Note J - Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our goods at a point in time based on shipping terms and transfer of title. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are reported within revenue.
Gross-to-net sales adjustments - We recognize revenue net of various sales adjustments to arrive at net sales as reported on the statement of operations. These adjustments are referred to as gross-to-net sales adjustments and primarily fall into one of three categories: returns, warranties and customer allowances.
Returns -The Company records an accrued liability and reduction in sales for estimated product returns based upon historical experience. An accrued liability and reduction in sales is also recorded for approved return authorizations that have been communicated by the customer.
Warranties - Limited warranties are provided on certain products for varying periods. We record an accrued liability and reduction in sales for estimated future warranty claims based upon historical experience and management's estimate of the level of future claims. Changes in the estimated amounts recognized in prior years are recorded as an adjustment to the accrued liability and sales in the current year.
Customer Allowances - Customer allowances are common practice in the industries in which the Company operates. These agreements are typically in the form of advertising subsidies, volume rebates and catalog allowances and are accounted for as a reduction to gross sales. The Company reviews such allowances on an ongoing basis and accruals are adjusted, if necessary, as additional information becomes available.
Disaggregation of Revenue - We generate revenue from the sale of widely recognized sporting goods brands in basketball goals, archery, indoor and outdoor game recreation and fitness products. These products are sold through multiple sales channels that include: mass merchants, specialty dealers, key on-line retailers ("E-commerce") and international. The following table depicts the disaggregation of revenue according to sales channel:

Note K - Leases
We have operating leases for office, manufacturing and distribution facilities as well as for certain equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 10 years. As of July 9, 2022, the Company has not entered into any lease arrangements classified as a finance lease.
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, current operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. The Company has elected an accounting policy to not recognize short-term leases (one year or less) on the balance sheet. The Company also elected the package of practical expedients which applies to leases that commenced before the adoption date. By electing the package of practical expedients, the Company did not need to reassess the following; whether any existing contracts are or contain leases, the lease classification for any existing leases and initial direct costs for any existing leases.
ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. When the implicit rate of the lease is not provided or cannot be determined, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of future payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Components of lease expense and other information is as follows:

The Lenders have now made available to the Company a senior revolving credit facility with increased maximum availability of $65.0 million (the "Revolving Facility"), up from $50.0 million, plus an accordion feature that would allow borrowings up to $90.0 million under the Revolving Facility subject to certain terms and conditions. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility was extended to January 21, 2027. The Company may prepay the Revolving Facility, in whole or in part, and reborrow prior to the revolving loan maturity date. The Restated Credit Agreement further extended the maturity date for the term loan facility to January 21, 2027.
As of July 9, 2022, the outstanding principal amount of the term loan was $43.5 million and total amount drawn under the Revolving Facility was $57.7 million.
Note O - Subsequent Events
On July 18, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Restated Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the First Amendment, the Lender increased the maximum availability under the senior revolving credit facility from $65.0 million to $75.0 million pursuant to the accordion feature in the Restated Credit Agreement. The First Amendment also adjusted the funded debt to EBITDA ratio financial covenant to 3:00to 1:00 as of the end of the Company's third and fourth fiscal quarters of 2022.

Overview
Escalade, Incorporated (Escalade, the Company, we, us or our) is focused on growing its Sporting Goods business through organic growth of existing categories, strategic acquisitions, and new product development. The Sporting Goods business competes in a variety of categories including basketball goals, archery, billiards, indoor and outdoor game recreation and fitness products. Strong brands and on-going investment in product development provide a solid foundation for building customer loyalty and continued growth.
Within the sporting goods industry, the Company has successfully built a robust market presence in several niche markets. This strategy is heavily dependent on expanding our customer base, barriers to entry, strong brands, excellent customer service and a commitment to innovation. A key strategic advantage is the Company's established relationships with major customers that allow the Company to bring new products to market in a cost effective manner while maintaining a diversified portfolio of products to meet the demands of consumers. In addition to strategic customer relations, the Company has substantial manufacturing and import experience that enable it to be a low cost supplier.
To enhance growth opportunities, the Company has focused on promoting new product innovation and development and brand marketing. In addition, the Company has embarked on a strategy of acquiring companies or product lines that complement or expand the Company's existing product lines or provide expansion into new or emerging categories in sporting goods. A key objective is the acquisition of product lines with barriers to entry that the Company can take to market through its established distribution channels or through new market channels. Significant synergies are achieved through assimilation of acquired product lines into the existing Company structure. In January 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of the assets of the Brunswick Billiards® business, complementing its existing portfolio of billiards brands and other offerings in the Company's indoor recreation market. The Company also sometimes divests or discontinues certain operations, assets, brands, and products that do not perform to the Company's expectations or no longer fit with the Company's strategic objectives.
Management believes that key indicators in measuring the success of these strategies are revenue growth, earnings growth, new product introductions, and the expansion of channels of distribution.
The Company continues to respond to the challenges and opportunities arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. Management cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's sales channels, supply chain, manufacturing and distribution nor to economic conditions generally, including the effects on consumer spending. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments, and such effects could exist for an extended period of time even after the pandemic ends. Due to the above circumstances and as described generally in this Form 10-Q, the Company's results of operations for the period ended July 9, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for fiscal year 2022.
Results of Operations
The following schedule sets forth certain consolidated statement of operations data as a percentage of net revenue:

Revenue and Gross Margin
Sales decreased by 5.4% for the second quarter of 2022, compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease in sales was driven by timing of sales in basketball, lower demand in the fitness category and a reduction in outdoor category sales, including archery and water sports. For the first half of 2022, sales were up 4.9% compared to prior year.
The overall gross margin percentage remained flat at 25.2% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, despite continued challenges related to the global supply chain, raw materials cost inflation , and labor constraints.
Gross margin percentage decreased to 26.3% for the first six months of 2022, compared to 26.8% for the same period in the prior year.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were $14.7 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $13.8 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.9 million or 6.3%. SG&A as a percent of sales is 15.5% for the second quarter of 2022 compared with 13.9% for the same period in the prior year. For the first half of 2022, SG&A were $25.2 million compared to $23.7 million for the same period in 2021, an increase of $1.5 million or 6.4%. As a percent of sales, SG&A is 15.1% for the first half of 2022 compared with 14.9% for the same period in the prior year.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the first half of 2022 was 21.9% compared to 21.3% for the same period last year.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
Total debt at the end of the first six months of 2022 was $101.2 million, an increase of $43.6 million from December 25, 2021. The increase in debt was largely driven by the funding of the Brunswick Billiards acquisition completed in January of 2022. The following schedule summarizes the Company's total debt:
In thousands | July 9, 2022 | December 25, 2021 | July 10, 2021 | |||||||||
Current portion of long-term debt | $ | 7,143 | $ | 7,143 | $ | 7,143 | ||||||
Long term debt | 94,040 | 50,396 | 42,857 | |||||||||
Total Debt | $ | 101,183 | $ | 57,539 | $ | 50,000 |
As a percentage of stockholders' equity, total debt was 64.9%, 39.2% and 34.5% at July 9, 2022, December 25, 2021, and July 10, 2021, respectively.
On January 21, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Restated Credit Agreement") with its issuing bank, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("Chase"), and the other lenders identified in the Restated Credit Agreement (collectively, the "Lender"). Under the terms of the Restated Credit Agreement, Old National Bank has been added as a Lender. The Lenders have now made available to the Company a senior revolving credit facility with increased maximum availability of $65.0 million (the "Revolving Facility"), up from $50.0 million, plus an accordion feature that would allow borrowings up to $90.0 million under the Revolving Facility subject to certain terms and conditions. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility was extended to January 21, 2027. The Company may prepay the Revolving Facility, in whole or in part, and reborrow prior to the revolving loan maturity date. The Restated Credit Agreement further extended the maturity date for the term loan facility to January 21, 2027. As of July 9, 2022, the outstanding principal amount of the term loan was $43.5 million and total amount drawn under the Revolving Facility was $57.7 million.
Each loan bears interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the interest period in effect plus the Applicable Rate. Applicable Rate means the applicable rate per annum set forth below, based upon Escalade's Funded Debt to Adjusted Ratio as of the most recent determination date:
Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio | Revolving Commitment ABR Spread | Revolving Commitment Term Benchmark Spread | Letter of Credit Fee | Commitment Fee Rate | |||||||||||||
Category 1 | 0.25 | % | 2.00 | % | 2.00 | % | 0.30 | % | |||||||||
| Greater than or equal to 2.50 to 1.0 | |||||||||||||||||
Category 2 | -0- | 1.75 | % | 1.75 | % | 0.25 | % | ||||||||||
| Greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.0 but less than 2.50 to 1.0 | |||||||||||||||||
Category 3 | (0.25% | ) | 1.50 | % | 1.50 | % | 0.20 | % | |||||||||
| Less than 1.50 to 1.0 |
The Applicable Rate is determined as of the end of each quarter based upon the Company's annual or quarterly consolidated financial statements and shall be effective during the period commencing the date of delivery to the agent.
In addition to the increased revolving borrowing amount and extended maturity dates, other significant changes reflected in the Restated Credit Agreement included: specifying that Indian's acquisition of the assets of the Brunswick Billiards business is a permitted acquisition; providing a $7.5 million swingline commitment by Chase; replacing LIBOR with the replacement benchmark secured overnight financing rate as previously contemplated; and adjustments to certain financial covenants relating to the fixed charge coverage ratio. Escalade's indebtedness under the Restated Credit Agreement continues to be collateralized by liens on all of the present and future equity of each of Escalade's domestic subsidiaries and substantially all of the assets of the Company (excluding real estate). Each direct and indirect domestic subsidiary of Escalade and Indian has secured its guaranty of indebtedness incurred under the Revolving Facility with a first priority security interest and lien on all of such subsidiary's assets. Escalade, Indian and all of the domestic subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement dated January 21, 2022 in favor of the Lender to continue the existing liens, previously existing under the original pledge and security agreements entered into on April 30, 2009, as amended, and thereafter for subsidiaries created or acquired after that date. The obligations, guarantees, liens and other interests granted by Escalade, Indian, and their domestic subsidiaries continue in full force and effect.
On July 18, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Restated Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the First Amendment, the Lender increased the maximum availability under the senior revolving credit facility from $65.0 million to $75.0 million pursuant to the accordion feature in the Restated Credit Agreement. The First Amendment also adjusted the funded debt to EBITDA ratio financial covenant to 3:00 to 1:00 as of the end of the Company's third and fourth fiscal quarters of 2022.
The Company funds working capital requirements, shareholder dividends, and stock repurchases through operating cash flows and revolving credit agreements with its Lenders. The Company expects that cash generated from its 2022 operations and its access to adequate levels of revolving credit will provide it with sufficient cash flows for its operations and to meet growth needs.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not Required.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Escalade maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, could provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company has evaluated, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the second quarter of 2022.
There have been no changes to the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred since the beginning of the Company's first quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
None.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021. These risks and uncertainties could materially and adversely affect our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Our operations could also be affected by additional risks or uncertainties that are not presently known to us or that we currently do not consider material to our business. As of the date of this filing, except for the additional risk factor set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, which risk factors are incorporated herein by reference.
Our business involves the potential forproductrecalls, warranty liability,productliability, and other claims against us, which could adversely affect our reputation, earnings and financial condition.
As a manufacturer, marketer and distributor of consumer products, we are subject to the United States Consumer Products Safety Act of 1972, as amended by the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008, which empowers the Consumer Products Safety Commission ("CPSC") to recall or exclude from the market products that are found to be unsafe or hazardous. Although recalls of our products have been infrequent, in the first quarter of 2022, we voluntarily recalled our Ping Pong Avenger table tennis table due to concerns that it could create a potential fall risk to consumers. Notwithstanding that we extensively and rigorously test our products, there can be no assurance we will be able to detect, prevent, or fix all defects and safety concerns. Under certain circumstances, the CPSC could require us to repurchase or recall additional products, even if we disagree with the defect determination or have data that shows the actual safety risk to be nominal. Any repurchase or recall of our products, monetary judgment, fine or other penalty could be costly and damaging to our reputation and/or adversely affect our brands. Furthermore, the occurrence of any material defects in our products could expose us to liability for warranty claims in excess of our current reserves, and/or to product liability claims that could exceed the limits of our insurance coverage, to the extent coverage may exist. If our warranty reserves and/or insurance coverage are inadequate to cover future warranty claims and/or potential product liability claims, our financial condition and operating results may be harmed.
