QC Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) have historically sold certain loan receivables after the Company has pursued internal and external collection efforts. Until recently, the Company has not sold any loan receivables associated with its automobile sales business. The Company is planning to sell its automobile receivables on a regular basis going forward in order to maximize certain balance sheet assets. Accordingly, the Company recently completed the sale of approximately $16.8 million principal amount of its automobile loan receivables to an unaffiliated company. The Company received approximately $11.8 million in cash proceeds from this initial sale of automobile receivables.
The Company is using the net proceeds from the sale to make a prepayment of the term loan under its Credit Agreement, which term loan had an outstanding principal amount of $14.8 million as of September 30, 2012. The Company anticipates the term loan will be fully paid by December 31, 2012.
The Company contemplates selling automobile receivables on a regular basis going forward, the proceeds of which will be used to finance the Company’s automobile segment and related operations.
