Divestiture Transactions and Discontinued Operations |
17. | DIVESTITURE TRANSACTIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
We review planned business dispositions based on available information and events that have occurred to determine whether or not a business or disposal group qualifies for discontinued operations treatment. The review consists of evaluating whether the business qualifies as a component of an entity for which the operations and cash flows are clearly distinguishable; whether it is anticipated that the cash flows of the component have been or will be eliminated from ongoing operations after the disposal transaction and by the end of the assessment period; and whether we will have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. Planned business dispositions are presented as discontinued operations when all three criteria are met. Additionally, we evaluate whether the component has met the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale. To be classified as held-for-sale, the criteria established by FASB ASC 360-10 must be met as of the reporting date, including an active program to market the business and the disposition of the business within one year. A business that has not been disposed of may not be classified as discontinued operations until the held-for-sale criteria are met. No depreciation is recorded during the periods in which a disposal group is classified as held-for-sale. Businesses that qualify as held-for-sale are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell in the period the held-for-sale criteria are met. For a business that is classified as held-for-sale and meets the discontinued operations criteria, all initial or subsequent adjustments to the carrying value of the component are classified in discontinued operations. Discontinued Operations In fiscal year 2013, we initiated a plan to dispose of BioFuels and as a result, the assets associated with BioFuels were classified as held-for-sale and the results of operations were recorded as income from discontinued operations. Assets of the disposal group previously classified as held-for-sale, and subsequently included in discontinued operations, included certain inventory along with plant and equipment. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, we executed a purchase and sale agreement with ReEnergy Lewiston LLC (“ReEnergy”), pursuant to which we agreed to sell certain assets of BioFuels, which was located in our Eastern region, to ReEnergy. We agreed to sell the BioFuels assets for undiscounted purchase consideration of $2,000, which was to be paid to us in equal quarterly installments over five years commencing November 1, 2013, subject to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement. The related note receivable, which ReEnergy paid in full in transition period 2014, was recorded in current and non-current assets of discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets as of April 30, 2014. We recognized a $378 loss on disposal of discontinued operations in fiscal year 2014 associated with the disposition. The operating results of these operations, including those related to prior years, have been reclassified from continuing to discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Revenues and loss before income taxes attributable to discontinued operations for transition period 2014, fiscal year 2014, fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2012, respectively, are as follows:
|  | Eight Months Ended December 31, 2014 |  |  | Fiscal Year Ended April 30, |
|  |  | 2014 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |
Revenues |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 3,316 |  |  | $ | 12,033 |  |  | $ | 12,865 |
Income (loss) before income taxes |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 284 |  |  | $ | (4,480 | ) |  | $ | (1,025 | )
We allocate interest expense to discontinued operations. We have also eliminated inter-company activity associated with discontinued operations. Divestiture Transactions In the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, we executed a purchase and sale agreement (“Agreement”) with the City of Biddeford, Maine, pursuant to which we agreed to sell the real property of Maine Energy to the City of Biddeford. We agreed to sell Maine Energy for an undiscounted purchase consideration of $6,650, which is being paid to us in equal installments over twenty-one years. The transaction closed in November 2012. In third quarter of fiscal year 2013, we ceased operations of the Maine Energy facility and initiated the decommissioning, demolition and site remediation process in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement. We have completed the demolition process, and are nearly completed with site remediation under the auspices and in accordance with work plans approved by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (“MEDEP”), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”). The time for completion of this project has been consensually extended by us and the City of Biddeford, and we expect to complete this project and transfer ownership of the real property to the City of Biddeford by, or before, spring 2015. We will continue to finalize estimates and obtain additional information regarding the estimated costs associated with the divestiture. Due to the inherent judgments and estimates regarding the remaining costs to fulfill our obligation under the purchase and sale agreement to demolish the facility and remediate the site, recognition of a loss on divestiture, which we do not expect, or a potential gain on divestiture is possible. Based on incurred costs to date and estimates regarding the remaining costs to fulfill our obligation under the Agreement, a reversal of excess costs to complete the divestiture of up to $1,000 is possible.
