During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company re-classified $36,750 of certain assets from property, plant and equipment to current assets as held for sale, as these assets met the criteria for classification as held for sale. These assets relate to the expected sale of three buildings and land in Portland, Oregon related to our Equipment & Solutions segment as well as two buildings and land in Boulder, Colorado related to our Vacuum & Analysis segment. The Company will be consolidating into one leased facility at each location and anticipates closing on both of these sales during the third quarter of 2019.
