TSX runs higher on rate cut expectations
SAN FRANCISCO - Wag! Group Co. (NASDAQ:PET), a provider of personal services for pet owners generating $70.51M in annual revenue, has revised the terms of its financing agreement with Blue Torch Finance LLC and other involved parties, as per its latest SEC filing. According to InvestingPro data, the company operates with a significant debt burden while maintaining impressive gross profit margins of 77.31%.
The amendment, effective as of Monday, modifies several key aspects of the original agreement dated August 9, 2022. Notably, the company's delisting from a national securities exchange will no longer be considered a "Change of Control." Additionally, the amendment relaxes the company's financial covenants: the minimum revenue requirement and the liquidity amount that the company must maintain have both been reduced. This adjustment comes as InvestingPro analysis shows the company's current ratio at 0.51, indicating its short-term obligations exceed liquid assets.
Furthermore, Wag! has agreed to provide Blue Torch with more frequent 13-week cash flow forecasts. In exchange for these amendments, Wag! will pay a fee to Blue Torch, amounting to 2.10% of the term loans' principal amount outstanding prior to the amendment's effective date. This fee will be included in the final outstanding principal amount.
The details of the amendment, which are laid out in the 8-K filing, offer a glimpse into the financial adjustments Wag! Group Co. is undertaking. This strategic move is indicative of the company's efforts to manage its total debt of $19.83M and financial obligations more effectively while continuing its operations.
