Assets Held for Sale

The company repurchases distribution rights from IDPs in circumstances when the company decides to exit a territory or, in some cases, when the IDP elects to terminate its relationship with the company. In most distributor agreements, if the company decides to exit a territory or stop using the independent distribution model in a territory, the company is contractually required to purchase the distribution rights from the IDP. In the event an IDP terminates its relationship with the company, the company, although not legally obligated, may repurchase and operate those distribution rights as a company-owned territory. The IDPs may also sell their distribution rights to another person or entity. Distribution rights purchased from IDPs and operated as company-owned territories are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line item “Assets Held for Sale” while the company actively seeks another IDP to purchase the distribution rights for the territory.  Distribution rights held for sale and operated by the company are sold to IDPs at fair market value pursuant to the terms of a distributor agreement. There are multiple versions of the distributor agreement in place at any given time and the terms of such distributor agreements vary.  

During fiscal 2018, the company decided to sell its Tulsa, Oklahoma plant.  As a result, we recorded an impairment of $0.5 million during fiscal 2018. The company sold a closed plant in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, which was reclassified to assets held for sale in fiscal 2017, during the third quarter of fiscal 2019.  The company received $1.9 million and recognized a gain of $0.8 million at the time of sale.   The gain on sale is recognized in the restructuring and related impairment charges line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Additional assets recorded in assets held for sale are for property, plant and equipment. The carrying values of assets held for sale are not amortized and are evaluated for impairment as required.
