Investment in School Mortgage

 

On September 11, 2013, the Company issued a mortgage note (“Mortgage”) lending $2.1 million to a managed school partner (“Partner”). The note bore interest at a fixed rate of 5.25% per year with a five year maturity and it was secured by the underlying property. During fiscal year 2016, the borrower defaulted on the loan payment, and in March 2017 the Company received the deed of ownership to the property.

 

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company decided to dispose of the property and classified it as an asset held for sale, and included it in other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Also, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2017, management approved a plan to sell, and began actively marketing the property. The Company reduced the property’s estimated carrying value to $1.2 million, resulting in an impairment loss of $0.6 million, which was included in selling, administrative and other operating expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2017, the Company continues to market the property and determined that there had been no change to its estimated carrying value.
