Sale of Subsidiaries | Sale of Subsidiaries During the quarter ended April 30, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its wholly owned Australian subsidiary, Seismic Asia Pacific Pty Ltd. for total contractual proceeds of approximately $660,000 U.S. dollars of which the Company received approximately $240,000 in cash at closing and an unsecured, non-interest bearing two year note receivable in the amount of $420,000. The agreement also included a working capital adjustment of approximately $114,000 payable to the Company. We expect to receive payment of the working capital adjustment in the second quarter. The working capital adjustment receivable and the note receivable were recorded as other current and other non-current assets, respectively, as of April 30, 2019. In August 2018, the Company completed the sale of its wholly owned Russian subsidiary, Mitcham Seismic Eurasia LLC for total contractual proceeds of approximately $1.2 million U.S. dollars. The proceeds are due in monthly installments of principal and interest, accruing at a rate of 9% per annum, with the balance due on or before August 31, 2019. The monthly installments were recorded in accounts receivable at April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019. As a result of the sale, the company recorded a loss of approximately $4.9 million including recognition of approximately $5.4 million of cumulative translation losses which had been historically recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, a component of equity.
