ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On July 17, 2017, TESSCO Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”) and its primary operating subsidiaries, as co-borrowers, and the administrative agent and lenders party thereto, entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”), effective as of July 13, 2017, to amend select terms of the Credit Agreement dated June 24, 2016 (the "Credit Agreement") by and among the co-borrowers and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent and lender, and Wells Fargo Bank NA, as lender, for the Company's existing $35 million senior asset backed revolving credit facility.  Capitalized terms used herein but not defined have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment.

Pursuant to the First Amendment, the term "Availability" as used in the Credit Agreement was amended for a period of time ending no later than October 31, 2017, to allow for the inclusion of an additional sum when calculating "Availability" for certain limited purposes.  This additional sum is equal to the lesser of $10 million, and the amount by which the Borrowing Base exceeds $35 million.  This does not increase the $35 million Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, but will allow the Company greater flexibility under the Credit Agreement for a limited period of time in response to business opportunities the Company is pursuing.  

The discussion of the First Amendment as set forth in this Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by the actual terms and provisions of the First Amendment, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated fully herein by this reference, and of the Credit Agreement.

 

ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

 

On July 18, 2017, TESSCO Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release which contained, among other things, an announcement of the Company’s financial results for the first quarter ended June 25, 2017.  A copy of the Press Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.

The information in this Item 2.02, including the information in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto pertaining to this Item 2.02, is furnished solely pursuant to Item 2.02 of this Form 8-K.  Consequently, pursuant to this Item 2.02, it is not deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section.  It may only be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Securities Act of 1933 if such subsequent filing specifically references this Item 2.02 of this Form 8-K.
