Sale of Assets to Infinity Labs SD, Inc. and Discontinued Operations

 

On June 24, 2020, the Company closed on an asset purchase agreement for the sale of its Micromed Laboratories division and testing facility, including all of Micromed’s assets, such as testing equipment, certain office furniture and customer list, with Infinity Labs SD Inc. (“Infinity”) for an aggregate purchase price of $850,000. On the closing date, the Company received $610,000 in cash from this sale which was adjusted for working capital, a credit of $100,000 for future testing services from Infinity over the next two years in lieu of cash, and $60,000 held in escrow for one year, subject to adjustment for certain indemnity claims or purchase price adjustments. The Company also retained its accounts receivables outstanding on the date of closing in the amount of approximately $81,000 and an insignificant amount of liabilities. As part of the transaction, Infinity also assumed the Petaluma lease for the office and lab space. The Company retained the warehouse space to store inventory and assets until September 30, 2020.

For accounting purposes, the Company determined that there was only one discrete component of the sale to Infinity. This component was the customer base and related services to be provided.
