Item 2.03 | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
On October 3, 2011, LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (the Company) drew down $35.0 million on its $75.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility governed by the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 13, 2009, by and among the Company, certain financial institutions, and Bank of America, N.A. as agent, as amended to date (as amended, the Loan Agreement). For a summary of the material terms of the Loan Agreement, including payment and acceleration provisions and covenants, which are incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference, see Item 2.03 of the Companys Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on each of August 13, 2009 and February 3, 2011.
The annual interest rate on the Companys current drawdown is 2.50%, provided that, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, such rate may adjust on a monthly basis. Over the next two months, the Company may draw down additional amounts or reduce the current draw amount under the Loan Agreement. The proceeds will be used to fund working capital needs. Cash flow used in operations tends to be highest in the third quarter and early fourth quarter, as collections from prior accounts receivables taper off and the Company invests heavily in inventory in preparation for the fourth quarter holiday season. Cash flow generally turns positive again in the fourth quarter as the Company starts to collect on holiday season accounts receivable. The Company anticipates repaying all drawdowns under the Loan Agreement prior to December 31, 2011.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements about managements expectations, including, without limitation, statements regarding anticipated use and future repayment of outstanding amounts under the Companys Loan Agreement and other anticipatory matters. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, will, or anticipate, or the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology. Actual results, levels of activity, performance, achievements or the timing of events may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The risks that could cause the Companys results to differ include, without limitation, highly changeable consumer preferences and toy trends, the Companys reliance on a small group of retailers for the majority of the Companys gross sales, the Companys growing focus on web-based products, weakness in the economic environment, the seasonality of the Companys business, the unexpected loss of members of the Companys executive management team, the Companys dependence on its suppliers for the Companys components and raw materials, the Companys reliance on a limited number of manufacturers, the Companys ability to maintain sufficient inventory levels, the Companys ability to compete effectively with competitors, the Companys ability to prevent other companies from using its intellectual property rights to develop competing products, third parties who claim the Company is infringing on their intellectual property rights, errors or defects in the Companys products, privacy concerns about the Companys web connected products, system failures in the Companys web-based services, retailer liquidity problems, the sufficiency of the Companys liquidity, the risk associated with international operations, continued compliance and associated costs with and/or changes in laws and regulations, any obligations to record impairment charges related to the Companys intangible assets, negative political developments, natural disasters, armed hostilities, terrorism, labor strikes or public health issues, continued ownership by one stockholder of a majority of voting power in the Company and the volatility of the Companys stock price. These risks and others are discussed under Risk Factors in the Companys filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Companys 2010 annual report on Form 10-K filed on February 22, 2011. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements or the timing of any events. The Company makes these statements as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise after the date of this report, except as required by law.
