Marcus A. Lemonis, Chairman and CEO, stated, "Our Company's explosive same store sales plus additional acquisitions and openings, coupled with another year of an unprecedented level of profitability has earned us a multi-year facility. Our top line outlook for 2014 remains positive, our tight inventory controls and right sized SGA has us well positioned for another solid financial performance."
