Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations On March 10, 2020, Travelzoo issued a press release announcing that it was exiting its loss-making business in Asia Pacific. The decision supports the Company’s strategy to focus on value creation for shareholders by focusing on growing the businesses in North America and Europe. The Asia Pacific business ceased operations as of March 31, 2020, except for the Company’s Japan and Singapore units, which were held for sale. The Company has classified Asia Pacific as discontinued operations at March 31, 2020. Prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. The following table provides a summary of amounts included in discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

On June 16, 2020, in connection with its Asia Pacific exit plan, the Company completed a sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Travelzoo Japan to Mr. Hajime Suzuki (the “Japan Buyer”) for consideration of 1 Japanese Yen. The Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $128,000. The parties also entered into a License Agreement, whereby Travelzoo Japan obtained a license to use the intellectual property of Travelzoo exclusively in Japan in exchange for quarterly royalty payments based on revenue over a 5-year term, with an option to renew. An interest free loan was provided to the licensee for JPY 46 million (approximately $430,000), of which $133,000 was repaid in 2021, $113,000 was repaid during nine months ended September 30, 2023, and the remaining is expected to be paid off in 2023. The Company recorded this loan as current prepaid expense and other on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023. The Company recognized royalties of $9,000 and $13,000 for its licensing arrangements from the licensee in Japan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The Company did not recognize any royalty from Travelzoo Japan in 2022. On August 24, 2020, the Company completed a sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Travelzoo Singapore, to an unaffiliated entity, Finest Hotels Pty Ltd d/b/a Travelzoo (“AUS Buyer”), which is fully owned by Mr. Julian Rembrandt, the former General Manager of Southeast Asia and Australia of the Company for consideration of 1 Singapore Dollar. The parties also entered into a License Agreement, whereby the AUS Buyer obtained a license to use the intellectual property of Travelzoo exclusively in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore and non-exclusively in China and Hong Kong for quarterly royalty payments based upon revenue over a 5 year term, with an option to renew. The non-exclusive license in China and Hong Kong was terminated by Travelzoo. Travelzoo was not able to estimate whether the AUS Buyer will generate revenues based on the current uncertainties, and no amount has been recorded for future royalties under this agreement. The Company recognized royalties of $9,000 and $8,000 for its licensing arrangements from the licensee in Australia for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recognized royalties of $26,000 and $18,000 for its licensing arrangements from the licensee in Australia for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
