accounts; inventory accounting; the testing of goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment; and pensions and other postretirement benefits. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make its estimates and assumptions, but actual results will inevitably differ from the estimates and assumptions that are used to prepare the Company’s financial statements at any given time. Despite these inherent limitations, management believes that Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the financial statements and related footnotes provide a meaningful and fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
