Assets Held For Sale and Dispositions

In July 2024, CoreCivic completed the sale of an idled 390-bed facility in Oklahoma that was reported in its CoreCivic Community segment. The sale generated net sales proceeds of $3.4 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $1.2 million reported in the third quarter of 2024. In January 2024, CoreCivic completed the sale of a facility in Colorado that was also reported in its CoreCivic Community segment. The sale generated net sales proceeds of $8.0 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $0.5 million reported in the first quarter of 2024. The facility was classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2023. CoreCivic continued to operate the facility through the expiration of the related management contract in June 2024. In addition, during 2024, CoreCivic completed the sales of two unused parcels of land in Texas. The sales generated net sales proceeds of $1.9 million, resulting in an aggregate gain on sale of $1.6 million.

CoreCivic incurred an asset impairment charge of $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2024 associated with property and equipment at the STFRC based on a cash flow method for determining fair value. See Notes 4 and 10 for further detail regarding the terminations of the IGSA and lease agreement associated with the STFRC, which was reported in the Company's CoreCivic Safety segment.

During 2023, CoreCivic completed the sales of three community corrections facilities leased to government agencies that were reported in CoreCivic's Properties segment and one vacant parcel of land. The sales of these four assets generated aggregate net sales proceeds of $10.8 million, resulting in an aggregate net gain on sale of $0.8 million after transaction costs.

On July 25, 2022, CoreCivic entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the Georgia Building Authority for the sale of CoreCivic's McRae Correctional Facility located in McRae, Georgia, and reported in CoreCivic's Safety segment, for a gross sales price of $130.0 million. The sale of the McRae facility was completed on August 9, 2022. The sale generated net proceeds of $129.7 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $77.5 million after transaction costs, which was reported in the third quarter of 2022. CoreCivic had a management contract with the Bureau of Prisons ("BOP") at the McRae facility, which expired on November 30, 2022 and was not renewed. In connection with the sale, CoreCivic and the Georgia Building Authority entered into an agreement to lease the McRae Correctional Facility to CoreCivic through November 30, 2022 to allow the Company to fulfill its obligations to the BOP.

In addition, during 2022, CoreCivic completed the sales of three residential reentry centers in Oklahoma and Colorado and reported in CoreCivic's Community segment, two community corrections facilities leased to government agencies in California and reported in CoreCivic's Properties segment, and two undeveloped parcels of land. The sales of these seven properties generated aggregate net sales proceeds of $27.3 million, resulting in an aggregate net gain on sale of $9.9 million after transaction costs. Pursuant to the agreement to sell the Oklahoma property, in the third quarter of 2022, CoreCivic recognized an impairment charge of $3.5 million associated with the facility, based on its fair value less costs to sell.

Effective March 31, 2024, the Company's lease agreement with California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation was terminated and the California City Correctional Center became idled. As of December 31, 2024, CoreCivic also had one idled non-core facility in its Safety segment containing 240 beds with a net book value of $2.7 million, and an idled facility in its Community segment, containing 60 beds with a net book value of $1.1 million.

CoreCivic incurred aggregate operating expenses at these idled facilities of approximately $17.4 million, $12.2 million, and $9.4 million during the period they were idle for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The amount for 2022 excludes $3.5 million of operating expenses incurred at the West Tennessee Detention Facility and the Midwest Regional Reception Center during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The West Tennessee facility was idled upon the expiration of a USMS contract on September 30, 2021, and the Midwest Regional Reception Center was idled upon the expiration of a USMS contract on December 31, 2021. CoreCivic retained a certain staffing level at both facilities through the first three months of 2022 in order to quickly respond in the event the Company was able to enter into new contracts with government agencies promptly following the contract expirations. The Company also continued to incur expenses related to transportation services provided by staff at the Midwest Regional Reception Center during the first three months of 2022.

The Company estimated undiscounted cash flows for each facility with an impairment indicator. The Company's estimated undiscounted cash flows reflected the Company’s most recent expectations around potential utilization and/or sale of the facilities and projected cash flows based on historical cash flows, cash flows of comparable facilities, and recent contract negotiations for utilization, as applicable. The Company concluded that the estimated undiscounted cash flows exceeded carrying values for each facility as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

CoreCivic evaluates, on a quarterly basis, market developments for the potential utilization of each of its idle facilities in order to identify events that may cause CoreCivic to reconsider its assumptions with respect to the recoverability of book values as compared to undiscounted cash flows. CoreCivic considers the cancellation of a contract in its Safety or Community segment or an expiration and non-renewal of a lease agreement in its CoreCivic Properties segment as indicators of impairment and tests each of the idled facilities for impairment when it is notified by the respective customers or tenants that they would no longer be utilizing such facility.
