Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 5, 2026, America’s
Car-Mart, Inc., (the “Company”) reported that the agent (the “Agent”) and the lenders (the “Lenders”)
under the Company’s Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2025 (the “Credit Agreement”), agreed not to exercise remedies
under the Credit Agreement as a result of actual or anticipated defaults or events of default under the Credit Agreement (the “Lender
Forbearance”) for a specified time period, which was subsequently extended through June 12, 2026.
The Company reports that discussions with the Agent and the Lenders remain
active, constructive, and productive. The Company believes the parties have made significant progress and are nearing an amendment to
the Credit Agreement that will resolve, at least on an interim basis, concerns related to anticipated or actual defaults under the Credit
Agreement. To allow the parties time to complete this work and finalize the amendment, on June 12, 2026, the Company requested and the
Agent and Lenders agreed to extend the period covered by the Lender Forbearance through June 19, 2026.
While the Company believes that an agreement on an amendment to the Credit
Agreement can be reached with the Agent and the Lenders, there can be no assurance that these discussions will result in any definitive
amendment.
Forward-Looking Statements.
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, regarding, among other things, the negotiation and anticipated completion of an amendment to the Credit Agreement and the substance of such amendment. These forward-looking statements reflect management’s current views and beliefs and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from those expressed or implied. Factors which could cause actual results or events to differ include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to successfully negotiate and execute an amendment to the Credit Agreement on terms acceptable to Company, the Agent and the Lenders and consistent with the Company’s current expectations and beliefs, general economic conditions, and other factors. Such other factors
include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described in the Company’s most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
