Discontinued Operations, Goodwill and Intangible Assets |
Discontinued Operations, Goodwill and Intangible Assets | 3. Discontinued Operations, Goodwill and Intangible Assets ​ On October 12, 2019, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Maverick Purchaser Sub, LLC (Purchaser), an affiliate of American Securities LLC and Lindsay Goldberg LLC. Upon the terms of that agreement, the Company agreed to transfer the asset and liabilities constituting its Management Services business to the Purchaser for a purchase price of $2.405 billion, subject to customary cash, debt, and working capital adjustments. The purchase price includes contingent consideration of approximately $150 million attributable to certain claims related to prior work and engagements. The transaction with the Purchaser closed on January 31, 2020. ​ Additionally, in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, management approved a plan to dispose via sale the Company’s self-perform at-risk construction businesses within the next year. These businesses include the Company’s civil infrastructure, power, and oil and gas construction businesses that were previously reported in the Company’s Construction Services segment. After consideration of the relevant facts, the Company concluded the assets and liabilities of its Management Services business and its self-perform at-risk construction businesses met the criteria for classification as held for sale. Additionally, the Company concluded the proposed disposal activities represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results and qualified for presentation as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205-20. Accordingly, the financial results of the Management Services business and the self-perform at-risk construction businesses are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Current and non-current assets and liabilities of these businesses are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as assets and liabilities held for sale for both periods presented. Interest expense allocated to discontinued operations represents interest expenses for the discontinued operations’ finance leases and term loans, which are required to be settled upon the sale of the Management Services business. ​ The following table represents summarized balance sheet information of assets and liabilities held for sale (in millions): ​
