On November 1, 2018, the Company announced the initiation of a process to potentially divest of its management services service line

, which operates as MedData,

to allow the Company to focus on its core physician services business. The Company determined that the criterion to classify the management services service line as assets held for sale within the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets were met at March 31, 2019 and continue to be met at September 30, 2019. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of that service line were classified as current assets and liabilities held for sale at September 30, 2019 as the Company expect

to divest of the management services organization within twelve months of March 31, 2019.

In October 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with an affiliate of Frazier Healthcare Partners to divest of MedData, which transaction closed on October 31, 2019. See Note 15 – Subsequent Event.

In addition, in accordance with accounting guidance for discontinued operations, the expected divestiture of the management services service line was deemed to represent a fundamental strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations, and accordingly, the operating results of the service line were reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 with prior periods recast to conform with the current period presentation.

The classification to assets held for sale impacted the net book value of the assets and liabilities expected to be transferred upon sale. The estimated fair value of the management services service line was initially determined at March 31, 2019 based on an estimated market value along with estimated broker, accounting, legal and other costs to sell. The Company deemed the carrying amount of other assets within the service line, specifically accounts receivable and property and equipment, to represent fair value and therefore recorded a

non-cash

charge during the first quarter of 2019 of $285.0 million against goodwill, which represented the difference between the estimated fair value of the management services service line and the carrying amount of the net assets held for sale. Recognition of the charge against goodwill resulted in a tax benefit which generated an additional $36.6 million deferred tax asset that increased the fair value of the service line. An incremental

non-cash

charge is then required to reduce the service line to its previously determined fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded the incremental

non-cash

charge of $36.6 million for a total

non-cash

charge of $321.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019, reducing the goodwill balance of the management services service line to zero. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, an incremental

non-cash

charge of $50.0 million was recorded based on new information obtained during the quarter with respect to the estimated market value of the management services service line. This

non-cash

charge was recorded against amortizing intangible assets. Recognition of the incremental

non-cash

charge resulted in a tax benefit which generated an additional $16.4 million deferred tax asset that increased the fair value of the service line. An incremental

non-cash

charge is then required to reduce the service line to its previously determined fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded the incremental

non-cash

charge of $16.4 million for a total

non-cash

charge of $66.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019. Upon completion of a divestiture, the Company could record an additional gain or loss on disposal at the time final net proceeds are determined.
