TULSA, Oklahoma - Educational Development Corporation (NASDAQ:EDUC), a small-cap education company with a market capitalization of $9.36 million, announced Tuesday it has executed the Ninth Amendment to its existing credit agreement with BOKF, NA, extending the maturity date on its revolving loan to September 19, 2025.

The amendment, which became effective July 11, aligns the revolving loan maturity with the company’s existing term loans associated with its real estate.

"Each month we continue to make our principal and interest payments on the Revolving Loan and Term Loans as scheduled," said Craig White, Chief Executive Officer of Educational Development Corporation, in a press release statement.

White indicated the company is exploring multiple solutions to pay off its line of credit through alternative financing sources, including potentially selling or refinancing the Hilti Complex.

The company’s products are available through approximately 4,000 retail outlets and are offered by independent brand partners who conduct book showings via social media, book fairs, and other sales channels.
