DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE |
NOTE 3 | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
Considering the recurring losses incurred by the retail segment, in July 2023, the Company decided to cease operations of its retail distribution segment (“Retail Exit”). The primary assets of the retail segment are inventory and accounts receivable. The Company expects to sell, liquidate, or otherwise dispose of remaining retail inventory by June 30, 2024, and to collect remaining retail accounts receivable by the end of Fiscal 2024. After this time, we expect to have no further significant continuing involvement with the retail distribution segment. The Retail Exit is considered a strategic shift that will have a significant impact on the Company’s operations and financial results. The inventory of the retail segment meets the criteria to be considered “held-for-sale” in accordance with ASC 205-20, “Discontinued Operations.” Accordingly, the retail inventory is classified on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as “discontinued assets held for sale” at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, and the results of operations for the retail segment have been classified as “Discontinued Operations” on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The condensed consolidated balance sheets and results of operations for comparable prior periods have been reclassified to conform to this presentation in accordance with the accounting guidance. The total amount related to the discontinued retail segment included in Due to Forward China on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was approximately $698,000 and $1,002,000 at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The following table presents the major classes of the “Income / loss from discontinued operations, net of tax” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
