2018 Acquisitions

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company held a $2.0 million note receivable related to the Drink Robust, Inc. (“Drink Robust”) disposition that occurred in September 2016. The note required interest-only monthly payments at a per annum rate of 4% beginning January of 2017 and principal and interest payments due monthly commencing in January 2018 and ending December 2032. Interest payments from January 2017 through December 2017 were made in the form of shares of the common stock of a manufacturing company. Cash was received for the January 2018 principal and interest payment; however, in April of 2018, the Company was informed that the note holder did not intend to make any future principal or interest payments due on the note. The Company had recourse to the personal assets of the note holder in the amount of $500,000 and entered into negotiations for settlement of the note in April 2018. On April 26, 2018, the Company forgave the $500,000 guaranteed portion of the note for 750,000 shares of common stock of the manufacturing company. Additionally, as part of the settlement, the Company acquired 78.5% of the remaining 80% ownership interest in Drink Robust, bringing its ownership interest to 98.5% with the payment of an outstanding liability to the Drink Robust distributor of $250,000. As a result of the payment, Drink Robust also obtained a three-year exclusive right of distribution for the Robust Energy Drinks in the United States. The Company estimated the fair value of the shares of the manufacturing company and the interest acquired in Drink Robust. The estimated fair value totals $450,000, which is net of the consideration of $250,000 owed to the Drink Robust distributor. As a result of the transaction, the Company impaired $1.55 million of the note receivable during the quarter ended March 31, 2018, with a remaining balance of $450,000 recorded within long-term assets at June 30, 2018. The Company accounted for the acquisition in the third quarter of 2018, when the transaction was executed and has finalized its estimate of the fair value of the shares acquired in the transaction, as well as its accounting for such ownership. The Company then acquired the remaining 1.5% interest in Drink Robust from an individual investor to complete its 100% ownership.

 

On May 25, 2018, the Company acquired a club in Kappa, Illinois for $1.5 million, financed by a $1.0 million seller note with interest at 8%. The transaction provides for the purchase of the real estate for $825,000 and other non-real estate business assets for $180,000, with goodwill amounting to $495,000, which is deductible for tax purposes. Since the acquisition date, the acquired club generated revenues of approximately $442,000 that are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the year ended September 30, 2018.

 

On September 6, 2018, a subsidiary acquired the remaining 49% of TEZ Real Estate that it did not own for $1,550,000 in cash. The acquisition was principally funded by a loan on the property from a commercial bank. The Company accounted for the transaction as an equity transaction in accordance with ASC 505. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest was adjusted, in the amount of approximately $759,000 (net of tax), was recognized in additional paid-in capital.

 

2018 Disposition

 

On December 11, 2017, the Company sold one of the properties held for sale for $675,000, recognizing a gain of $481,000. During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the Company decided to offer for sale a real estate property in Dallas, Texas, which was a location of a recently closed club, with an estimated fair value of $2.0 million. During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company reclassified two properties held for sale with an aggregate carrying value of $7.2 million into held and used property and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018. Also, during the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company decided to offer four real estate properties for sale, with an aggregate fair value less cost to sell of approximately $2.5 million.

 

2019 Acquisitions

 

On November 1, 2018, the Company acquired the stock of a club in Chicago for $10.5 million with $6.0 million cash paid at closing and the $4.5 million in a 6-year seller-financed note with interest at 7%. The Company paid approximately $37,000 in acquisition-related costs for this transaction, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of operations. In fiscal 2019, the club generated revenue of approximately $5.0 million since acquisition date. In relation to this acquisition, on September 25, 2018, the Company borrowed $5.0 million through a credit facility with a bank lender. The loan has a 7% fixed interest rate with a maturity date in May 2019. The loan was fully paid as of June 30, 2019. Goodwill and SOB license for the Chicago acquisition are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill recognized for this transaction is not deductible for tax purposes. Noncompete is amortized on a straight-line basis over five years from acquisition date.
