Restricted Stock Awards
On November 3, 2022, the Company awarded a total of 150,798 restricted shares of Class A common stock to certain members of Company management under the Equity Incentive Plan. The grants are classified as equity awards and have four-year graded vesting. The aggregate grant date fair value of these restricted awards was $4.6 million.
Performance Stock Units
On November 3, 2022, the Company awarded PSUs of 84,371 shares of Class A common stock to certain executive officers of the Company under the Equity Incentive Plan. The grants are classified as equity awards. The aggregate grant date fair value of these restricted awards was $2.6 million. The PSUs provide for the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon vesting, which occurs over a three-year performance period based on achievement of the following metrics: (i) compound aggregate revenue growth rate and (ii) average Adjusted EBITDA margin. The final number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon vesting of PSUs can range from 0% to 150% of the number of PSUs initially granted, depending on the level of achievement, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. The achievement of performance goals is modified by the total shareholder return ranking of the Company against the Russell 2000 Index over the performance period and can increase or decrease the achieved award by up to 15%.
Treasury Stock
On November 4, 2022, the Company received a total of 5,267 shares of Class A common stock from employees for reimbursement of income taxes paid by the Company on behalf of these employees related to restricted stock awards that vested on September 30, 2022.
Amendment to Credit Agreement
On November 18, 2022, the Company and each of its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a First Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment” and the “Credit Agreement,” respectively). Among other things, the Amendment modified the provisions of the Credit Agreement requiring a prepayment of outstanding indebtedness following a disposition of property or assets exceeding certain thresholds. As a result of the Amendment, the Borrowers may receive up to $10.0 million in the aggregate of net cash proceeds from the disposal of property or assets (other than inventory in the ordinary course of business) in any fiscal year without the requirement to prepay any outstanding indebtedness. However, the Borrowers also may reinvest all or any portion of such net cash proceeds in fixed capital or operating assets, including real property (which reinvested amount will not count against the $10.0 million threshold), provided that (i) if any of the disposed property or assets constitute collateral under the Credit Agreement, the reinvestment must be in fixed capital or operating investments that also constitute collateral, (ii) the reinvestment (or entry into a definitive agreement providing for such reinvestment) must occur within 180 days after receipt of such net cash proceeds and (iii) if a definitive agreement to reinvest the net cash proceeds has been executed within such 180-day period, then the reinvestment must occur within 180 days after the entering into such definitive agreement. Any net cash proceeds not reinvested or subject to a definitive agreement must be applied to the prepayment of the outstanding indebtedness upon the conclusion of the applicable 180-day period.
Acquisition of HMA Plants and Disposition of Quarry
On November 18, 2022, the Company’s Alabama-based subsidiary acquired three HMA plants in the Nashville, Tennessee metro area from Blue Water Industries. The transaction extended the Company’s footprint into the fast-growing Nashville, Tennessee metro area. In connection with the transaction, the Company’s North Carolina-based subsidiary received cash and transferred ownership of its Daurity Springs Quarry in North Carolina to Blue Water Industries, while retaining aggregate sourcing rights from the quarry for its HMA plants in the central North Carolina area. The Company received net cash consideration of $28.0 million related to these transactions. The total amount of consideration for these transactions remains subject to post-closing adjustments with respect to inventory quantities and other matters as of the date of this report.
