Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation | Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation Anterix Inc. (the “Company”) is a wireless communications company focused on commercializing its spectrum assets to enable its targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers to deploy private broadband networks and on offering innovative broadband technologies and solutions to the same target customers. The Company is the largest holder of licensed spectrum in the 900 MHz band (896 - 901 / 935 - 940 MHz) with nationwide coverage throughout the contiguous United States, Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico. On May 13, 2020, the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) approved the Report and Order (the “Report and Order”) to modernize and realign the 900 MHz band to increase its usability and capacity by allowing it to be utilized for the deployment of broadband networks, technologies and solutions. The Report and Order was published in the Federal Register on July 16, 2020 and became effective on August 17, 2020. The Company is now engaged in qualifying for and securing broadband licenses from the FCC. At the same time, the Company is pursuing opportunities to lease the broadband spectrum it secures to its targeted utility and critical infrastructure customers. The Company was originally incorporated in California in 1997 and reincorporated in Delaware in 2014. In November 2015, the Company changed its name from Pacific DataVision, Inc. to pdvWireless, Inc. In August 2019, the Company changed its name from pdvWireless, Inc. to Anterix Inc. The Company maintains offices in Woodland Park, New Jersey, McLean, Virginia and Abilene, Texas. Business Developments In September 2021, the Company entered into a long-term lease agreement of 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum with Evergy, Inc. (“Evergy”) (the “Evergy Agreement”). The Evergy service territories covered by the Evergy Agreement are in Kansas and Missouri with a population of approximately 3.9 million people. The Evergy Agreement is for a term of up to 40 years, comprised of an initial term of 20 years with two 10-year renewal options for additional payments. The Company received full prepayment of $30.2 million for the initial 20-year term in October 2021. During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company leased to Evergy the first deliverable of 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses for 45 counties. The revenue recognized for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $0.1 million. In February 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with San Diego Gas & Electric Company, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy (“SDG&E”), to provide 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum throughout SDG&E’s California service territory, including San Diego and Imperial Counties and portions of Orange County for a total payment of $50.0 million. The total payment of $50.0 million is comprised of an initial payment of $20.0 million received in February 2021 and the remaining $30.0 million payment, which is due through fiscal year 2024 as the Company delivers the associated broadband licenses to SDG&E and the relevant cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company delivered to SDG&E 1.4 x 1.4 cleared Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband license related to Imperial County and received a milestone payment of $0.2 million. See Note 9 Contingencies for further discussion. On May 18, 2022, the Company issued Motorola 500,000 shares of its common stock (the “Shares”). Motorola received the Shares by electing to convert 500,000 Class B Units (the “Units”) it held in the Company’s subsidiary, PDV Spectrum Holding Company, LLC (the “Subsidiary”). Motorola acquired the Units in September 2014 in connection with a Spectrum Lease Agreement between Motorola and the Subsidiary (the “2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement”). Under the 2014 Motorola Spectrum Agreement, Motorola leased a portion of the Company’s narrowband spectrum, which was held by the Subsidiary, in consideration for an upfront, fully-paid leasing fee of $7.5 million and a $10.0 million investment in the Units. Motorola had the right at any time to convert its Units into the Shares, representing a conversion price of $20.00 per share. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates The unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on May 26, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”). In the Company’s opinion all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. The Company believes that the disclosures made in the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year. The Company is also required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the report amounts. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the applicable period. Accordingly, actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Correction of Immaterial Errors Depreciation, disposals and impairments In connection with preparing its financial statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company determined that it understated depreciation and overstated loss on disposal of long-lived assets in its Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021. In March 2021, the Company classified idled assets as Held for Future Use and suspended the depreciation for these assets. The Company determined that the depreciation should have been recognized evenly over the life of the asset without regard to whether the assets have been placed in service or in use. Additionally, the Company reported disposals of assets that were in-use and misclassified certain disposals as impairments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021. The following table is a comparison of the results of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, as a result of the correction of the immaterial error (in thousands except per share data):
| For the Three months ended September 30, 2021 |  | For the Six months ended September 30, 2021

Share retirement In connection with preparing its financial statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company determined that it incorrectly presented additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit in its Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the period ended September 30, 2021. The Company previously reported the retirement of shares from a May 2021 option exercise as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. The retirement of shares should have been reported as an increase to accumulated deficit. This transaction was presented in the stock option exercises line within the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. However, the Company should have reported this transaction in a separate line, retirement of common stock, along with the retirement of shares from the Company’s share repurchase program (refer to Note 7 Stockholders’ Equity for further discussion on the Company’s share repurchase program). Additionally, as a result of this error, the Company incorrectly omitted the shares surrendered from stock option exercises non-cash disclosure. The following table is a comparison of the reported financial position, changes to stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of September 30, 2021, as a result of the correction of immaterial errors (in thousands):
| For the period ended September 30, 2021

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and has subsequently modified several areas of the Accounting Standards Codification 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, in order to provide additional clarity and improvements. The new standard requires entities to use a Current Expected Credit Loss impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under this model, an entity would recognize an impairment allowance equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows that the entity does not expect to collect from financial assets measured at amortized cost within the scope of the standard. The entity’s estimate would consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, which will result in recognition of lifetime expected credit losses. As the Company was previously a smaller reporting company, the standard updates would have been effective beginning April 2023, however, due to the transition to a large accelerated filer during the 2022 fiscal year, the updates were effective for the Company as of the fiscal year end 2022. The Company adopted the new standard effective March 31, 2022, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements While there have been accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date, these updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
