Goodfood Market Corp. (“Goodfood” or “the Company”) (TSX: FOOD), a
leading Canadian online meal solutions company, today confirmed
that, further to its previously announced negotiation with its
lenders, it has reached an agreement for an amended and restated
credit agreement with its existing syndicate providing bank
financing totalling approximately $10 million. The facilities
include a $5 million term loan, a $2.5 million revolving credit
facility, and $2 million in additional short-term financing and
come to maturity in November 2023.
Goodfood intends to use the facilities mainly to
refinance its existing credit facilities, for working capital
purposes and for capital expenditures. The facilities feature
updated financial conditions, including cash and financing related
covenants. As such, Goodfood is no longer in breach of
covenants.
“We are very satisfied to have worked closely
with our lending group and to have established credit facilities
that continue to support our strategic efforts to achieve
profitability in the first half of this fiscal year while exiting
the tolerance agreement entered into during the summer. Combined
with our cash balance and our continued cash flow and profitability
improvements, the credit facilities will provide flexibility to
help propel Goodfood into profitable growth in the coming
quarters,” said Jonathan Ferrari, Chief Executive Officer of
Goodfood. “As we complete the execution of Project Blue Ocean, we
are very pleased to count on the support of our lending partners on
our way to returning to future profitability and growth,” concluded
Mr. Ferrari.
