Note 23 – Sale of Repair and Maintenance Services Business



On September 30, 2015, the Company sold its railcar repair and maintenance services business for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000. The sale included assets of FCRS, which operated the Company’s railcar repair and maintenance services business, and FCSL, which owned a short-line railway. The net book value of assets that were sold was $14,283, which included accounts receivable of $2,776, inventory of $2,537, property plant and equipment of $7,740 and intangible assets of $1,230.  On September 30, 2015, $1,960 of the aggregate purchase price was placed into escrow (which is recorded as a long-term receivable) in order to secure the indemnification obligations of FCRS and FCSL under the asset purchase agreement relating to the sale and $451 was used to settle certain liabilities of FCRS and FCSL, resulting in cash proceeds to the Company of $17,589.  Twenty-five percent (25%) of the escrow amount, reduced by the amount of any pending claims, will be released to FCRS on each of the dates that are 18 months and three years after the closing date of the transaction and the remaining amount, reduced by the amount of any pending claims, will be released to FCRS on the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the transaction. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $4,578.
