As of December 31, 2011, the Company did not comply with the required fixed charge coverage ratio under the Credit Facility. On February 28, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Facility with its lender, under which the Companys lender waived this default. Prior to the default, the interest rate on the revolving and term loans varied between 50 and 250 basis points over the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility) or LIBOR depending on the level of the fixed charge coverage ratio.

Under the amendment to the Credit Facility, the interest rate on the revolving and term loans increased to between 250 and 450 basis points over the Base Rate or LIBOR depending on the level of the fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents a 200 basis point increase. As of March 31, 2012, $7.5 million of the outstanding revolving loan was based on LIBOR plus 4.50% (4.75% as of March 31, 2012) and the remaining outstanding revolving loan balance of approximately $2.0 million was at the Prime Rate plus 3.00% (6.25% at March 31, 2012). As of March 31, 2012, $3.5 million of the outstanding term loan was based on LIBOR plus 4.50% (4.75% as of March 31, 2012) and the remaining outstanding term loan balance of approximately $12,000 was at the Prime Rate plus 3.00% (6.25% at March 31, 2012).
As part of the amendment to the Credit Facility, the Companys fixed charge coverage ratio was not tested on January 31, 2012 or February 29, 2012 and the Company was required to maintain a minimum excess availability of not less than $2.5 million during the period February 1, 2012 through and including five business days following the Companys lenders receipt of required monthly compliance information from the Company for the period ending March 31, 2012.

Our profitability is primarily determined by our revenues, the efficiency with which we deliver products and services to customers, and our ability to control our costs. Although our revenues decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year, our gross profit increased and our net loss remained essentially unchanged when compared to the same period in the prior year. There were 64 billing days during the first quarter of 2012 as compared to 65 billing days during the first quarter of 2011. The change in the number of billing days negatively impacted our revenues, gross profit and net loss. Additionally, we continue to experience increases in towels and fuel costs attributable to increased usage as well as increased commodity prices for fuel. These increases, as well as the reduction in the number of billing days, have had a significant impact on our gross margin and net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2012.
