DISPOSED AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS |
DISPOSED AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | NOTE 4. DISPOSED AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Disposed Operations In May 2019, we sold our grid-tied central solar inverter services business to Bold Renewables Holdings, LLC ("Bold") for $1.00 dollar and Bold's assumption of certain product warranty obligations. In connection with this transaction, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement whereby we loaned Bold an aggregate $5.3 million between May 2019 and the first quarter of 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2021, Bold repaid the amount borrowed at a discounted amount in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The loan is now fully repaid, and the Loan and Security Agreement has been cancelled. As a result of the transaction, during the year ended December 31, 2019, we reduced our discontinued operations liabilities by approximately $10.9 million that were related to initial product warranty and reduced our other liabilities by approximately $22.0 million that were related to extended warranty service obligations as well as reduced other assets and liabilities associated with the continuing grid-tied central solar inverter service and repair business. Accordingly, we recognized a $14.8 million non-cash gain in Other income (expense) from continuing operations and an $8.6 million non-cash gain, net of tax expense of $2.4 million, in Income (loss) from discontinued operations. Discontinued Operations In December 2015, we completed the wind down of engineering, manufacturing, and sales of our solar inverter product line. Accordingly, the results of our inverter business are reflected as Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The effect of our sales of extended inverter warranties to our customers continues to be reflected in deferred revenue in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenue for extended inverter warranties and the associated costs of warranty service will be reflected in Sales and Cost of goods sold, respectively, from continuing operations in future periods in our Consolidated Statement of Operations as the deferred revenue is earned and the associated services are rendered. We no longer offer extended warranties related to the inverter product line.
