Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Contingencies and Guaranty | Contingencies and Guaranty Contingent Liabilities SDG&E Refund Obligations In February 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with SDG&E, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy to sell 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum throughout SDG&E’s California service territory, the SDG&E Agreement, 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 payments which are due as the Company delivers the relevant cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses to SDG&E. As the Company is required to refund payments it has received from SDG&E in the event of termination or non-delivery of the specific county’s full 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum, it recorded the payments as contingent liability on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. A reduction in the contingent liability and a gain or loss on the sale of spectrum will be recognized for each county once the Company delivers the full cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband license(s) to SDG&E. In September 2022, the Company transferred to SDG&E 1.4 x 1.4 cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband license related to Imperial County and received a milestone payment of $0.2 million. In September 2023, the Company transferred to SDG&E the San Diego County broadband license and received a milestone payment of $25.2 million net of delivery delay adjustments of $1.1 million. This resulted in the recognition of a gain on the sale of spectrum and derecognition of the contingent liability associated with San Diego County. See Note 3 Intangible Assets for further discussion on the sale of intangible assets. Subsequent to the derecognition of the contingent liability related to the delivery of San Diego County license, the remaining contingent liability balance of $1.4 million was classified as a short-term liability due to the expected timing of delivery. Xcel Energy Guaranty In October 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Xcel Energy providing Xcel Energy dedicated long-term usage of the Company’s 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum for a term of 20 years throughout Xcel Energy’s service territory in eight states the Xcel Energy Agreement. In connection with Xcel Energy Agreement, the Company entered into a guaranty agreement, under which the Company guaranteed the delivery of the relevant 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses in Xcel Energy’s service territory in eight states along with other commercial obligations. In the event of default or non-delivery of the specific territory’s 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum, the Company is required to refund payments it has received. In addition, to the extent Anterix has performed any obligations, the Company’s liability and remaining obligations under the Xcel Energy Agreement will extend only to the remaining unperformed obligations. The Company recorded $29.2 million in deferred revenue in connection with the prepayments received as of September 30, 2023. The Company commenced delivery of the relevant cleared 900 MHz Broadband Spectrum and the associated broadband licenses in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 and will continue through 2029. The revenue recognized for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, was approximately $0.4 million. As of September 30, 2023, the maximum potential liability of future undiscounted payments under this agreement is approximately $28.8 million. Litigation From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation that arises from the ordinary operations of the business, such as contractual or employment disputes or other general actions. The Company is not involved in any material legal proceedings at this time. Pandemic and Macroeconomic Conditions Recent macroeconomic events, including the outbreak of COVID-19, inflation, and geopolitical matters, have increased operating costs and could increase production costs or result in delays in customer contracting or the availability of equipment necessary for the deployment of our target customers’ planned PLTE projects. The Company continues to closely monitor these risks. Although difficult to quantify, the Company believes the current macroeconomic environment, including inflation, may have an adverse effect on the Company’s target customers’ businesses, which may harm the Company’s commercialization efforts and negatively impact the Company’s revenues and liquidity. If the Company is not able to control its higher operating costs or if the Company’s commercialization efforts are slowed or negatively impacted, continued periods of high inflation could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.
