VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY	NOTE 3 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY In January 2018, the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE that was performing the project development activities related to the planned construction of a new natural gas-fired power plant. Consideration for the Company’s engineering and financial support provided to the project included the right to build the power plant pursuant to a turnkey engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services contract that was negotiated and announced. In the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2023, the Company was deemed to no longer be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and accordingly the VIE was deconsolidated. Prior to deconsolidation, the account balances of the VIE had been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including capitalized development costs that were included in property, plant and equipment. GPS had provided financing for development efforts pursuant to loans made to the VIE. The project owner was unable to obtain the necessary equity financing for the project, and GPS ceased providing project development funding. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company recorded an impairment loss related to the capitalized development costs of this project in the amount of $7.9 million, of which $2.5 million was attributed to the non-controlling interest. In March 2022, the project owner publicly announced the cancellation of this power plant project. In December 2022, prior to deconsolidation, the VIE settled on amounts owed for certain impaired development costs and recognized a gain of $1.6 million recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses, all of which was attributed to the non-controlling interest. The VIE distributed $0.7 million to the non-controlling interest. Subsequent to deconsolidation, the VIE provided payment to GPS of $0.4 million for previously written off promissory notes. This loss reversal is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings.
