DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

NOTE 2 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

On July 1, 2022, the Company determined that the building located at 520 Broad Street in Newark, New Jersey, and an associated 800-car public garage (the “520 Property”) met the held-for-sale criteria and the Company has therefore classified the 520 Property as held-for-sale in the consolidated balance sheets at July 31, 2022 and 2021. The sale of the 520 Property also represents a significant strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Therefore, the Company has classified the results of operations related to the 520 Property as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Depreciation on the 520 Property has ceased on July 1, 2022, as a result of the Property being classified as held-for-sale.

 

During the third and fourth quarters of 2022, the buyer deposited a total of $3.25 million in non-refundable deposits in escrow as part of the full purchase price of the 520 Property. The Company has included these non-refundable deposits as a contract deposit in the prepaid expenses and other current assets section of the balance sheet, and a corresponding deferred liability presented in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

On August 22, 2022, Broad Atlantic Associates, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the sale of the 520 Property for a purchase price of $49.4 million.

 

The 520 Property was encumbered by a mortgage securing a $15 million note payable which was paid off in this transaction. Refer to Note 12 for further information on the note payable. After repaying the note payable, commissions, taxes, and other related costs, the Company received a net cash amount of approximately $33 million at closing.
